2005160172Toulouse: Universite de Toulouse 2005. Softcover. All VG. Doctoral thesis. 3 volumes identically bound with acetate covers and black cloth spines. 1157 pages across the 3 volumes. Volume I: 428 pp. with no illustrations the main thesis. Volume II: pp. 429 - 1019; documents appendices bw photos. Volume III: The works of Villon listed and pictured. The works studied constitute the period from 1947 to 1963. It retains 943 letters from Villon to Espic and attached documents: biographical historiographic theoretical. The letters and documents are reproduced in the 2nd volume. These sources contribute to a better understanding of the production of the artist as a whole. The first part deals with the correspondence the guiding thread. Analysis description and methodological propositions are stated and lead to a reflection on the relations between the epistolary and the "writings of artists". Next comes a monographic study. The great stylistic passages of the graphic and painted work are studied. The role of Villon in cubism the "Golden Section" is reconsidered. The transition to abstraction and the return to figuration around 1935 are evaluated. After 1945 Villon's representative abstraction embodies the reassuring values of a traditional French painting supported by the art market and the institutions of the Fourth Republic.

Their works were accomplished during the half-century of modernity: expansion of capitalism development of transport which made it possible to travel the world . In terms of the arts this period saw the birth of a European space open to traffic and exchanges. All three travelers they discover places and grounds which fifty years earlier they would not have been able to access. Monet went several times to London on the Mediterranean coast to Belle-ÃŽle and as far as Norway. Hodler stays in Munich Paris Italy Spain. Munch the most "nomadic" of the three travels very often between the Scandinavian countries Germany Italy and France. The thematic route of the exhibition reveals the affinities of some of their research while the three men come to painting without being prepared for it by their social origins. Relentlessly they try to "capture" the intangible elements snow the sun at its zenith the clarity of the Moon water mountain peaks . marking the art of the end of the 19th century and the beginning. of the twentieth centuries through their innovative approach." - translated from French website description.
