Description:
A consideration of the graphic works of Odilon Redilon in which Eisenman argues that they are the artist's conscious and considered response to changing social realities - an attempt to find refuge from the forces of modernization in an imaginative world of the macabre and the fantastic.
Synopsis:
Bristling with demons, grotesques, and bizarre apparitions, the graphic work of Odilon Redon has often seemed to be the product of a mind unhinged. In The Temptation of Saint Redon, Stephen F. Eisenman argues instead that these works are Redon's conscious and considered response to changing social realities--an attempt to find refuge from the forces of modernization in an imaginative world of the macabre and the fantastic.
