Published to accompany the exhibition La Révolte de la Couleur held at the Musée d'Ixelles, Brussels, from November 2000 to February 2001, this substantial catalogue presents a selection of masterworks from the renowned Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection. Bringing together key paintings from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, it traces the emergence of colour as an autonomous expressive force and one of the defining developments of modern art.
The publication follows the artistic transformations that unfolded between Impressionism and the European avant-gardes, featuring works by Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Paul Gauguin, Raoul Dufy, Henri Matisse, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Emil Nolde, Lyonel Feininger and Wassily Kandinsky, among others. Scholarly essays explore the shift from naturalistic representation towards increasingly experimental approaches to colour, form and composition, illuminating the intellectual and aesthetic currents that shaped modern painting.
Richly illustrated throughout with high-quality colour reproductions, the volume serves both as an exhibition record and as a concise survey of one of the most influential periods in European art history. A valuable reference for collectors, scholars and admirers of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and early Modernist painting.
