Autodidacta en gran medida, Francis Bacon (1909-1992) desarrolló una habilidad única para transformar impulsos interiores e inconscientes en formas figurativas y composiciones intensamente claustrofóbicas.
Ganó notoriedad en el periodo posterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial y convirtió el cuerpo humano en su tema simbólico, que representa desfigurado, distorsionado y desmembrado, como si se retorciera y lamentara con una intensa carga emocional. Sus retratos fascinantes y a menudo grotescos, con extremidades que se sacuden, huecos y protuberancias monstruosas, además de estudios de los personajes son reflexiones sobre los desafíos y los traumas de la condición humana. Estas formas perturbadoras han sido también las primeras en manifestar una evidente temática homosexual en la historia del arte.
Este libro presenta la obra erótica, inquietante e inolvidable de Bacon, un trabajo transformador con frecuencia emulado, muy analizado y, sobre todo, sentido.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Largely self-taught as an artist, Francis Bacon (1909-1992) developed a unique ability to transform interior and unconscious impulses into figurative forms and intensely claustrophobic compositions.Emerging into notoriety in the period following World War II, Bacon took the human body as his nominal subject, but a subject ravaged, distorted, and dismembered so as to writhe with intense emotional content. With flailing limbs, hollow voids, and tumurous growths, his gripping, often grotesque, portraits are as much reflections on the trials and the traumas of the human condition as they are character studies. These haunting forms were also among the first in art history to depict overtly homosexual themes. A concise and gripping encounter with Francis Bacon, one of the most individual, powerful, and disturbing painters of the 20th century. Emerging into notoriety in the period following World War II, Bacon developed a unique figurative form, distorted, dismembered, and writhing with intense emotional content.
