Traditional Fine Art by Patricia Adolph of Nitram Charcoal, as seen in the Joseph D. Carrier Art Gallery in Toronto in an exhibition featuring traditional fine art by Albert Slark & Students
Degas frequently tempered the oft-idealized sensibilities that permeated Impressionist works – the perfect light, the balanced compositions – with an air of Realism, capturing scenes as they actually occurred. Along with this realness, Degas was fascinated with the concept that a composition could chronicle a moment in time. This snapshot-like quality, which was in part inspired by the then-rising field of photography, is what unites many of Degas’ works.
Continuing our new “Contemporary Charcoals” blog series, up this week is the showcase of the remarkable work of artist Marion Costentin. A native of France who is currently working in Berlin, Germany, Costentin’s emotionally evocative charcoal compositions bear reference both to nature and the self, resulting in striking pieces with universal appeal.
One of the most compelling qualities of the charcoal medium is its ability to conjure a remarkable range of texture and shadow.
One figure who was revolutionary in capitalizing on this versatility was French artist Georges Seurat, one of the most celebrated figures of the late 19th-century Post-Impressionist movement.
