#6584 Leymarie, Jean. Zao Wou-Ki. New York: Rizzoli, 1979.
Cloth, 330 pp. Condition: fine in fine dust jacket.
Zao Wou-ki, born in Peking to a family of
intellectuals, was unusual in that he was far
more influenced by Cezanne, Renoir and
Matisse rather than traditional Chinese art. He
settled in Paris in 1948, where his work acted
as a "thunderbolt" for French culture. First
painting in the manner of Picasso and
Cezanne, his art soon developed in the
direction of an astonishing and subtle
abstraction, nourished by Eastern painting but
also displaying a great spontaneity and
personal mysticism. This important
monograph is lavishly illustrated with 510
plates, 203 of them in color.

"This book examines the impact of papal
nepotism on the visual arts of 17th century
Rome through an examination of the painted
vaults of Palazzo Barberini, the family palace
of the foremost patron of the High Baroque,
Pope Urban VIII. The study focuses in the
intersection of art and power in the ceiling
paintings commissioned in the 1620s and
1630s. Viewed against the backdrop of the
changing social codes and power relationships
that characterized the ferment of Rome in this
period, Palazzo Barberini stands as a
remarkable document asserting the divine
sanction of that family's emergence."
