Product Description

Review

"'A lively and systematic study of Bacon's work. The book is clearly organised, helping to make complicated arguments easier to follow'. Modern Painters; 'an entertaining read' Art Monthly; 'A path breaking work on the aesthetics of sensation, the philosophy of colour, on form, and on painting in general, Francis Bacon is one of the most important, if not the most crucial, of all of Deleuze's writings.' Tom Conley, Harvard University"


Product Description

Francis Bacon is Deleuze's long-awaited work on Bacon, widely regarded as the one of the most radical painters of the twentieth century. The book presents a deep engagement with Bacon's work and the nature of art. Deleuze analyses the distinctive innovations that came to mark Bacon's style while introducing a number of his own famous concepts. Deleuze links Bacon's work to Cezanne's notion of a 'logic' of sensation, which reaches its summit in colour. Investigating this logic, Deleuze explores Bacon's crucial relation to past painters such as Velasquez, Cezanne, and Soutine, as well as Bacon's rejection of expressionism and abstract painting. Translated by Daniel W. Smith

5.0 out of 5 stars logical inspirational choice, 12 Aug 2007
By M. N. (London/Glasgow) - See all my reviews
A note from a painter (working in a cartoonish manic fleshyness) I came to this through Bacon, but left forgetting it was about him- in the best possible sense. The depth of understanding towards the picture plane, for example the meaning of movement and stasis of protagonists within the work. Reading painting unrelated, to say, the symbolic readings of Raphael. Deleuze seems to comprehend the artistic creative process (the near automatic) which is built upon logical process of a planned refinement. I only touch upon so little of this book. An awesome work which thankfully does not spell out anything in layman's terms. I read a chapter every month or so, and they stuck.
