Lavishly illustrated with exotic images ranging from Renoir's forgotten Algerian oeuvre to the abstract vision of Matisse's Morocco and beyond, this book is the first history of Orientalist art during the period of high modernism. Roger Benjamin, drawing on a decade of research in untapped archives, introduces many unfamiliar paintings, posters, miniatures, and panoramas and discovers an art movement closely bound to French colonial expansion. Orientalist Aesthetics approaches the visual culture of exoticism by ranging across the decorative arts, colonial museums, traveling scholarships, and art criticism in the Salons of Paris and Algiers. Benjamin's rediscovery of the important Society of French Orientalist Painters provides a critical context for understanding a lush body of work, including that of indigenous Algerian artists never before discussed in English. The painter-critic Eugène Fromentin tackled the unfamiliar atmospheric conditions of the desert, Etienne Dinet sought a more truthful mode of ethnographic painting by converting to Islam, and Mohammed Racim melded the Persian miniature with Western perspective. Benjamin considers armchair Orientalists concocting dreams from studio bric-à-brac, naturalists who spent years living in the oases of the Sahara, and Fauve and Cubist travelers who transposed the discoveries of the Parisian Salons to create decors of indigenous figures and tropical plants. The network that linked these artists with writers and museum curators was influenced by a complex web of tourism, rapid travel across the Mediterranean, and the march of modernity into a colonized culture. Orientalist Aesthetics shows how colonial policy affected aesthetics, how Europeans visualized cultural difference, and how indigenous artists in turn manipulated Western visual languages.

D'où vient que, jusqu'à très tard dans le XXe siècle, la peinture ait été jugée communément supérieure à la sculpture ? De la Renaissance italienne, qui posa la supériorité de la vue sur le toucher, du travail du peintre, imitant la superficie par les lignes et les couleurs, sur celui du sculpteur, qui ne rend l'épaisseur que par des masses et des volumes ? Non pas, démontre Jacqueline Lichtenstein. Suite aux bouleversements de la physique nouvelle, une autre hiérarchie des arts se met en place dans la France des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Préoccupée désormais par les effets sur le spectateur, l'esthétique nouvelle, sous l'impulsion de De Piles, oppose en une polarité inédite la sculpture, le toucher, le dessin et les Anciens d'une part, la peinture, la vue, le coloris et les Modernes de l'autre. Cette véritable topique structurera durablement le discours critique, de Diderot à Zola, de Baudelaire et Huysmans à nombre de contemporains. Aujourd'hui, le rapport entre la sculpture et la peinture s'est émancipé de toute hiérarchie. Pour mesurer ce bouleversement, il faut revenir à la généalogie et à l'histoire critique d'une vision des arts étonnamment durable.
