In 1889, avant-garde artists in Paris formed a brotherhood to promote a radical new direction in art. Adopting the name #Nabis—Hebrew for “prophets”—they aimed to capture subjective experience and emotion in their paintings, prints, and drawings. This volume focuses on intimate views of home and family by four Nabi artists: #PierreBonnard (1867–1947), #MauriceDenis (1870–1943), #FelixVallotton (1865–1925), and #EdouardVuillard (1868–1940). For Bonnard and Denis, this arena was ideal for depicting small pleasures and modest acts of life; Vallotton and Vuillard, however, hinted at the tensions simmering just below the surface. The first to delve deeply into the Nabis’ use of domestic life as the locus for #artisticinspiration, this gorgeous catalogue, distributed for @clevelandmuseumofart, is now available at the link in bio. #yaleuniversitypress #yale #yalereads #yalebooks #bookstagram #artbooks #booksofig #booksofinsta #booksofinstagram #booklover #beautifulbooks #art #arthistory #frenchart #modernart #impressionism #modernism #drawing #painting #printmaking #avantgarde #paris #france #findesiecle
