The books - curated by claire artemyz

A curation by claire artemyz, Owner at Galerie Le Cerisier - The theme of the book recurs frequently in Western painting, from the Middle Ages to the present day. A symbol of knowledge, it invites meditation and contemplation in our fast-paced world where many aspects of our lives are becoming dematerialized. In this selection, an accumulation of books occupies almost the entire surface of the canvas in some paintings, while other paintings present a scene that introduces symbolic elements.
