Figure incontournable de l’abstraction, Joan Mitchell (1925-1992) a trouvé une inspiration inépuisable en la présence de ses chiens. Compagnons fidèles l’accompagnant entre New York et Paris, en passant par sa propriété de Vétheuil, ils sont les seules âmes admises dans son studio lorsqu’elle y travaille. Parmi eux, Patou, un épagneul breton, et Iva, un berger allemand, ont été particulièrement importants, et nombre de ses tableaux portent le nom de ses chiens. Richement illustré d’œuvres de l’artiste et de photographies d’archives, cet ouvrage ouvre les portes de son intimité et laisse entrevoir son processus de création. Joan Mitchell et ses chiens est le troisième livre de la collection Amigos Forever (dont le titre est un clin d’œil à Picasso et Lump) qui propose un regard sur la vie et l’œuvre de grands artistes et amoureux de l’art du XXe et du XXIe siècle sous l’angle de la relation aux « chiens de leur vie ». Des ouvrages érudits et légers, confiés aux meilleurs spécialistes, mêlant témoignages et récits, citations, photographies d’archive et reproductions d’œuvres, qui invitent à une approche singulière, entre sensibilité et humour, de la vie et de l’œuvre de Pablo Picasso, Joan Mitchell, Andy Warhol, Francis Picabia, Pierre Bonnard, David Hockney, William Wegman, ou encore Gertrude Stein, Peggy Guggenheim, Yves Saint Laurent…

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. From Joan Mitchell's very first dog, to Marion, Madeleine and Prunelle, all of them cherished companions in her life and work. Joan Mitchell and her dogs: a love story. Joan Mitchell, an extraordinary figure in 20th-century art, remains one of the most celebrated painters of the Abstract Expressionist movement. Born in 1925, in Chicago, Illinois, she grew to redefine abstraction, blending emotional intensity with lyrical beauty. Her work, characterised by dynamic brushstrokes, vivid colours, and profound emotional depth, established her as a towering presence in a predominantly male art world. Joan Mitchell had 13 dogs. Georges du Soleil, a black poodle, was one of Joan Mitchell's beloved canine companions. Known for her deep affection for animals, Mitchell treasured Georges as a constant presence in her life during her years in France. Georges, like her other pets, was more than just a companion; he was part of the vibrant, dynamic environment that nourished her creativity and her ability to channel emotion into her art. Dogs are objects of love (I suppose people could be? Sometimes) wrote Joan Mitchell. From her first dog, the adored Georges du Soleil, to Skye Terriers Idee, Isabelle, and Ibertelle (Bertie), Brittany Spaniel Patou, German Shepherds Iva, Marion, and Madeleine, and not forgetting Prunelle and Belle-Bete; all of them cherished companions in her life and work, all of them celebrated here.
