ok...the real genius of the week
Amedeo Modigliani
1884-1920
Amedeo Modigliani was the bohemian artist par excellence - his posthumous legend is almost as famous as Van Gough's. In stylistic terms he was an oddity: contemporary with the Cubists, but not part of their movement, he forms a bridge between the generation of Toulouse-Lautrec and the Art Deco painters of the 1920s.
