GUINO / RENOIR, THE IRONY OF A GENIUS

How can we imagine that working with a genius could do us a disservice? Or that an artist should fade away at the end of a fruitful collaboration? Yet this was the fate that befell the Catalan sculptor Richard Guino after working alongside Auguste Renoir between 1913 and 1917. Without realising it, the artist helped to create and nurture a breathtaking "goldmine" exploited by the influential art dealer Ambroise Vollard, who was behind the project.
