Peu de temps avant son décès prématuré, l'artiste canadien Matthew Wong (1984-2019) est devenu un phénomène. Il a commencé à dessiner et à peindre en 2011, à l'âge de 27 ans, et en quelques années seulement, il a développé un style très personnel, utilisant des couleurs intenses pour peindre des paysages imaginatifs. Les Suvres lyriques de Matthew Wong sont inspirées de la peinture traditionnelle chinoise et de l'art occidental. Il a été particulièrement influencé par Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), non seulement en termes de style de peinture et de choix de motifs, mais aussi dans certains aspects de sa vie. Les deux artistes ont été autodidactes, et tous deux ont été confrontés à des problèmes de santé mentale. Matthew Wong vit sa propre vie reflétée dans celle de Van Gogh, et dit un jour : "Je me vois en lui. L'impossibilité d'appartenir à ce monde." Publié pour accompagner l'exposition au Musée Van Gogh d'Amsterdam, ce livre explore le lien artistique et personnel entre les deux artistes, faisant dialoguer environ 45 peintures et dessins de Wong avec un groupe de chefs-d'Suvre de Van Gogh.
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Joost van der Hoeven is a researcher at the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam.
Kenny Schachter is a New York-based artist, writer, and curator.
Richard Shiff is chair in art at the University of Texas at Austin. His seminal publication Cézanne and the End of Impressionism: A Study of the Theory, Technique, and Critical Evaluation of Modern Art explored the relationship between late nineteenth-century artists and their subjective relation to reality as a source for their art.
John Yau is an American poet and art critic.
Shortly before his early death, the Canadian artist Matthew Wong (1984-2019) emerged as a phenomenon. He started drawing and painting in 2011, at the age of 27, and within the space of just a few years had developed a highly personal style, using intense colours to paint imaginative landscapes.
Wong's expressively lyrical works were inspired by both traditional Chinese painting and Western art. He was especially influenced by Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), not only in terms of his painting style and choice of motifs, but also in some aspects of his life. Both artists were self-taught, acquiring their drawing and painting skills without tuition, and both faced mental health issues. Wong saw his own life reflected in that of Van Gogh, and once said: 'I see myself in him. The impossibility of belonging in this world.'
Published to accompany the exhibition at the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, this book explores the artistic and personal connection between the two artists, bringing around 45 paintings and drawings by Wong into dialogue with a group of Van Gogh masterpieces. Kenny Schachter, who knew Matthew Wong, contributes a personal introduction, which is followed by essays exploring the artists' biographical and artistic kinship.
