Abstract

Centrée sur le dialogue entre le modèle et l'artiste, qu'il soit sculpteur, peintre ou photographe, l'exposition Le modèle noir de Géricault à Matisse explore l'imaginaire dans la représentation des figures noires à travers les oeuvres majeures de Gérôme, Cordier, Ward, Manet, Cézanne, Matisse, Nadar, Man Ray, etc. Tout en offrant une perspective continue, elle s'arrête sur trois moments clés : l'ère de l'abolition, la Nouvelle peinture et les débuts de l'avant-garde, les artistes post-guerre et contemporains. En adoptant une approche pluridisciplinaire, entre histoire de l'art et histoire des idées, le catalogue propose d'approfondir le sujet, encore peu étudié en France, avec plus d'une vingtaine d'essais et une chronologie illustrée. Il redessine une histoire de la modernité à travers l'évolution du regard et des problématiques esthétiques, politiques, sociales et raciales.

Abstract

"This revelatory study investigates how changing modes of representing the black female figure were foundational to the development of modern art. Posing Modernity examines the legacy of Edouard Manet's Olympia (1863), arguing that this radical painting marked a fitfully evolving shift toward modernist portrayals of the black figure as an active participant in everyday life rather than as an exotic "other." Denise Murrell explores the little-known interfaces between the avant-gardists of nineteenth-century Paris and the post-abolition community of free black Parisians. She traces the impact of Manet's reconsideration of the black model into the twentieth century and across the Atlantic, where Henri Matisse visited Harlem jazz clubs and later produced transformative portraits of black dancers as icons of modern beauty. These and other works by the artist are set in dialogue with the urbane "New Negro" portraiture style with which Harlem Renaissance artists including Charles Alston and Laura Wheeler Waring defied racial stereotypes. The book concludes with a look at how Manet's and Matisse's depictions influenced Romare Bearden and continue to reverberate in the work of such global contemporary artists as Faith Ringgold, Aimé Mpane, Maud Sulter, and Mickalene Thomas, who draw on art history to explore its multiple voices."--Publisher's description,

Abstract

Des météores dans la nuit où se confondent les milliers de manieurs de pinceaux. Jacques-Émile Blanche, Essais et portraits, 1912. Chez Manet et Degas, figures essentielles de la modernité des années 1860-1880, les analogies ne manquent pas, qu'il s'agisse des sujets qu'ils imposent, des genres qu'ils réinventent ou encore des cercles où ils se croisent. Ce qui les différencie, voire les oppose, est tout aussi marquant. À la sociabilité ouverte de Manet répond l'entourage restreint de Degas. Leurs convictions politiques ne s'expriment pas de la même manière, et leurs choix en matière d'exposition et de carrière sont source de dissensions, malgré l'amitié qui les lie. Cet ouvrage, qui confronte les chefs-d'œuvre de Manet et de Degas dans un dialogue inédit, nous invite ainsi à renouveler notre regard sur l'éphémère complicité et la durable rivalité de ces deux géants

Abstract

"This exhibition examines one of the most significant artistic dialogues in modern art history: the close and sometimes tumultuous relationship between Edouard Manet and Edgar Degas. Born only two years apart, Manet (1832-1883) and Degas (1834-1917) were friends, rivals, and, at times, antagonists who worked to define modern painting in France. By examining their careers in parallel and presenting their work side by side, this exhibition investigates how their artistic objectives and approaches both overlapped and diverged. Through more than 150 paintings and works on paper, Manet/Degas takes a fresh look at the interactions of these two artists in the context of the family relationships, friendships, and intellectual circles that influenced their artistic and professional choices, deepening our understanding of a key moment in nineteenth-century French painting. The exhibition is made possible by Alice Cary Brown and W.L. Lyons Brown, the Sherman Fairchild Foundation, and Harry and Linda Fath. Additional support is provided by the Janice H. Levin Fund, the Gail and Parker Gilbert Fund, The Sam and Janet Salz Trust, and Rosalind and Kenneth Landis. It is organized by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Musées d'Orsay et de l'Orangerie, Paris. This exhibition is supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities. The catalogue is made possible by Gregory Annenberg Weingarten, GRoW @ Annenberg. Additional support is provided by Anonymous, Robert M. Buxton, Elizabeth Marsteller Gordon, and Claude Wasserstein."

Abstract

"In the 1920s and '30s, Upper Manhattan became the center of an explosion of art, writing, and ideas that has since become legendary. But what we now know as the Harlem Renaissance, the first movement of international modern art led by African Americans, extended far beyond New York City. This volume examines for the first time the Harlem Renaissance as part of a global flowering of Black creativity, with roots in the New Negro theories and aesthetics of Alain Locke, its founding philosopher. Featuring artists such as Aaron Douglas, Archibald Motley, and William H. Johnson, who synthesized the expressive figuration of the European avant-garde with the aesthetics of African sculpture and folk art, this publication also includes works by lesser-known contributors who took a radically new approach to depicting Black subjects with dignity, interiority, and gravitas. This reframing of a celebrated cultural phenomenon shows how the flow of ideas through Black artistic communities on both sides of the Atlantic contributed to international conversations around art, race, and identity while helping to define our notion of modernism."
