While interest usually lies only on the early and late work of this exceptional artist, the catalogue, containing more than fifty works of art, traces the development between these two periods. Accompanied by texts by well-known art historians, the reader is invited to follow Monet\u0026rsquo;s unusual treatment of reflections and shadows in his paintings. It allowed him to break loose from the modalities of representational logic and the pictorial object. And they made room for an aesthetic that helped to do justice to perception itself and to enforce a painting\u0026rsquo;s self-reflexive momentum.\u003c!--?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/--\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'\"\u003eExhibition: Fondation Beyeler Riehen\/Basel 22.1.\u0026ndash;28.5.2017\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45526269100296,"sku":"9783775742399","price":58.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775742399_7c654219-b5da-40a5-8cdd-9e325427af52.jpg?v=1744119821","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17982-monet","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
