Publisher's Synopsis
Krampf's exclusive collection of Goerges Braque's post-Cubist paintings reveals both Braque's pioneering individuality and craftsmanship in the history of Modern Art. Or as the artist once said himself, 'I do not do as I want, I do as I can. Progress in art does not consist in expanding one's limitations, but in knowing them better.'
Focusing on the artist's transformative period between 1920 and 1960, which arguably produced his best work, this illustrative book explores Braque's most overlooked post-Cubism art-where he transcends both his own limitations and that of his surroundings, showing readers and collectors alike the timeless and enduring impact of Braque's work.
