This book commemorates the one-hundredth anniversary of the artist’s death. With over eighty color illustrations of forty major works, the publication presents the essence of Rousseau’s art of depiction. At its core is his fascination with the contradictory qualities of the tamed Western world and untamed, increasingly imaginary nature. Encounters with his works that have never before been presented make it possible to see Rousseau in an entirely new light. Going beyond the cliché of the “great naïve painter,” we discover a unique artist who opened up entirely new possibilities for modernity. \u003c\/SPAN\u003e(\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003eEnglish\u0026nbsp;edition ISBN 978-3-7757-2537-8)\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: DE; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: DE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: DE; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: DE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA\"\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003eExhibition schedule: Fondation Beyeler, Riehen\/Basel, February 7–May 9, 2010\u003c?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = \"O\" \/\u003e\u003cO:P\u003e\u003c\/O:P\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e \u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans\"\u003e| Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, \u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: DE; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: DE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA\"\u003eMay 25, 2010–September 12, 2010\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874870325512,"sku":"9783775725361","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775725361_28a68648-32ad-42a0-a5f5-87417b902584.jpg?v=1744097862","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16322-henri-rousseau","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
