Giorgio Morandi: Works, Writings, Interviews

This volume presents the work of this private and enigmatic twentieth centuryBolognese artist. Influenced by the work of Giotto, as well as Cézanne, themetaphysical painters, and the cubists, Morandis work defies any label. Hisstill-lifes and landscapes are serene groupings of muted objects, yet Morandiprovokes a tension between them which speaks of spacial relationships,negative space, and nuances of light and color. His paintings seem to exist in aworld outside of time, luminous and full of mysterious life
