Book Description
The best-known and most sensational event in Vincent van Gogh’s life is also the least understood. For more than a century, biographers and historians seeking definitive facts about what happened on a December night in Arles have unearthed more questions than answers. Why would an artist at the height of his powers commit such a brutal act? Who was the mysterious “Rachel” to whom he presented his macabre gift? Did he use a razor or a knife? Was it just a segment—or did Van Gogh really lop off his entire ear? In Van Gogh’s Ear, Bernadette Murphy reveals, for the first time, the true story of this long-misunderstood incident, sweeping away decades of myth and giving us a glimpse of a troubled but brilliant artist at his breaking point. Murphy’s detective work takes her from Europe to the United States and back, from the holdings of major museums to the moldering contents of forgotten archives. She braids together her own thrilling journey of discovery with a narrative of Van Gogh’s life in Arles, the sleepy Provençal town where he created his finest work, and vividly reconstructs the world in which he moved—the madams and prostitutes, café patrons and police inspectors, shepherds and bohemian artists. We encounter Van Gogh’s brother and benefactor Theo, his guest and fellow painter Paul Gauguin, and many local subjects of Van Gogh’s paintings, some of whom Murphy identifies for the first time. Strikingly, Murphy uncovers previously unknown information about “Rachel”—and uses it to propose a bold new hypothesis about what was occurring in Van Gogh’s heart and mind as he made a mysterious delivery to her doorstep. As it reopens one of art history’s most famous cold cases, Van Gogh’s Ear becomes a fascinating work of detection. It is also a study of a painter creating his most iconic and revolutionary work, pushing himself ever closer to greatness even as he edged toward madness—and one fateful sweep of the blade that would resonate through the ages.

Book Description
WORKBOOK WITH CD ENCLOSED. FULL COLOR. MUSIC AND ART EDUCATION. Gauguin felt that his approach to color the pinks beside purple or yellows near orange had nothing to do with Naturalism or Impressionism, but everything to do with music. He thought like a composer, and he knew it. When critics complained that Gauguins paintings lacked perspective, seemed flat, and that his colors were unnatural, the artist turned to music to defend himself. The journalist Eugène Tardieu asked Gauguin why he painted red dogs and pink skies, and Gauguin replied, "I do it purposefully! Its like music. I take an idea from life and arrange lines and colors to get symphonies and harmonies. I do not paint mere representations of reality. My paintings should make you think the way music does simply through the mysterious affinities, the connections, that exist between our minds and arrangements of colors and lines." Gauguin felt that if people would only allow artists the same freedom from realism that musicians naturally enjoy, they would understand his work. He wrote in his journal, "Musicians live in a special world of sounds and harmonies. Painting should be special, too. The sister art to music, painting lives on forms and colors. Color, like music, is vibration." Together, the music and book of Red Dogs and Pink Skies celebrate not only Gauguins paintings and ideas about art and music, but also the relationship of painting to music generally. The design of the book from the decorative borders and backgrounds to the humorous images are based on details and elements of Gauguins own work. The music was inspired by "listening" to the paintings. For Gauguin himself said, "Color is the language of the listening eye."
