Couverture de The Nabis and the Parisian Avant-Garde par Patricia Boyer

Résumé

A study of watercolours, drawings and prints by a group of young artists known as the Nabis who banded together in 1889. The two essays in this book discuss the Nabis' activities in relation to the artistic, dramatic, literary and social/political climate in which they lived and worked. They examine the work of the group in relation to popular avant-garde currents in fin-de-siecle Montmartre, and in the context of contemporary symbolist theory and art.
