A hundred years after the death of Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920),
the time has come to re-examine the artist's controversial place in
Modernist art history. By examining a select group of outstanding
originals, this recent study celebrates his best work through
advances in our understanding of the painter's techniques. This
focused analysis of the artist, which centres on his maturity as a
sculptor and painter, includes characteristic examples across
Modigliani's major genres, especially portraiture and female nudes.
It is argued that Modigliani was the last great Italian Old Master,
moving as he did between Renaissance and Modernism. In his
self-chosen path of being an outsider among his contemporaries, his
unique sculptures and paintings explored the depth of beauty fused
with melancholy and suffering. Text in English and German.
