SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920) developed his career between his Italian training and the artistic world of Paris. Following studies in Florence, he settled in Paris in 1906 and associated with artists in Montmartre. His participation in the Salon des Indépendants in 1908 marked a stage in his entry into the capital’s exhibition life. From 1909 he turned towards sculpture, working directly in stone. Drawing also accompanied his investigation of the human figure. From 1917, nudes and portraits occupied an important place in his practice as his work became more widely known. This movement between drawing, painting and sculpture placed the representation of the body and the face at the centre of his artistic enquiry.
This profile brings together identity references for Amedeo Modigliani and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
