Feaver William Lucian Freud
This volume, with more than 400 reproductions, will be the most comprehensive publication to date on Lucian Freud, covering a span of seventy years and including many works not previously reproduced. The result is a corpus of great works that reveal him to be the premier heir today of Rembrandt, Courbet, and Cezanne. The book includes not only Freud's paintings but also his sketches, woodcuts, and powerful etchings. While the bulk of his paintings are female nudes, his cityscapes, plant studies, and interiors, executed in his distinctive muted palette and visible brushwork, are all included. Freud, who has lived in London ever since his family left Berlin in 1933 when he was ten, has achieved preeminence through his ruthless perception of the human form. His importance has long been recognized in England, but his present super-celebrity status dates from a retrospective at the Hirshhorn in Washington, D.C., in 1987. William Feaver, painter and for many years art critic for The Observer, provides a unique account of Freud's preoccupations and achievement. Startling, moving, profoundly entertaining, the book lives up to Freud's advice to students when getting them to paint self-portraits: "To try and make it the most revealing, telling, and believable object. Something really shameless, you know."

Lucian Freud. Portraits
One of the foremost figurative artists working today, Lucian Freud has redefined portraiture and the nude through his unblinking scrutiny of the human form. And while most are familiar with Freud’s thickly impasted paintings, few realize how integral etching has become to his practice. Presenting an exceptional overview of Freud’s works on paper over his more than six-decade career, this oversized volume highlights the artist’s unconventional approach to the medium. Standing the copper etching plate upright on the easel, Freud treats the plate like a canvas as he depicts his sitters—very often friends, family members, or fellow artists—through meticulous networks of finely etched lines. Among Freud’s most notable trademarks is his tendency to dramatically crop figures and then isolate them against empty backgrounds, achieving through this juxtaposition a startling sense of psychological tension and formal abstraction. Freud is one of the most widely acclaimed British artists of our time and, with plentiful illustrations and an introduction by celebrated curator Norman Rosenthal, Lucian Freud: Portraits brings Freud’s lesser-known etchings deservedly to the forefront.

Smee Sebastian Lucian Freud
Lucian Freud (1922-2011) was interested in the telling of truths. Always operating outside the main currents of 20th-century art, the esteemed portrait painter observed his subjects with the regimen and precision of a laboratory scientist. He recorded not only the blotches, bruises, and swellings of the living body, but also, beneath the flaws and folds of flesh, the microscopic details of what lies within: the sensation, the emotion, the intelligence, the bloom, and the inevitable, unstoppable decay. Despite rejecting parallels between him and his renowned grandfather, the correlation between Lucian Freud's sitting process for portraiture and Sigmund Freud's psychotherapy sessions is a fascinating element to this figurative oeuvre. Despite the thickness of the impasto surfaces, Freud's portraits of subjects as varied as the Queen, Kate Moss, and an obese job center supervisor penetrate the physicality of the body with a direct and often disarming insight. The result is as much a psychological interrogation as it is an uneasy examination of the relationship between artist and model. This book brings together some of Freud's most outstanding and unapologetic portraits, to introduce an artist widely considered one of the finest masters of the human form.

Smee Sebastian Lucian Freud. 1922-2011. Beholding the Animal
British artist Lucian Freud is widely considered the most important figurative painter working today. Master portraitist and specialist in nudes, Freud uses impasto to create depth and intensity while restraining his color palate to mostly muted hues. His portraits may be physically unflattering to their subjects, but they are honest, frank, and unapologetic. I paint people, Freud has said, not because of what they are like, not exactly in spite of what they are like, but how they happen to be.

Paul Celia Self-Portrait

Feaver Jane Crazy
'I will break him; he will break me, and when we are broken, we will be even, and then we can be put back together again' Jane has been accustomed to clever, undemonstrative men. So when, as a young woman, she meets Ardu, she is instantly bewitched by his intellect and detachment. What starts as a crush turns into something far darker, an all-consuming obsession, from which, years later, she is still reeling. Crazy is a work of autofiction, a startling story of obsessive love, addiction, motherhood and work. It is a reckoning with fiction and with truth: how these things play out on the body; what it takes for a woman to write out her own life.

Lucian Freud's Sketchbooks
Lucian Freud was one of the world's greatest realist artists. Working only from life, he once claimed, 'I could never put anything into a picture that wasn't there in front of me.' This revelatory publication features a selection of beautifully reproduced images from his sketchbooks. Most of the sketches - which include works in pencil, pastel and watercolour from across the artist's long career - are published here for the first time. These fascinating images extend our understanding of Freud's work and demonstrate the scrutiny he brought to his subjects. The sketchbooks, now in the archive of the National Portrait Gallery, London, include portraits of Freud's family members, friends and lovers. Designs for book covers, images of his beloved dogs and horses, landscapes and interiors appear among nudes, still lifes and several sketches that relate to major works. Around and between the drawings are Freud's annotations and jottings - appointments, racing tips, notes, musings - which, with startling immediacy, provide a glimpse into the working life of one of the twentieth century's most important artists. The book includes an insightful essay by Martin Gayford, who sat for portraits by Freud and knew him well, and an illustrated chronology of the artist's life.

Smee Sebastian. Freud
Люсьен Фрейд (1922–2011) интересовался правдой. Всегда работая вне основных течений искусства 20-го века, уважаемый художник-портретист наблюдал за своими предметами с режимом и точностью ученого-лаборанта. Он зафиксировал не только пятна, кровоподтеки и припухлости живого тела, но и под изъянами и складками плоти микроскопические детали того, что находится внутри: ощущение, эмоцию, интеллект, цветение и неизбежное, неудержимое разложение. Несмотря на отрицание параллелей между ним и его знаменитым дедом, корреляция между процессом сидения Люсьена Фрейда для портретной живописи и психотерапевтическими сеансами Зигмунда Фрейда является захватывающим элементом этого фигуративного творчества. Несмотря на толщину пастозных поверхностей, фрейдовские портреты таких разных персонажей, как королева, Кейт Мосс и тучный руководитель центра занятости, проникают в телесность с прямым и часто обезоруживающим пониманием. В результате получается как психологический опрос, так и непростое исследование отношений между художником и моделью. В этой книге собраны некоторые из самых выдающихся и непримиримых портретов Фрейда, чтобы представить художника, которого многие считают одним из лучших мастеров человеческой формы.Lucian Freud (1922–2011) was interested in the telling of truth.
