Title : Cézanne - Bernard Fauconnier - book
Summary :
For the artist, to see is to conceive, and to conceive is to compose. Art is a religion. Its goal is the elevation of thought. Painting from nature is not about copying the objective, it is about realizing one's sensations. It all comes down to this: having sensations and reading nature. To work without concern for anyone and to become strong, that is the artist's goal, the rest is not even worth Cambronne's words." He rushes towards the motif. Paul Cézanne (1839-1906) is the man who walks. He sets up his easel, opens his eyes wide, searches the landscape to wrest his formula from it. When it doesn't come, he screams, destroys his unfinished canvases. In Aix, in Paris, people mock him, insult him, take him for a madman. He feigns indifference, suffers from it, breaks his friendships, neglects his loves, continues on the path he has chosen and that only he can glimpse: he knows that he is reinventing painting.
