More about the book
As a member of the artist group Les Nabis, the French-Swiss artist Félix Vallotton (1865-1925) was at the artistic forefront of Paris during the fin de siècle. He became internationally renowned for his powerful black-and-white woodcuts, which were unparalleled both in style and technique as well as in ambience. They contain a latent tension or threatening quality and the humour is often paired with biting social criticism. This catalogue to an exhibition in the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, provides an overview of all facets of Vallottons oeuvre and offers a new perspective on this intriguing artist.
