If you can have only one Gauguin book, the Museum of Modern Art's
catalog for its "Gauguin: Metamorphoses" exhibition last spring is
a very strong candidate. It is distinguished by excellent essays by
Starr Figura, who organized the show, as well as by Elizabeth
Childs, Hal foster and Erika Mosier. Moreover, its multimedia
approach places new emphasis on the way motifs migrated among the
artist's woodcuts, transfer drawings, carved wood sculpture,
paintings and ceramics. The result is a much expanded sense of
Gauguin's inventiveness, his working methods and how much he
accomplished during his relatively brief maturity.--Holland Cotter
"The New York Times"
As important as painting obviously was to Gauguin, this exhibit
argues that his efforts in printmaking and drawing were just as
significant.--Halle Howard "Time Out New York"
