"What lies behind nature? Nothing perhaps. Perhaps everything. Everything, you understand. So I close this errant hand. I take the tones of colour I see to my right and my left, here, there, everywhere, and I fix these gradiations, I bring them together... They form lines, and become objects, rocks, trees, without my thinking about it. They aquire volume, they have an effect. When these masses and weights on my canvas correspond to the planes, and the spots which I see in my mind and which we see in our eyes, my canvas closes its fingers. It does not waver. It does not reach too high of too low. It is true, it is dense, it is full... But if I have the slightest distraction or feel the slightest weakness, particularly if I start readingntoo much into things, if I am swept along by a theory today which contradicts yesterday's, if I think when I'm painting, if I interfere, then bang, everything slips away." Paul Cezanne (quoted from Cezanne - Taschen)

Interesting, but it's very unlikely that Cézanne used any 'inventive optical devices'. And I'm surprised he didn't mention the idea of multiple perspectives which was so important to Cézanne. Traditional one-point perspective can only approximate our natural perception of a subject (still life, landscape, human figure) if we keep our head or eyes completely immobile. As soon as we look in even a slightly different direction, the vanishing point will change. Also, I'm not sure Cézanne's flattening of the picture plane had anything to do with stereoscopic vision. Apart from 'pulling' far objects towards us, which most of us do, he simply felt that more distant objects in the studio or in a landscape were just as important as those in the foreground, and therefore should be treated with just as much respect.

Enjoyed the video. And I enjoy the paintings of Cezanne. I must say that as a professional landscape painter, I am quite curious where this theory about Cezanne's perspective comes from. I don't see in the paintings that he "realized that single point perspective was wrong." He may have been well aware of the stereo vision idea. I wonder if there is evidence in Cezanne's writing that he was exploring this concept in his paintings? Or is it just one person's interpretation of Cezanne's slightly-askew perspective? Just offering my point of view, that I don't see Cezanne's approach to paintings as being about stereo vision. Happy to hear more about where this idea came from.

I learned about pseudoscopy when I was training to be an air surveyor. Two overlapping air photographs will give a 3d image of the ground. You can see the building's and trees standing up, and plot contours around the hills. If you then swap the photos around, the landscape reverses. The trees and buildings look like holes in the ground. I don't think the impressionists achieve greater realism than the masters from earlier ages. Sorry, just don't get it.

Ach jij moet eens weten Waldemar, ja links zie ik tv 📺 vol met lelijke beelden, vol geweld, verwoesting , rechts zie ik mijn tulpenboom zo geweldige boom zo vol met bloemen en als je ze aanraakt ,voelen deze aan alsof ze van fluweel zijn gemaakt ,roze en wit en als toegift bloeien ze zelfs twee keer en de familie van deze is de Sterlata ,bloeit met witte sterren bloemen ,die twee zijn altijd in contramine wie als eerste bloeit ,nou dat is altijd de Sterlata ,maar de tulpenboom doet eigenwijs en gaat mee in kleurenpalet ,de verrassingspakket is een treurgeval laat haar takken hangen vol met rode knoppen en krijgt later fluweel zachte vruchten 🍈 is het een perzik of een amandel boom, nog steeds na jaren blijft het een mysterieuze, ondanks al deze bloemenpracht stemt het mij verdrietig omdat ik mij afvraag ,zal ik ze volgende jaar ze nog zien bloeien of gaan ze eruitzien als de bomen in Ukraine verbrand , gebroken ,of gespleten door de gespletenheid van de mens ,Ja ik weet geniet van het nu en hier, besef hoeveel mensen zelf ze niet eens in hun tuin hebben staan deze rijkdom deze pracht , zo ook jij zie ik op mijn scherm, steeds zie ik weer iets nieuws, je loopt langs prachtige palmlelies vol in bloei met een gek geel kastje je werkt op mijn lachspieren tevens 😢 ( zo vreemd waarom deze bloeiwijze zoveel emoties teweegbrengt ,Ik zal maar niets zeggen wat de symboliek betekend van één tulpenboom 😅 blijf gezond maniëristisch programma’s makend , fijne Paasdagen jij en jouw medewerkers, en nee PASEN is PASEN zijn Jesus dagen ,toen en nu zijn emotionele dagen ,te beseffen hoe kwetsbaar alles kan zijn , waarom kiezen mensen dan toch steeds het lelijke kant van hun bestaan ? 👀 🫂

Waldemar Januszczak is a master of artistic gobbledy-gook. Cezanne never used any such devices, and he simply drew and painted in his own unique way. He didn't rely on scientific theories. He simply abandoned traditional academic aerial and linear perspective, and made the flat surface of the canvas stand alone by itself. He showed that you could create fantastic modern masterworks that stand equally with the Old Masters. He opened a door to a new way of expression that no one had ever seen before. That's why he's called the father of modern art. Every painter from Picasso right up to modern abstract expressionism has followed in his footsteps.

You are making things difficult based on your concepts. Cezanne is not essentially conceptual. What he did do with perspective is basically his use of color perspective. He understood that color and form are one. he also understood he was painting, not simply making pictures. So each brushstroke and tonality contributed to the overall composition. No space on the canvas any more important than any other. It is absolutely music and is meant to be received with the eyes just as you hear music with your eyes. So, obviously receptivity is important. If you superimpose your concepts and ideas on the work you will miss the point. His work is ALWAYS a balance of brush, color, motif and artistic personality. As my Master in the Art would constantly say when I asked him about a painting we were contemplating, "Look at the brushstrokes." Kind of cuts to the chase...too simple?

Waldemar's documentary on Gauguin is the best art vid I have ever seen. Every Cezanne doc tries hard to justify his place in art by one bizarre means or another but this is the bizarrest of the lot. Theories abound about this allegedly great artist - many of which sound fascinating... but then when you look at his paintings you wonder why they are so bad. The more I look at them the more ugly, crude and messy they seem. His nudes are laughable and the rest of his stuff not much better.

It is true that his early paintings are outrageously bad - but somehow endearing - but only endearing because you see what he becomes. I don’t know who Waldemar is, but I like his observation about binocular vision. I don’t think much of Waldemar’s notion that Cézanne used visual gadgets - mirrors and lenses, etc. - I very much doubt that. But what Cézanne did do was to combine in paint the information coming from his eyes with the information coming from his mind - his mind’s eye - so that the paintings have a visual structure. He created a previously unseen kind of beauty.

The whole business about the pseudoscope was worthless. No credible point was made. By the way ...the town of Aix is pronounced simply..X. Like the letter. The speaker asserts that Cézanne most likely did not use a pseudo scope. Yet the description above says, the narrator “explains the inventive optical devices Cézanne used to create is unique way of painting objects and landscapes.” Both can’t be right. Pick one!

It was a very pertinent point. The term 'Device' in aesthetics does not relate to a physical object or tool. Rather, it refers to technique. Also, it is clear when looking at Cezanne's landscapes that he is rendering depth in a very different manner to artists before him. As with the effects of the pseudoscope, depth is challenged and distorted, often appearing flat as the objects far away appear on the same level as the objects in the foreground.

"This is what one must achieve. If I reach too high or too low, everything is a mess. There must not be a single loosw strand, a single gap through which the tension, the light, the truth can escape. I have all the parts of my canvas under control simultaneously. If things tend to diverge, I use my instincts and beliefs to bring them back together again.. Everything that we see disperses, fades away. Nature is always the same, even though its visible manifestations eventually cease to exist. Our art must shock nature into permanence, together with all the components and manifestations of change. Art must make nature eternal in our imagination. What lies behind nature? Nothing perhaps. Perhaps everything. Everything, you understand. So I close this errant hand. I take the tones of colour I see to my right and my left, here, there, everywhere, and I fix these gradiations, I bring them together...
