Odilon Redon was born in Bordeaux, France on April 20th, 1840 and died July 6, 1916. From early on, Odilon was able to have a hand in numerous mediums of art from architecture to sculping he got to experience a wide variety but still found himself using charcoal or paint in most of his works. I chose to research this artist because his work fascinates me, I both like and dislike it at the same time. I admire him because of his innovative work is, he served as a precursor for the surrealism movement, and a lot of his work is nightmarish and unsettling. Throughout his work, the theme of eyes (seen in image 2,4 and 5) makes several appearances, even in his self-portrait one eye is visible, perhaps his later work “The Cyclops” is a nod to both him and his self-portrait. I love the range of styles in his work, and that even though they shift throughout his various works, his overarching themes stay the same showing how peculiar imagery is incredibly powerful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
