Balthus (1908-2001) was a French artist of Polish origin, who grew up in a bohemian Parisian family. The first book of his drawings came out in 1921, with a foreword by Rainer Maria Rilke. In his figurative painting, often of erotic subjects, Balthus largely continued the classical tradition. However, a certain influence exerted on him by contemporaries, especially the Surrealists, distinguishes his work. In the 1940s and 50s Balthus designed productions by Antonin Artaud and other avant-garde filmmakers. He was famous not only for his art, but also for the aura of mystery that he created around himself.
Having received his artistic education at the Tokyo School of Fine Arts, Tsuguharu Fujita (1886-1968) moved to Paris in 1913, where he entered the circle of Picasso, Modigliani, Matisse, and others. Later he would go to Latin America and then return to Japan. In the 1950s he was awarded French citizenship and he converted to Catholicism. Women, cats and the naked body are the main motifs of his paintings and graphic works, which combine traditional Japanese techniques with the characteristics of European modernism. Fujita was also famous for his extravagant appearance.

Спасибо за лекцию! Только прочитала прекрасный роман Ребекки Маккай «Мы умели верить», где упоминаются эти два художника, а также Жюль Паскин. Так что слушаю лекцию с двойным интересом.
