One of my favorite artist is the painter
Paul Cézanne. Cézanne was a French artist born on 1839, he practices different
artistic styles along his life. We can found some romanticism painting at
first, then some of impressionism character to goes to the most outstanding of
his work that sometimes it is catalogued as post- impressionism. The symbolist
lecture, made in hands of Maurice Dennis and Emile Bernard is the one we handle
this days. From this lecture we can break down the "cezanian lesson"
that is the one that avant-garde takes as starting point. But, What is this
"cezanian lesson" ? The cezanian lesson begin with the next question:
¿ what is the characteristic language of paint? When Cézanne make this question
he is breaking with all history of art´s knew until his days. The main
operation of cezanne in terms of painting it is perspective deconstruction.
He
set a precedent indicating that perspective it was not constituent of paint, it
was more a social-artistically convention. With this sentences he spend some
time, learning about different possibilities of paint, mainly making
experiments in pursuit of found the essence of paint. And he found it: bi-dimensionality The avant gard that follows Cézanne will take his lesson and
his way of management himself with painting in an experimental style. I like
Cézanne because he was one of the painters that makes possible the avant-garde
and the development of arts ´till our days. The images in this post corresponds
to one of the main studies of Cézanne, almost all of this paintings receive the
name of Mount Victoria.Why is he considerer the father of the avant gard? Because he dedicated his life to study the painting, and he destroy some of the most important conventions at arts since renaissance. He is classed as being part of the impressionism at late 19th century but if we compare his work with another impressionistic paints we can see the real essence of Cézanne.
