Accompanying a major retrospective exhibition at the National Gallery of Art in honor of Marville's bicentennial Charles Marville: Photographer of Paris surveys the artist's entire career. This beautiful book which begins with the city scenes and architectural views Marville made throughout France and Germany in the 1850s also explores his portraits and landscapes s before turning to his photographs of Paris made both before and after the city's dramatic modernization in the 1850s and 1860s. Commissioned to record the city in transition Marville created one of the earliest and most powerful photographic series documenting urban transformation on a grand scale. Despite the importance of his work Marville has long been an enigma in the history of photography in part because many of the documents about his life were thought to have been lost in a fire that destroyed Paris's city hall in 1871. Based on meticulous research this volume reveals many new insights into Marville's personal and professional biography including the central fact that he was born Charles-François Bossu. He shed this name which means hunchback and adopted the pseudonym Marville when he began his career as an illustrator in the 1830s. With five essays by respected scholars this book offers the first comprehensive examination of Marville's life and career and delivers the much-awaited public recognition his photographs so richly deserve"--Provided by publisher.

A matte softcover book with white text on a red spine and a black-and-white pictorial front cover. xiv 302 pages; profusely illustrated in black-and-white. "Andre Kertesz 1894-1985 is one of the most important photographers of the twentieth century. In a career that spanned more than seventy years he made some of the most deceptively simple yet compelling photographs ever created. He sought to capture the poetry of modern urban life revealing its quiet incidents and odd occasional comic even bizarre juxtapositions. This book chronicles his art from his first works taken in his native Hungary just shortly before World War I to his highly celebrated photographs of Paris in the 1920s and 1930s and his studies of New York from the late 1930s to the early 1980s. Greenough and her colleagues have examined the extensive archive of diaries letters date books clippings and other memorabilia preserved by the artist himself. In their essays and an illustrated chronology they provide new insights into the development of Kertesz's life and art and its significance for twentieth-century photography. This book includes more than 250 reproductions and numerous excerpts from the photographer's previously unpublished correspondence and diaries." National Gallery of Art paperback books

ABOUT THIS BOOK: One of America's most innovative artists Romare Bearden 1911-1988 made colorful and passionate images that reflected his life in a time of creative ferment. His influences ranged from the old masters to African art as well as the world around him: popular religion and ritual jazz clubs and brothels the history and literature of his time and the places he lived the rural South Pittsburgh and Harlem the Caribbean island of St. Martin. The resulting images are fresh and evocative filled with quirky details and rhythmic forms. This authoritative and beautiful book which accompanies a major retrospective opening at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. provides a provocative and absorbing look at a beloved artist. The Art of Romare Bearden showcases compelling examples of his pioneering work: complex collages and photostats; watercolors gouaches and oils; little-known landscapes; his only known sculpture; costume designs; and book illustrations.

2008rif. 203951Washington DC /Houston: National Gallery of Art / Museum of Fine Arts 2008. Hardbound. VG/VG as new. Grey cloth boards with gray lettering on spine color illustrated dust jacket ix 207 pp. profusely illustrated with 179 color and countless bw plates. Published to accompany an exhibition held at the National Gallery in Washington DC. The Forest of Fontainebleau located about 50 miles southeast of Paris held a singular place in 19th-century art. Variously called "savage" "wild" "romantic" and "beautiful" by visitors Fontainebleau's topography was viewed in many ways that reflected the sensibilities of the time. This is the first English-language publication to examine the significance of the region to the plein-air tradition in France. The book highlights four pivotal figures in the evolution of landscape painting: Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot The;odore Rousseau Jean-François Millet and Claude Monet. It integrates into this history the photographers who worked at Fontainebleau including Eugène Cuvelier and Gustave Le Gray and explores the role the forest played in the development of early photography. It also considers the reception of paintings of Fontainebleau at the Salons and the influence of Fontainebleau on the advent of Impressionism. Contents as follows: Lenders to the Exhibition -- Map of Fontainebleau -- Landscapes Legends Souvenirs Fantasies: The Forest of Fontainebleau in the Nineteenth Century / Kimberly Jones -- Plates -- Discovery -- Topography -- Trees -- Rocks -- Village Life -- Nature and Observation -- Mystery of the Forest: Paintings of Fontainebleau at the Salon / Simon Kelly -- Infinite Museum: Photography in the Forest of Fontainebleau / Sarah Kennel -- Impressionists at Fontainebleau / Helga Aurisch.
