Paul Cézanne at Tate Modern

In the first major exhibition to illustrate the spectacular achievement of Paul Cézanne, Tate Modern hosts this large exhibition featuring paintings across his career. His search for a 'harmony parallel to nature' took painting in a more expressive and abstract direction. These mesmerising pictures show the painter building structure and light with colour. His unique way of applying brushstrokes also produces a raw and shimmering effect. Cézanne's paintings continued to be made in the Impressionist style with observation of people, landscapes and still lives while becoming increasingly concerned with liberating the artist from the obligation of copying. Many artists are described as influential but Cézanne is arguably the father of modern painting.

Please add your own constructive comments below. Can you see the influence of Cézanne in other painters? What makes a painting by Cézanne so challenging and seductive?

I have always struggled with Cézanne art and now I finally recognize his art thanks to your presentation and a shift in perception, so I can say that his art took me over now. Thank you!

wonderful walkthrough, thank you very much!

They are strangely beautiful and unnerving paintings, that never seem to lose their capacity to somehow seduce me into refreshing and re-examining the way I see and construct the world.out there - from behind my eyeballs. its as if Im pulled out of my normative frame of reference and then left to wander my way back home via a less familiar path. Everything we experience is a virtual construction after all isn't it? You never ever see the world directly as it is. We live like avatars inside a story that the brian makes for itself from cradle to grave.

This was really interesting. A beautiful painting and analysis. I found myself frustrated with the camerawork. Please film the artwork head on rather than at an angle. The Baltimore Museum of Art films head on then just zooms in slowly to the center detail. The camera is stable -- not wobbly. I would have liked to finish watching this video but the camerawork was in the way. I hope you resolve (or have resolved this in future videos). I've subscribed so please...

Andrea, thanks for your post. We'll try to respond to your request in future.
