Once described as the most beautiful painters drawings in existence, Georges Seurats mysterious and luminous works on paper played a crucial role in his short, vibrant career. This comprehensive publication surveys the artists entire oeuvre, from his academic training and the emergence of his unique methods to the studies made for his monumental canvases. Accompanying the first exhibition in almost 25 years to focus exclusively on Seurats drawings, this volume presents approximately 130 works, primarily the artists incomparable cont drawings along with a small selection of oil sketches and paintings. In an effort to bridge the seemingly opposite goals of description and evocation, Seurat masses dark and light tones to abstract figures, exploits medium and paper to amplify radiating light, and engages with the Parisian metropolis, revealing urban types, the industrial suburbs and nineteenthcentury entertainment. Though Seurat is perhaps best known as the inventor of Pointillism, this volume demonstrates his tremendous achievement as a draftsman and his fundamental importance to the art of the twentieth century. It includes carefully selected details of the work, as well as reproductions from pages of Seurats sketchbooks, which have never before been published. Texts by Jodi Hauptman, Karl Buchberg, Hubert Damisch, Bridget Riley, Richard Shiff and Richard Thomson address specific aspects of Seurats techniques, materials, and subject matter. They are rounded out by a chronology, a selected bibliography and a detailed checklist.

As a big fan of Impressionism, I had to get this book. Seurat’s drawings are beautifully reproduced, though I wish there were a bit more commentary on the pieces. Still, it’s a great addition to my collection.
