This is especially true at a time when the #MeToo movement is shedding new light on Gauguin's relationships with adolescent girls and his role in colonialism in French Polynesia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGauguin - The Master, the Monster and the Myth\u003c\/i\u003e is the first in-depth biography about the artist written by a Danish writer. The publication shares new insights about Gauguin—his complex character as both an artist and a human being. It challenges the traditional ideas we have about his life and work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFlemming Friborg unfolds the fascinating story of Gauguin's life and the milieu of Impressionism that he was part of, while also distinguishing himself from it. The book illustrates how his methods and morals were bound in a carefully maintained personal brand, leading to the conclusion that the master and the monster are inseparable. As a result of this, Gauguin's legacy and status as a genius artist remain unclear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47362592571628,"sku":"9788792596307","price":110.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/4a2b3af0afa211c2870077cb7f79b7ee.jpg?v=1772935266","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/gauguin-by-flemming-friborg-9788792596307","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
