Krátky popis
A groundbreaking reassessment that foregrounds Van Gogh’s profound
engagement with the industrial age while making his work newly
relevant for our world today &,nbsp, Vincent van Gogh
(1853–1890) is most often portrayed as the consummate painter of
nature whose work gained its strength from his direct encounters
with the unspoiled landscape. Michael Lobel upends this commonplace
view by showing how Van Gogh’s pictures are inseparable from the
modern industrial era in which the artist lived—from its factories
and polluted skies to its coal mines and gasworks—and how his art
drew upon waste and pollution for its subjects and even for the
very materials out of which it was made. Lobel underscores how Van
Gogh’s engagement with the environmental realities of his time
provides repeated forewarnings of the threats of climate change and
ecological destruction we face today.&,nbsp,Van Gogh and the
End of Nature offers a radical revisioning of nearly the full span
of the artist’s career, considering Van Gogh’s artistic process,
his choice of materials, and some of his most beloved and iconic
pictures. Merging a timely sense of environmental urgency with bold
new readings of the work of one of the world’s most acclaimed
artists, this book weaves together detailed historical research and
perceptive analysis into an illuminating portrait of an artist and
his changing world.
