"More than any other artist in the Impressionist group, Degas was fascinated by ideas and consciously based his work on them. "What I do is the result of reflection and study of the great masters," he once confessed, "of inspiration, spontaneity, temperament I know nothing." Yet his work has been understood very inadequately from that point of view. Publications on him, once dominated by memoirs inspired by his remarkable personality, are now concerned with cataloguing and studying limited aspects of his complex art. Its intellectual power and originality, which were evident to contemporary writers like Duranty and Valery, have not been studied sufficiently by more recent critics. It is this side of Degas's art--as seen in his ingenious pictorial strategies and technical innovations, his use of motifs like the window, the mirror, and the picture within the picture, his invention of striking, psychologically compelling compositions, and his creation of a sculptural idiom at once formal and vernacular--that is the subject of these essays. Inevitably, given the range of his intellectual interests, the essays are also concerned with his contacts with leading novelists and poets of his time and his efforts to illustrate or draw inspiration from their works. Throughout, the author makes use of an important, largely unpublished source, the material in Degas's notebooks, on which he has recently published a complete catalogue"--Publisher's description.

This excellently illustrated book examines the mastery of the pastel technique that was such an outstanding feature of Degas' art. Although Degas was not unique in using pastel, it eventually became a method that he explored as few have done. Jockeys in the rain is a splendid example of the use of the medium. The eldest of five children, Degas came from a privileged Parisian family and received a strict, classical education. He acquired an early taste for art, and although he went to law school he spent his time drawing, visiting the studios of artists and viewing private collections owned by friends of his father. He entered the studios of Barrias and Lamothe, and studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts before travelling widely in Italy. Throughout his life he was caught midway between the Paris Salon and the impressionists. He was always aware of the problems of light and tone and took advice from Ingres, for whom he had the highest admiration. Degas was a master portrayer of everyday reality but one of his greatest qualities was his draughtsmanship in the classical tradition, being comparable to that of Ingres himself. This is a fascinating and authoritative exploration of the work of a great artist.--Book jacket.

"In Degas' work there are a number of fundamental elements which exist across oeuvre and motif, technique and chronology. It is with these elements that Degas' Method is concerned: that which catches one's attention if the customary pigeonholing of the works is abandoned and the works themselves are returned to the creative ferment from which they emerged, where they exist side by side -- and from whence Degas, in a manner entirely his own, has taken and combined them. Degas' Method mixes painting, pastel, monotype, sculpture, drawing and several graphic disciplines in the desire to bring together the artist's production, ranging across motif, technique and chronology." --Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek website.

A towering figure in 19th-century art, Degas is best known as a painter and chronicler of the ballet. In the 1870s, during an era of enthusiasm for experimental printmaking, Degas was introduced to the monotype process - drawing in black ink on a metal plate that was then run through a press, typically resulting in a single print. Captivated by the medium's potential, Degas made more than 300 monotypes during two discrete bursts of activity, from the mid-1870s to the mid-1880s, and again during the early 1890s. Taking the medium to new and radical heights, the artist abandoned the academic drawing style of his youth, inventing a new repertoire of mark-making that included wiping, scratching, abrading, finger printing and rendering via removal. Frequently, he used monotypes as a starting point from which an image could be reworked, revised, and re-crafted, often with pastel. Degas explored a variety of subject matter in these works, including scenes of modern life; harshly illuminated café singers; ballet dancers onstage, backstage, or in rehearsal; the life of the brothel; intimate moments at the bath; and landscapes. Degas's engagement with monotype had broad consequences for his work in other mediums; repetition and transformation, mirroring and reversal - all essential to Degas's work in monotype - was an ongoing logic of his work in drawing, painting, and pastel. Published to accompany an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, this richly illustrated catalogue presents approximately 180 monotypes along with some 50 related works, including paintings, drawings, pastels, sketchbooks and prints. Essays and case studies by curators, scholars and conservators explore the creative potency of Degas's rarely seen monotypes, and highlight their impact on his wider practice.
