●内容简介——

一位国际艺术界的内行人对现代艺术中一些活跃的创意人物进行了引人入胜的接触、个人轶事和不带术语的批评性见解。

迈克尔·佩皮亚特被《艺术报》誉为 “他这一代人中好的艺术作家”，50 多年来他接触了许多欧洲现代艺术家。这本精选了他的传记作品，涵盖了现代艺术的各个领域，从梵高和皮埃尔·博纳尔，到与画家索尼娅-德劳内、艺术家朵拉·玛尔（她是毕加索在 20 世纪 30 和 40 年代的情人）以及弗朗西斯·培根的个人对话，培皮亚特也许是与之建立了个人友谊的众多艺术家中的一位。

迈克尔·佩皮亚特的文字生动活泼、引人入胜，带领我们走进许多艺术界名人的生活，例如他在工作室拜访的加泰罗尼亚画家安东尼·塔皮埃斯，以及他与自我神话化的艺术家巴尔图斯的会面等幻灭时刻。艺术评论与趣闻轶事融为一体：与卢西安·弗洛伊德一起乘坐他的宾利车，与培根在苏荷区喝酒，与大卫·霍克尼讨论毕加索的裤子......

这本收录了佩皮亚特具有洞察力的文章，其中包括一些未被广泛认可的艺术家，如达豪的幸存者佐兰·音乐（Zoran Music）或黑山艺术家达多（Dado），佩皮亚特在 2009 年威尼斯双年展上策划了他的回顾展。这些精选的文章不仅为我们提供了敏锐的评论和尖锐的批评，还让我们对当代一些伟大的创意人物有了独特的个人见解。

Engaging encounters, personal anecdotes and jargon-free critical insights into some of the liveliest creative minds in modern art, by an international art world insider.

Praised by the Art Newspaper as ‘the best art writer of his generation’, Michael Peppiatt has encountered many European modern artists over more than fifty years. This selection of some of his best biographical writing covers a wide spectrum of modern art, from Van Gogh and Pierre Bonnard, to personal conversations with painter Sonia Delaunay, artist Dora Maar, who was Picasso’s lover in the 1930s and 1940s, and Francis Bacon, perhaps the most famous of the many artists with whom Peppiatt has formed personal friendships.

Michael Peppiatt’s lively, engaging writing takes us into the company of many notable art-world personalities, such as the Catalan painter Antoni Tàpies, whom he visits in his studio, and moments of disillusion, such as his meeting with the self-mythologizing artist Balthus. Art criticism blends with anecdote: riding with Lucian Freud in his Bentley, drinking with Bacon in Soho, discussing Picasso’s trousers with David Hockney...

This collection of Peppiatt’s most perceptive texts includes under-recognized artists, such as Dachau survivor Zoran Music, or Montenegrin artist Dado, whose retrospective Peppiatt curated at the 2009 Venice Biennale. Remarkably varied in their scope and lucidly written for a general reader, these selected essays not only provide us with perceptive commentary and acute critical judgment, they also give a unique personal insight into some of the greatest creative minds of the modern era.
