Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) moved to Paris as a 22-year-old art
student and is regarded as probably the last true bohemien in
Montmartre. The exhibition catalogue to mark the 100th anniversary
of his death shows him for the first time as a leading member of
the avant-garde who carried the revolution of Primitivism well into
the 20th century. Modigliani's famous nudes, unusual portraits and
unique sculptures are contrasted with works by Pablo Picasso,
Constantin Brancusi and Andre Derain as well as artefacts from
so-called "primitive" cultures. In doing so the volume focuses in
particular on Modigliani's lifelong study of the art of
Primitivism, which also interested the artist friends who
influenced his work. Some 100 works are on view, including numerous
main works by Modigliani from the great museums and most important
private collections from America to Asia.
