A New Book on Cezanne


I wanted to pass along a link to a radio talk show on National Public Radio (NPR) today.

It's an interesting interview by Diane Rehm on her talk show of the same name with Alex Danchev, a professor and author of the new book, Cezanne.

In the interview Danchev discusses much of Paul Cezanne's background and life as an artist starting out in Aix-en-Provence as well as some interesting thoughts on why Cezanne produced so many self-portraits among other topics.

 If you are a fan of Cezanne (or Diane Rehm) or if you just like art history, I think you will like this discussion.

There are also some images of Cezannes' paintings throughout his career and an excerpt from the book as well.

Here's the link:
