Un regard magnifiquement illustré sur les peintures et les palettes utilisées par les plus grands artistes du monde, du XVIe siècle à nos jours.Qu’est-ce que la palette utilisée ou représentée par un artiste peut nous apprendre sur son processus artistique, ses préférences et ses œuvres finies ? Des planches de bois traditionnelles aux pots de peinture, en passant par les assiettes en céramique et les murs des ateliers, ces outils d’une simplicité trompeuse, mais pourtant puissants, fournissent des preuves essentielles. The Artist’s Palette présente cinquante palettes uniques accompagnées des peintures des artistes célèbres qui les ont utilisées, rassemblant des analyses d’experts sur la couleur, le coup de pinceau et la technique pour offrir de nouvelles histoires de ces artistes et de leurs œuvres.Alexandra Loske associe la palette de couleurs de chaque artiste à une ou plusieurs de leurs peintures, révélant ainsi la manière dont l’artiste a utilisé les peintures et les pigments. Alors que Georges Seurat disposait méticuleusement les peintures sur sa palette dans un ordre prismatique, une technique pointilliste qui se reflète sur ses toiles, Kerry James Marshall utilise des taches de blanc de zinc et des barbouillages de rose pâle sur les surfaces des palettes blanches symboliquement surdimensionnées que tiennent les artistes noirs dans ses portraits, ce qui soulève des questions provocantes sur le rôle de la couleur dans l’histoire des Noirs et dans l’art occidental. À travers ces témoignages et d’autres, Loske montre que, derrière chaque grand tableau, il y a une palette qui raconte son histoire. Avec une multitude de photographies originales de palettes, de peintures et de pigments de toutes sortes, La palette de l’artiste emmène les lecteurs dans les ateliers d’artistes tels qu’Artemisia Gentileschi, Rembrandt, Paul Cézanne, Vincent van Gogh et John Singer Sargent, ou encore Egon Schiele, Georgia O’Keeffe, Helen Frankenthaler, Lucian Freud et Keith Haring, Georgia O’Keeffe, Helen Frankenthaler, Lucian Freud et Keith Haring, révélant comment les matériaux et les outils qu’ils utilisent cachent des secrets et sont souvent le reflet de la vie et de l’époque de l’artiste qui les a tenus, préparés et utilisés.

Alysia Vasey's earliest memories are of walking alongside her grandfather as they explored the West Yorkshire moors that they called home. As an adult, this love for wild things stayed with her, even as she learnt that her family's knowledge of edible plants were a legacy of a much darker time during the Second World War. After leaving Yorkshire in search of adventure, Alysia was eventually guided home by her motto: Be true to yourself and you will become the person you were meant to be. She left her traditional path and took a far wilder journey that gradually evolved into one of the UK's most successful foraging businesses, supplying some of the greatest chefs in the world and the best restaurants in the country Her achievements are the result of a bit of luck, a lot of knowledge and a huge amount of self-belief. Here, Alysia also shares not only her story, but also her vast knowledge of UK plant lore. A true Yorkshirewoman, Alysia tells it like it is, and The Yorkshire Forager is full of tales of her family's adventures and misadventures in their search for top quality ingredients - you never know who you might meet in the woods - making this book as entertaining as it is informative.
