Krátky popis
Fact or fiction? An imaginative collection of statements about
Vincent van Gogh that challenges what we think we know about the
artist's much mythologized existence. Van Gogh is the most famous
artist in the world, yet our understanding of his life is full of
contradictions. Art historians, filmmakers, journalists,
psychologists and conspiracy theorists have offered theories on his
life and work, yet their views are often poles apart.Van Gogh has
been described as a suffering genius, a madman, the embodiment of
peace and compassion, a man of violence who was a danger to himself
and others, a religious fanatic and a Marxist. Where does the truth
lie and the myth begin? This book examines the continual rewriting
of Van Gogh's story since the first publications on the artist
appeared at the beginning of the twentieth century. Presenting a
collage of succinct facts and 'counterfacts', the text is drawn
from a wide field of sources: fellow artists, friends and family,
doctors and psychoanalysts, actors and writers, theorists,
crackpots and scholars.Conflicting statements go hand in hand with
an unconventional curation of images, which include postcards of
locations associated with the artist, photographs of a fraudster's
legal trial, a children's toy, a bottle label and a rusty revolver.
Turnbull presents a kaleidoscope of fact and fiction about the
world's most discussed artist - sometimes funny, sometimes
heartrending, always revealing - giving readers new insights into
the artist, his work and his legacy. Van Gogh himself would be
amazed not only to see what people have said about him, but also to
grasp the global phenomenon that he has become.A must-have for art
lovers and museumgoers, this book invites all readers familiar with
Van Gogh to challenge long-accepted ideas about the man and his
work.
