Pont-Aven has lent its name to one of the most famous schools of painting in modern art and is now automatically associated with Paul Gauguin and Émile Bernard. This new book reveals to a wider public the important collection that Alexandre Mouradian amassed in only a few years.
The name of Pont-Aven, a Breton village in France, is synonymous with a major school of painting in modern art and automatically associated with Paul Gauguin and Émile Bernard. In 1888, the two painters established a completely new style: Synthetism. Breaking with academic orthodoxy and heavily influenced by Japanese prints, they introduced novel aesthetic principles. In this superbly illustrated and insightful book, works from the collection of Alexandre Mouradian reveal the international scope of what was a haven for those artistsincluding Maurice Denis, Eric Forbes-Robertson, Henry Moretwho wanted to dare like Gauguin.
