Poussin’s scenes of bacchanalian revelry, tripping maenads and skipping nymphs are often described as ‘dancelike’ and ‘choreographed’. The artist’s dancing pictures helped him develop a new approach to painting that would become the model for the French classical tradition. Shedding the sensuous, painterly manner of his early career, Poussin carved out the crisp, relief-like approach that characterized his mature work and set the precedent for three centuries of French art, from Le Brun and David to Cézanne and Picasso. He carried lessons learned from dance into every corner of his production.
This book brings together a key group of paintings and drawings by Poussin, exploring the theme of dance and dancers in his production for the first time. Focusing on the dancing pictures created in Rome in the 1620s and 1630s, essays connect Poussin’s interest in dance, his study of antiquities, and his formulation of a new classical style. Richly illustrated and engagingly written, this publication uses the prism of dance to cast Poussin in a new, fresh light.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neu -Poussins Szenen von bacchantischen Gelagen, trippelnden Mänaden und hüpfenden Nymphen werden oft als »tänzerisch« und »choreografiert« beschrieben. Die tanzenden Bilder des Künstlers halfen ihm, einen neuen Ansatz in der Malerei zu entwickeln, der zum Vorbild für die klassische französische Tradition werden sollte. Poussin legte die sinnliche, malerische Manier seiner frühen Karriere ab und entwickelte den klaren, reliefartigen Ansatz, der sein reifes Werk kennzeichnete und den Präzedenzfall für drei Jahrhunderte französischer Kunst bildete, von Le Brun und David bis zu Cézanne und Picasso. Die Lehren, die er aus dem Tanz gezogen hat, hat er in alle Bereiche seiner Produktion einfließen lassen. Dieses Buch versammelt eine Schlüsselgruppe von Gemälden und Zeichnungen Poussins und erforscht zum ersten Mal das Thema Tanz und Tänzer in seinem Werk. Die Essays konzentrieren sich auf die Tanzbilder, die in den 1620er- und 1630er-Jahren in Rom entstanden sind, und stellen eine Verbindung zwischen Poussins Interesse am Tanz, seinem Studium der Antike und der Formulierung eines neuen klassischen Stils her. Reich bebildert und ansprechend geschrieben, nutzt diese Publikation das Prisma des Tanzes, um Poussin in einem neuen, frischen Licht erscheinen zu lassen. (Text engl.) 144 pp. Englisch.
