Bertrand Tillier - Vues d'atelier This abundantly illustrate - Lot 73
Bertrand Tillier - Vues d'atelier This abundantly illustrated essay offers an insight into the opaque, mysterious world of the artist's studio - whether painter, sculptor or engraver - which, from the Renaissance to the present day, has never ceased to fascinate. From the moment the artist distinguished himself from the craftsman, establishing his autonomy and power, this space of invention and art-making has crystallized every curiosity. The multitude of paintings, engravings and photographs showing the studio attests to this, as do the written testimonies of journalists and the pages it inspires in novelists. If the workshop is a physical and utilitarian place, inscribed in the social world and urban geography, its image represents much more than its strictly documentary content. Beyond the place itself, it is supposed to paint a kind of portrait of the artist, distilling clues about his condition, his work and the aesthetics he defends or promotes. From Giorgio Vasari to Jeff Koons, the author delivers a series of reflections on social sensibilities and imaginaries through the figure of the artist within its walls. Citadelles & Mazenod 2014
