Michael Doran has gathered texts by contemporaries of Paul Cezanne
(1839-1906)--including artists, critics, and writers--that
illuminate the influential painter's philosophy of art especially
in his late years. The book includes historically important essays
by a dozen different authors, including Emile Bernard, Joaquim
Gasquet, Maurice Denis, and Ambroise Vollard, along with selections
from Cezanne's own letters. In addition to the material included in
the original French edition of the book, which has also been
published in German, Italian, Spanish, and Japanese, this edition
contains an introduction written especially for it by noted Cezanne
scholar Richard Shiff. The book closes with Lawrence Gowing's
magisterial essay, "The Logic of Organized Sensations," first
published in 1977 and long out of print. Cezanne's work, and the
thinking that lay behind it, have been of inestimable importance to
the artists who followed him. This gathering of writings will be of
enormous interest to artists, writers, art historians--indeed to
all students of modern art.
