Book excerpt: This volume highlights French Post-Impressionist painter and draftsman Georges Seurat's (1859-1891) paintings and graphic works in words and pictures, and presents the artist's inspiration in his numerous preliminary studies for the paintings. Thirty masterpieces are presented in the audio guide in the "Art to Hear" series, and explained with exciting details from the checkered life of the artist. Seurat was a pioneering avant-garde artist who developed the painting technique of pointillism and therewith revolutionized the art world. His apparition-like, alienated appearing figures are in seeming contrast to the charming landscapes the artist sets them in, resulting in a subtle tension. The accompanying audio CD provides information about the pieces included in this book, enabling the reader to pay a "virtual" visit to a Seurat exhibition
