{"product_id":"pink-from-botticelli-to-okeeffe","title":"Pink: From Botticelli To O'Keeffe","description":"\u003cp\u003eDiscover how the color pink evolved from a symbol of innocence and frivolity to a powerful vehicle for artistic experimentation, ambiguity, and subversion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong associated with delicacy and sentimentality, pink has also been used to express grandeur, sensuality, irony, and rebellion. This lavishly illustrated volume explores how pink's meaning and function have shifted across cultures and centuries, from Sassetta’s Renaissance saints and Boucher’s idyllic visions to O’Keeffe’s dreamlike floral motifs and Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s intensely colored islands.\u003cbr\u003eReaders will encounter pink as a symbol of divine humility in the religious paintings of El Greco and Pontormo; as a sign of luxury and desire in the flirtatious scenes of Fragonard and the refined elegance of Boucher; and as a radical material in modern and contemporary works by Paul Signac, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Takashi Murakami. The book is structured around forty works of art in which pink appears prominently or significantly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOrganized roughly chronologically, each entry pairs a full-page image with a short, insightful essay revealing how artists used pink—through pigment and representations of clothing, light, and skin—to shape meaning and mood. Throughout the book, timelines, maps, and sidebars provide cultural context and historical depth, including a vivid chart of pink hues with historical and poetic names—from “cuisse de nymphe” and “rose bonbon” to “vieux rose” and “rose vineux”—that reflect the remarkable expressive range of this color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a layered visual structure and filled with unexpected connections, *Pink* invites readers to look anew at an all-too-often overlooked color, and to discover how it has illuminated, disguised, and transformed artworks across centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLanguage: English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"tienda-museothyssen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55615318851960,"sku":"FE22637","price":28.85,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/4221\/6345\/files\/PINKTO.jpg?v=1785152400","url":"https:\/\/tienda.museothyssen.org\/en\/products\/pink-from-botticelli-to-okeeffe","provider":"tienda-museothyssen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
