An in-depth exploration of how the iconic artist created his works over the course of his full career

Among the most celebrated figures of modern art, Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920) has been the subject of many exhibitions and publications, but none until now has examined in depth how the artist created his paintings and sculptures. Drawing on research using the latest scientific techniques, the authors explore the artist’s reuse of materials in his early years; his pivot from artistic trends such as Cubism to engage with a stylized form of figuration; the timeline of his evocative sculptures; and the evolution of his approach from heavily worked canvases to more ethereal paintings. The richly illustrated book also looks at the role of Albert C. Barnes, an early collector of Modigliani’s work, in shaping the Italian artist’s critical reception in the United States. The Barnes Foundation today owns one of the most important groups of Modigliani works in the world. These, together with some forty other paintings and sculptures from public and private collections worldwide, are interpreted through the lens of new studies carried out by leading international museums.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent printing and reproductions. Very informative.
Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2023
Verified Purchase
I was hoping for an insight on Modigliani’s process, particularly his colors, and I not disappointed. Just read a few pages, basically one chapter which is about one painting, and a lot of good and clear information is provided. There are plenty of images and the reproduction and printing are absolutely top quality. Highly recommended to anyone with interest on this phenomenal artist.

5.0 out of 5 stars The catalogue to the 2022-23 Barnes Exhibition on Modigliani
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2023
This beautifully printed catalogue is a must for anyone interested in the career of Modigliani. The reproductions are some of the finest I have ever seen. This is probably due to the fact that the book was printed in Verona, Italy which has long been the center of book publishing in Italy. As someone who seriously collects art books this is one you want to own. An easy 5 out of 5 stars.
