Second Chance for Cézanne
Earlier this year, theBoston Globe proclaimed,
“There won’t be a show anywhere in the world this year to compete – in
ambition, scope, and sheer concentration of masterworks – with Cézanne
and Beyond. This wildly popular exhibit succeeded in portraying Cézanne’s staggering influence on
20th century art by juxtaposing works created by with
those produced by eighteen of his successors.Cézanne’s influence is well-known, as Malcolm
Gladwell readers may recall, but there’s no better way to appreciate it than seeing it for oneself.
For those who missed the exhibit’s stateside run, the accompanying catalog’s more than 500 images and provocative essays by PMA curators provide formidable substitute for the real thing.If this
book alone proves unable to satiate your artistic appetite, consider Picasso: Challenging the Past, which focuses on one of Cézanne’s most prestigious
followers.
