Seurat by Hajo Duchting
In a career that lasted little more than a decade Georges Seurat revolutionized technique in painting. He formulated the concept of Divisionism, a method of painting around colour contrasts in which shade and tone are built up through dots of paint (pontillism).
Duchting, Hajo: - Hajo Dü¾˜¶˜¼chting (b. 1949 in Dü¾˜¶˜¼sseldorf) studied art history, philosophy and archaeology in Munich, where he gained his doctorate in 1981 with a thesis on Robert Delaunay's Windows series. After working in museum and adult education, he moved on to teaching posts and guest professorships at the universities of Munich, Kassel, Leipzig, Saarbrü¾˜¶˜¼cken and Mainz. Dü¾˜¶˜¼chting has published numerous articles on the art of the modern era, color theory and the teaching of art, and has authored a number of TASCHEN titles, including Paul Cü¾Ž–”¼zanne, Wassily Kandinsky, Robert and Sonia Delaunay and Georges Seurat.
