Abstract

Cette monographie vient compléter, à travers l'œuvre singulièrement radical de Michel Parmentier, l'histoire de la peinture de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle. Le titre mentionne deux œuvres de Michel Parmentier, celle que l'artiste situait " à l'origine " de son œuvre (" Décembre 1965 "), et sa dernière, réalisée le 20 novembre 1999. Les contenus de cet ouvrage ont été constitués et rassemblés par Guy Massaux, co-fondateur, avec Bénédicte Victor-Pujebet, de l'association Michel Parmentier (AMP - Fonds Michel Parmentier, Bruxelles), un premier état ayant fait l'objet de l'exposition " Michel Parmentier. Déc. 1965 - 20 nov. 1999, une rétrospective. ", qui s'est tenue à la Villa Tamaris Centre d'Art, à l'été de 2014. L'ensemble édité ici réunit un choix de 31 œuvres majeures de l'artiste, contextualisé par 278 documents (pour la plupart inédits) provenant du fonds d'archives Michel Parmentier, de différentes bibliothèques, collections publiques et privées. D'autre part, cinq textes inédits sont publiés : une introduction à l'œuvre de l'artiste par Robert Bonaccorsi, deux textes critiques signés respectivement Philip Armstrong et Jean- Marc Poinsot, et un récit de création d'Agnès Foiret. Enfin, une analyse rigoureuse accompagne l'oeuvre de Michel Parmentier et les documents reproduits, à travers des textes et commentaires de Guy Massaux.

Abstract

Taking a fresh approach to discussions around one of the twentieth century's greatest artists, Picasso: The Artist and His Muses examines the significance of the six women who were most important to Picasso's artistic development, as well as exploring in depth the notion of the artist/muse relationship. Featuring texts by some of the world's leading female art writers, this publication covers work that spans most of Picasso's entire career, from 1906 through to the early 1970s. Focusing on the prominent muses throughout his life-Fernande Olivier, Olga Khokhlova, Marie-Therese Walter, Dora Maar, Francoise Gilot and Jacqueline Roque-making clear the impact that these women had on Picasso's creativity and their significant long-term influence on the development of his work. Coinciding with a travelling North American exhibition programme, this beautifully designed and illustrated book reopens the door to discussions around Picasso's life and work.

Abstract

Aging and creativity can seem a particularly fraught relationship for artists, who often face age-related difficulties as their audience's expectations are at a peak. In Four Last Songs, Linda and Michael Hutcheon explore this issue via the late works of some of the world's greatest composers. Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901), Richard Strauss (1864-1949), Olivier Messiaen (1908-92), and Benjamin Britten (1913-76) all wrote operas late in life, pieces that reveal unique responses to the challenges of growing older. Verdi's Falstaff, his only comedic success, combated Richard Wagner's influence by introducing young Italian composers to a new model of national music. Strauss, on the other hand, struggling with personal and political problems in Nazi Germany, composed the self-reflexive Capriccio, a "life review" of opera and his own legacy. Though it exhausted him physically and emotionally, Messiaen at the age of seventy-five finished his only opera, Saint François d'Assise, which marked the pinnacle of his career. Britten, meanwhile, suffering from heart problems, refused surgery until he had completed his masterpiece, Death in Venice. For all four composers, age, far from sapping their creative power, provided impetus for some of their best accomplishments. With its deft treatment of these composers' final years and works, Four Last Songs provides a valuable look at the challenges-and opportunities-that present themselves as artists grow older.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage est le fruit d'une double constatation. D'une part, il témoigne de la présence récurrente de la poupée dans le champ de l'art contemporain. De l'autre, il montre que ces jouets ainsi détournés en projet artistique véhiculent souvent un propos transgressif à l'encontre des normes en vigueur dans la société. En convoquant la poupée, l'artiste questionne deux notions essentielles en art - la mimesis et son corollaire le simulacre. Il semble donc logique que les artistes d'une modernité qui a rompu définitivement avec le concept d'imitation dirigent plus volontiers leur propos vers les grands débats qui agitent la société depuis les cent dernières années : perversions sexuelles, essor de la chirurgie esthétique, clonage, multiculturalisme, identités transgenres, reconfiguration de la famille traditionnelle, etc. En retraçant l'histoire de la poupée et en abordant les réflexions philosophiques qu'elle ne manque pas d'évoquer, Poupées et tabous, le double jeu de l'artiste contemporain dévoile un peu du mystère de son inquiétante étrangeté.

Abstract

Met 'Zuiver en ontroerend beweegloos. Prerafaëlitische sporen in de Belgische kunst en literatuur' gaat de auteur op zoek naar restanten van de beroemde Engelse kunststroming uit het midden en de tweede helft van de negentiende eeuw in de Belgische kunst (schilderkunst) en literatuur van het fin de siècle. Cruciaal daarin zijn van prerafaëlitische zijde figuren als Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ford Madox Brown en John Ruskin. Maar er waren een aantal continentale katalysatoren nodig die het prerafaëlitisme kenden en filterden in functie van een cultuurhistorische transfer naar onze contreien. Figuren als Pol de Mont, Jozef Muls, de gebroeders Khnopff, Charles van Lerberghe of Maurice Maeterlinck zijn daarbij van groot belang.
