Gauguin: Metamorphoses explores the remarkable relationship between Paul Gauguins rare and extraordinary prints and transfer drawings, and his betterknown paintings and sculptures in wood and ceramic. Created in several discrete bursts of activity from 1889 until his death in 1903, these remarkable works on paper reflect Gauguins experiments with a range of media, from radically "primitive" woodcuts that extend from the sculptural gouging of his carved wood reliefs, to jewellike watercolor monotypes and large mysterious transfer drawings. Gauguins creative process often involved repeating and recombining key motifs from one image to another, allowing them to metamorphose over time and across mediums. Printmaking in particular provided him with many new and fertile possibilities for transposing his imagery. Though Gauguin is best known as a pioneer of modernist painting, this publication reveals a lesserknown but arguably even more innovative aspect of his practice. Richly illustrated with more than 200 works, Gauguin: Metamorphoses explores the artists radically experimental approach to techniques and demonstrates how his engagement with media other than paintingincluding sculpture, printmaking and drawingignited his creativity.Painter, printmaker, sculptor and ceramicist, Paul Gauguin (18481903) left his job as a stockbroker in Paris for a peripatetic life traveling to Martinique, Brittany, Arles, Tahiti and, finally, the Marquesas Islands. After exhibiting with the Impressionists in Paris and acting as a leading voice in the PontAven group, Gauguins efforts to achieve a "primitive" expression proved highly influential for the next generation of artists.
