| | Amedeo Modigliani - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Modigliani was born in Livorno, Tuscany and began his artistic studies in Italy before moving to Paris in 1906 where he began to create his unique style, influenced by the artists in his circle of friends, primitive art, but standing apart from them stylistically. | | | Although a series of Modigliani's sculptures were exhibited in the Salon d'Automne of 1912, he abruptly abandoned sculpting and focused solely on his painting. | | | Amedeo Clemente Modigliani (July 12, 1884 – January 24, 1920) was a Jewish Italian painter and sculptor. |

| | Amedeo Modigliani - AMAM |
| | Modigliani arrived in Paris in 1906 and was deeply influenced by the work of his contemporaries: Picasso's Blue Period paintings, and especially the late portraits of Cézanne. | | | Modigliani is known to have studied paintings at the Uffizi during his student years in Florence, and to have been deeply impressed by Venetian art. | | | In the majority of Modigliani's compositions, moreover (portraits as well as nudes), contact or exchange with the viewer is blunted by a masklike stylization of the face and blank, inwardly focused eyes; in the Oberlin painting, for example, one eye is shut and the other rendered opaque and pupil-less. |

| | Italian painter, sculptor and draughtsman, Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) actively began painting in Paris in 1906. | | | While in Paris, he was influenced by the Fauves and Cubists, as well as by the sculptor Brancusi, yet Modigliani is most often described as an individualist since his work does not reflect or have any connection with the art movements of his time. | | | He was, however, first and foremost, an artist and was extremely devoted to his art in spite of his obsessions. |

| | Modigliani’s work of this period is highly autobiographical and provides striking evidence of his many contacts with the artistic and literary avant-garde in Paris at that time. | | | Modigliani also is known for his paintings of sensuous reclining nudes, many of which were shown at the Galerie Berthe Weill in Paris in December 1917. | | | Modigliani, influenced by of a wide range of art that encompasses African masks, Cambodian and Egyptian art, medieval sculpture, and the sculpture of Michelangelo as well as Symbolism, Fauvism, and Cubism, took traditional subjects in the history of art—especially the portrait and the nude—and modernized them. |

| | Although Modigliani led the life of the turn-of-the-century bohemian in Paris, dying at the young age of 35, his restless life is scarcely reflected in his paintings. | | | This book is a fabulous introduction to the art of Amedeo Modigliani. | | | Numerous high-quality reproductions accompany this in-depth examination of Modigliani’s career, from the penetrating psychological studies of his early portraits, through the more stylized images such as the graceful figures with the famous almond-shaped eyes and swan-like necks, to his mature depiction of nudes, which have become symbols of femininity. |
