«Escritos de un salvaje» is a collection of writings by the painter Paul Gauguin, published by Barral Editores in paperback and in Spanish.
This selection of Gauguin's writings brings together texts that illuminate his conception of art and his vital philosophy, in which he questions the civilisation of his era and champions a more instinctive and free gaze, close to the primitive, which anticipates later cultural debates.
The Spanish translation is by Margarita Latorre. The Barral Editores edition appeared in Barcelona in 1974.
For readers interested in the figure of Paul Gauguin, the history of art, and artists' writings on their own work.
Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin was a French painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, and writer, whose work has been primarily associated with the Post-Impressionist and Symbolist movements. He was also an influential practitioner of wood engraving and woodcuts as art forms. While only moderately successful during his lifetime, Gauguin has since been recognized for his experimental use of color and Synthetist style that were distinct from Impressionism.
