A conversation about Cézanne and the Impressionists, Braque and the imagination, followed by a talk by Professor Danchev on on the life and work of Paul Cézanne.

Professor Alex Danchev’s new biography of Paul Cézanne brings the artist vividly to life, dispelling the many myths that have grown up around him, to put the man, his life and thought, and of course his painting, at the centre of a book brimming with life – from his turbulent friendship with Emile Zola, to Monet’s birthday party at Giverny, to the sunshine of the South of France. Professor Danchev has also written a biography of Georges Braque, and is the editor of the best-selling ‘100 Artists’ Manifestos’.
