SUE PRIDEAUX: PAUL GAUGIN BIOGRAPHY
WILD THING: A LIFE OF PAUL GAUGIN (2024)
Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin (1848 – 1903) was a French painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, and writer, whose work has been primarily associated with the Post-Impressionist and Symbolist movements. He was also an influential practitioner of wood engraving and woodcuts as art forms. While only moderately successful during his lifetime, Gauguin has since become famous for his experimental use of color and Synthetist style that were distinct from Impressionism.
