  • “Un Bel Atelier Moderne”: the Montparnasse Artist at Home Louise Campbell
    CHAPTER 14 “UN BEl ATElIER MOdERNE”: THE MONTpARNASSE ARTIST AT HOmE Louise Campbell In 1925, an article about studio-houses in the rue Cassini, Montparnasse, concluded: “We hear that there are charming things inside, but respectful of the privacy of these ‘homes’ of artists, we have not spoken of them” (L’Architecture 1925: 436). Such restraint— more typical of an architectural journal than of the popular press—did not last long. By the end of the decade, even specialized journals like L’Architecture were illustrating the interiors of the homes of artists who had commissioned leading architects to work for them. The journal—published by the Société Centrale des Architectes—was until 1927 dominated by reviews of exhibitions, reports of architectural competitions and congresses, analyses of public buildings and town-planning schemes. After that date, L’Architecture grew in size and scope; now supported by the Société des Architectes Diplômés par le Gouvernement and the Association Provinciale des Architectes Français, it included accounts of new buildings alongside historic ones and adopted a more conversational style. Although house interiors were shown devoid of their inhabitants, there was some discussion of the personality and tastes of the clients, rather than simply the architectural character of their homes. By contrast, the drier and more factual journal L’Architecte illustrated few interiors and generally identified clients only by their initials. This informal new tone reflects both the journalistic practices of 1920s and the publicity courted by contemporary artists. It does not merely indicate a dwindling concern for privacy and a merging of the techniques of the mass media with the sober traditions of architectural journalism.

Bibliographie sélective 39 VI. Annexes 40 2 I. Introduction « Peut-on considérer comme indésirable l’artiste pour qui Paris est la Terre promise, la terre bénie des peintres et des sculpteurs ? » C’est ainsi qu’André Warnod défendait dans Comœdia, en 1925, les artistes marginalisés, parce qu’étrangers, au sein du Salon des indépendants. De cette critique de la xénophobie du milieu de l’art français est née l’appellation « École de Paris ». Depuis, celle-ci désigne moins un mouvement qu’une génération de peintres et de sculpteurs de toutes nationalités, attirés, dès le tournant du xxe siècle, par la scène parisienne. Parmi eux, nombreux sont les artistes juifs arrivés à Paris avant 1914, venant des métropoles européennes mais aussi des bourgades juives de l’Empire russe. Ils sont allemands comme Lou Albert-Lasard ou Rudolf Levy, bulgares comme Jules Pascin, hongrois comme Béla Czóbel ou Alfred Reth, polonais comme Mela Muter, Simon Mondzain ou Marek Szwarc, russes comme Marc Chagall, Sonia Delaunay, Adolphe Feder, Michel Kikoïne, Jacques Lipchitz, Mané-Katz, Chana Orloff, Chaïm Soutine ou Ossip Zadkine, tchèques comme Georges Kars, italiens comme Amedeo Modigliani.

  • Artists: Yishuv and Israel: 1920-1970 by Ruth Markus INTRODUCTION
    Artists: Yishuv and Israel: 1920-1970 by Ruth Markus INTRODUCTION Until the 1970s women were always a minority among Israeli artists and most of them either followed the men or worked outside the leading artistic movements. Although the early twentieth-century Yishuv (the Jewish settlement in Palestine) was a pioneering society with egalitarian ideals, it was (like every society in the world) ultimately led and directed by men, and so too were the various artistic groups. Hence any attempt to isolate the women artists as a group is artificial and takes them out of any cultural-historical context. Nonetheless, there is no other way of understanding their role in Israeli art. Any discussion of the place of women in Israeli art immediately raises two key questions. First: Can we distinguish “feminine” characteristics in women’s art? Second: Can we identify distinctively Israeli characteristics in this art? Grouping women artists together as a separate category requires us to define what distinguishes them from male artists. What is Women’s Art? Does it express itself in “feminine” thematics? Or is it perhaps made of “feminine” materials and forms? Women artists themselves give diverse answers, stemming from two main standpoints. There are those who categorically refuse to relate to the question of their gender. Some of them do not want to be labeled “feminists” because of the militant connotations which they feel are associated with this term. Most of them argue that they should be judged as “artists” in the general sense, because any definition of them as a gender group heightens the inequality between men and women and perpetuates male-chauvinist conceptions.

  • Catalogue Entries 17–65 an INTRODUCTION to SHMUEL TATZ’S ART COLLECTION SOUTINE and HIS FRIENDS from L’ÉCOLE DE PARIS
    Soutine and L’École de Paris FROM SHMUEL TATZ’S ART COLLECTION IN CELEBRATION OF CHAÏM SOUTINE’S 125TH ANNIVERSARY Chaïm Soutine (1893-1943) came to Paris from Vilnius and remained until the end of his life an outsider, a unique introvert whom his colleagues referred to as a juif lituanien and juif maudit. “Indifferent to everything except painting, everywhere a stranger, Soutine,” wrote Jean-Paul Crespelle. Soutine developed a highly personal vision and painting tech- nique. He painted incessantly, spontaneously, to the point of exhaustion, driven by an obsessive energy, without preliminary studies, using broad brushstrokes and pure vibrant colors. Disregarding established concepts of beauty and harmony, he painted jumbled elements of a landscape, bloody carcasses of butchered animals, grim faces and bodies deformed by a life of hardship and disappointment. Until his first exhibition in Paris in 1924, Soutine lived in extreme poverty and survived only with the help of close friends who understood and admired his unique talent. Soutine’s worldview remained tragic and pessimistic throughout his life. At the outset of World War II, Soutine was in constant hiding from the Gestapo and died of a bleeding ulcer in Paris in 1943. Soutine, in my opinion, was a true genius – one who quickly burned up his talent. excerpted from “Litvak Art in the Context of the École de Paris” by Antanas Andrijauskas LITUANUS Vol.58, No.1 Author: Professor Antanas Andrijauskas Editor: Alicia Lubowski-Jahn Photographer: Alexander Royzman Translator: Dr. Agnė Narušytė

  • Chana Orloff (1888 - 1968)
    CHANA ORLOFF (1888 - 1968) Starokonstantinov 1888 - Tel-Aviv 1968 "First of all, I am attracted by the decorative aspect - the plastic aspect if you prefer me to call it like that- as well as character… I would like my artworks to be as lively as life… " - Chana Orloff. Born in Ukraine in 1888 , Chana Orloff embarked in 1905 for Palestine. Upon arrival in Paris five years later, she enrolled in « L’École des Arts Décoratifs » (School of Decorative Arts) which she quitted to study sculpture in Vassilieff Academy located in Montparnasse. There, she met fascinating characters of whom Soutine, Modigliani, or Zadkine soon became close relatives. By 1913, the Salon d’Automne, Salon des Tuileries and Indépendants welcomed her artworks. Bernheim Jeune Gallery also exposed her, along with Matisse, Rouault et Van Dongen in 1916. In 1919, literary and artistic Paris came in droves to Chana Orloff’s atelier to commission their portrait (her total body of work numbers over 300 of them). Her highly praised first solo exhibition takes place at the avant-garde Weyhe Gallery in New-York in the year of 1928, soon followed by another one in Tel-Aviv in 1935, where criticism is equally laudatory. In 1942, the anti-Jewish laws make up with her while her art reached its full maturity. Geneva. was her temporary haven of peace until her return to Paris in 1945. She found her home ransacked, and hundreds of sculptures were stolen or destroyed. In 1949, the Museum of Fine Arts in Tel Aviv exhibited 37 of her sculptures and numerous countries in Europe as well as the United States and Israel welcomed her artworks until Chana Orloff’s death in 1968.
