PLAT DE TROIS FRUITS by Bob Kessel

On C’EST CEZANNE art series by Bob Kessel:

“I think it is a very impressive and beautiful series.
I was having ‘flashbacks’ to Meyer Schapiro’s text on Cezanne, but you have transformed the formal issues, which he considered and you have observed and assimilated, into entirely new works of art.”

Paul Cezanne (1839 - 1906) was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th century conception of artistic endeavour to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century. Cezanne can be said to form the bridge between late 19th century Impressionism and the early 20th century’s new line of artistic enquiry, Cubism. The line attributed to both Matisse and Picasso that Cezanne “is the father of us all” cannot be easily dismissed.

BAIGNEUSES DE CEZANNE by Bob Kessel

Bob Kessel has created a new art series titled, “BATHERS” based on the works of Paul Cezanne. The pictures are available as limited edition fine art prints, signed and numbered by the artist. Contact Bob Kessel for prices and availability.

Bathers appear in the work of Cezanne in a series from about 1875. Until the end of his days, the painter did not cease reconsidering the topic. The characters multiply, new sources of inspiration are integrated, the composition becomes more and more complex. in all, Cezanne carried out seventy-four scenes of bathers in oil, watercolors or drawings.
