Drawing on research using the latest scientific techniques, the authors explore the artist's reuse of materials in his early years; his pivot from artistic trends such as Cubism to engage with a stylized form of figuration; the timeline of his evocative sculptures; and the evolution of his approach from heavily worked canvases to more ethereal paintings. The richly illustrated book also looks at the role of Albert C. Barnes, an early collector of Modigliani's work, in shaping the Italian artist's critical reception in the United States. The Barnes Foundation today owns one of the most important groups of Modigliani works in the world. These, together with some forty other paintings and sculptures from public and private collections worldwide, are interpreted through the lens of new studies carried out by leading international museums. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for the Barnes Foundation \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Barnes Foundation, Philadelphia\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (October 16, 2022-January 29, 2023)\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarbara Buckley \u003c\/b\u003eis senior director of conservation and chief conservator of paintings at the Barnes Foundation. \u003cb\u003eSimonetta Fraquelli \u003c\/b\u003eis consultant curator for the Barnes Foundation. \u003cb\u003eNancy Ireson \u003c\/b\u003eis deputy director for collections and exhibitions and Gund Family Chief Curator at the Barnes Foundation. \u003cb\u003eAnnette King \u003c\/b\u003eis paintings conservator at Tate, London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 344\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.42 x 11.73 x 9.53 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 29, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51765775827232,"sku":"9780300267181","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/c8d11c0455cb5765283dee950f72296f.webp?v=1780279606","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/modigliani-up-close-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
