Noah Carneys Novel ‘The Art Thief’ concerns works by which artist?
Noah Charney's novel 'The Art Thief" concerns works by two artists: Caravaggio and Kazimir Malevich. Caravaggio was an Italian Baroque painter known for his dramatic use of light and shadow, while Malevich was a Russian Avant-Garde painter and founder of the Suprematist movement. The novel involves the theft of three paintings: one by Caravaggio and two by Malevich, and the investigation by various characters in different cities.
The answer is Vincent van Gogh. The novel follows the story of a young art thief who steals one of van Gogh's most famous paintings, ‘The Starry Night’. The thief is motivated by his belief that van Gogh was a misunderstood artist who was robbed of his rightful place in history. The novel explores the themes of art, theft, and the nature of genius.
