Where else can you encounter Chopin and
Berlioz in the Salons of Paris or examine paintings by
Titian and Tintoretto on the
advice of the Rubens, but in Pascale Bonafoux's Art
In Europe: From the Vandals to the Avant-Garde.
For the first time an art guide establishes the link between artists
in European culture. You will understand the hidden meaning of
popular subjects such as "Saint George and the Dragon"
as well as the beginning of new movements such as Art Nouveau
or Cubism. A list of the 300 most important museums will give
you direct access to the artworks and help plan trips to Europe
that are immersed in culture.
Pascal Bonafux has curated several
exhibitions of contemporary art. As a journalist, he contributes
to various newspapers and reviews and he also teaches art history
at Paris VIII University.
