Painting Arcadia aims to introduce a world-renowned painter, appreciated for the magnificence of his colors, the radicality of his visions, and his quirky Jarry-style humor, in a different way. Structured around the fundamentals of Bonnard's painting, this book seeks to avoid the pitfall of a strictly chronological demonstration in order to convey the profound unity of his work, the way in which the artist was able to harmoniously add together the different phases of his creation. From small paintings to large formats, from portraits to still lives, from intimate scenes to pastoral subjects, from urban landscapes to antique decor, Bonnard's work reveals an instinctive and sensitive artist. His palette of bright, vivid colors makes him one of the leading figures in modern art. Co-published by the Musée d'Orsay/Editions Hazan
