The Other Side/L'autre rive

Gérard Garouste is one of the major figures of French painting. This monograph presents the artist's journey through the great mythological sources he has drawn from in order to build his oeuvre. Whether literary, biblical or personal, these myths are the framework of his painting and have fed, for over forty years, his guest for meaning, as well as his philosophical and poetic investigations. This book was published on the occasion of the exhibition Gérard Garouste — The Other Side presented at the National Gallery of Modem Art, New Delhi.
