These joyful scenes, often set outdoors, accompanied and influenced the life and work of his son, filmmaker Jean Renoir (1894‒1979), who Orson Welles described as \"the greatest of all directors.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis catalogue--along with the traveling exhibition it accompanies--demonstrates the rich and fascinating dialogue between father and son, and retraces chapters of Jean's production through the lens of his father's work. And while Pierre-Auguste Renoir's artistic practice and creative universe influenced Jean's art, Jean's films shed new light on his father's paintings. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFocusing on core themes in both artists' works, such as their vision and recreation of Paris, this volume examines Jean's path to becoming a prominent international filmmaker, bringing together paintings, drawings, films, costumes, and photos--as well as the ceramics he made before he turned to cinema. Contributions from the Barnes Foundation--with its collection of 181 works by Pierre-Auguste Renoir along with pottery by Jean Renoir--the Mus馥 d'Orsay, and the Cin駑ath鑷ue Fran軋ise provide in-depth insight into this complex, fruitful relationship between painting and cinema. The exhibition opens at the Barnes from May 6‒September 3, 2018 and travels to the Mus馥 d'Orsay in Paris from November 5, 2018‒January 27, 2019.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sylvie Patry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 2080266004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9782080266002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Flammarion-Pere Castor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 7.90w x 1.30d","brand":"Sylvie Patry","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43990589178111,"sku":"9782080266002","price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_21d9ffe8-abc6-4d5e-a845-2c77fc0436f6.jpg?v=1683305538","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/renoir-sylvie-patry-9782080266002","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
