Man with pipe (Portrait of dad, Buju)
Maurice de Vlaminck • Painting, 1900, 72×48.5 cm
Description of the artwork «Man with pipe (Portrait of dad, Buju)»
"Man with pipe" the forerunner of Fauvism. The colors Vlaminck has not yet received full freedom, but they're clearly closely the same. The scarlet glare of the scarf is akin to a wild animal that gets loose, and, in fact, will be declared "wild".
The portrait is painted in expressionist manner. Dense, disorderly manner superimposed thick brushstrokes and distorted the image style of Chaim Soutine.
This painting is significant as a stage in the formation of Vlaminck. It reflected his temperament, the opposite Matisse. In fact, Fauvism largely to be created on this contrast, on the tension between the subtle, striving to subordinate the brush and sense of inner discipline and doing it so masterfully Matisse and rough, unbridled Vlaminck.
From made in dark colors, the portrait of a man with a pipe feeling like from the volcano, which still looks just a mountain, but for the external visibility of the hidden lava flows. And when it gets loose, it will not find anyone. The mood of the portrait – a dynamic, tense. The rest generally of little interest Vlaminck – and this is also one of the key differences from Matisse. His strokes seem to be trembling, but it is not vibration, peculiar pointillistically imagethe tremors emanating from the portrait of Vlaminck – nervous, tense. It occurs when a stress notice the trembling of his own hands...
To Vlaminck was fully apparent, will take effect Van Gogh. His paintings, the artist will see only next year, 1901, at a retrospective exhibition of van Gogh in the gallery of Bernheim Jr. And exclaims that she loves van Gogh more than his own father. Wild beast let out of the cell is frantic in his passion Dutch. The difference between the "to van Gogh" and "after van Gogh"obvious.
