THE TIMES\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaul Gauguin is chiefly known as the giant of post-Impressionist painting whose bold colours and compositions rocked the Western art world. It is less well known that he was a stockbroker in Paris and that after the 1882 financial crash he struggled to sustain his artistry, and worked as a tarpaulin salesman in Copenhagen, a canal digger in Panama City, and a journalist exposing the injustices of French colonial rule in Tahiti.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Wild Thing, the award-winning biographer Sue Prideaux re-examines the adventurous and complicated life of the artist. She illuminates the people, places and ideas that shaped his vision: his privileged upbringing in Peru and rebellious youth in France; the galvanising energy of the Paris art scene; meeting Mette, the woman who he would marry; formative encounters with Vincent van Gogh and August Strindberg; and the ceaseless draw of French Polynesia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrideaux conjures Gauguin's visual exuberance, his creative epiphanies, his fierce words and his flaws with acuity and sensitivity. Drawing from a wealth of new material and access to the artist's family, this myth-busting work invites us to see Gauguin anew.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59751279231057,"sku":"0571365949","price":169.0,"currency_code":"PEN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0669\/6455\/3809\/files\/71MrsnQNCKL.jpg?v=1783300356","url":"https:\/\/provetodo.cl\/es-pe\/products\/libro-wild-thing-a-life-of-paul-gauguin","provider":"Provetodo ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
