An original and revealing portrait of the misunderstood French Post-Impressionist artist.
Paul Gauguin’s legend as a transgressive genius arises as much from his biography as his aesthetically daring Polynesian paintings. Gauguin is chiefly known for his pictures that eschewed convention, to celebrate the beauty of an indigenous people and their culture. In this gorgeously illustrated, myth-busting work, Sue Prideaux reveals that while Gauguin was a complicated man, his scandalous reputation is largely undeserved.
Self-taught, Gauguin became a towering artist in his brief life, not just in painting but in ceramics and graphics. He fled the bustle of Paris for the beauty of Tahiti, where he lived simply and worked consistently to expose the tragic results of French Colonialism. Gauguin fought for the rights of Indigenous people, exposing French injustices and corruption in the local newspaper and acting as advocate for the Tahitian people in the French colonial courts. His unconventional career and bold, breathtaking art influenced not only Vincent van Gogh, but Matisse and Picasso.
Wild Thing upends much of what we thought we knew about Gauguin through new primary research, including the resurfaced manuscript of Gauguin’s most important writing, the untranslated memoir of Gauguin’s son, and a sample of Gauguin’s teeth that disproves the pernicious myth of his syphilis. In the first full biography of Paul Gauguin in thirty years, Sue Prideaux illuminates the extraordinary oeuvre of a visionary artist vital to the French avant-garde. The result is “a brilliantly readable and compassionate study of Gauguin—not just as a painter, sculptor, carver and potter, but as a human soul perpetually searching for what is always just out of reach” (Artemis Cooper, Spectator).

Memmon yhteenvedot ovat kultaa ennen kokeita. Minun ei tarvitse lukea 800 sivua uudelleen kaksi viikkoa ennen – vain tärkeimmät osat.
AI-chat on pelastanut minut useammin kuin kerran tenttiä edeltävänä iltana. Kysyn vain, kunnes ymmärrän – ilman, että tarvitsee odottaa opiskeluryhmän vastausta.
Visat osuvat juuri siihen, mitä minun tarvitsee tietää. Memmo seuraa, mihin jään jumiin – joten harjoittelen vain sitä, mikä on sen arvoista.
Muistikortit toistuvalla harjoittelulla ovat taikaa. Memmo tietää, milloin olen unohtamassa jotain, ja tuo sen takaisin.
AI-podcastit ovat suosikkini. Kuuntelen niitä matkalla kouluun ja saan kertauksen ilman, että tarvitsee istua tietokoneen ääressä.
