[email protected] ANDRÉ DERAIN 1880 – 1954 FROM FAUVISM TO CLASSICISM January 24 – February 21, 2020 WHEN THE FAUVES... SOME MEMORIES BY ANDRÉ DERAIN At the end of July 1895, carrying a drawing prize and the first prize for natural science, I left Chaptal College with no regrets, leaving behind the reputation of a bad student, lazy and disorderly. Having been a brilliant pupil of the Fathers of the Holy Cross, I had never got used to lay education. The teachers, the caretakers, the students all left me with memories which remained more bitter than the worst moments of my military service. The son of Villiers de l’Isle-Adam was in my class. His mother, a very modest and retiring lady in black, waited for him at the end of the day. I had another friend in that sinister place, Linaret. We were the favourites of M. Milhaud, the drawing master, who considered each of us as good as the other. We used to mark our classmates’s drawings and stayed behind a few minutes in the drawing class to put away the casts and the easels. This brought us together in a stronger friendship than students normally enjoy at that sort of school. I left Chaptal and went into an establishment which, by hasty and rarely effective methods, prepared students for the great technical colleges. It was an odd class there, a lot of colonials and architects.

  • Fauvism (Henri Matisse)  Non-Realistic Colours Are Used but the Paintings Are Seemingly Realistic
    Non-Photorealistic Rendering of Images Work Division This project has been dealt with in three phases- Phase 1 Identifying explicit features Phase 2 Verification using viewers Phase 3 Technology(Coding) Phase 1 In this phase we tried to identify the explicit features in a group of paintings belonging to the same period and/or to the same artist. Following are the styles we implemented using image processing tools Fauvism Pointillism Cubism Divisionism Post Impressionism(Van Gogh) Phase 1 Fauvism The subject matter is simple. The paintings are made up of non-realistic and strident colours and are characterized by wild brush work. Phase 1 Pointillism We noticed that the paintings had a lot of noise in them and it looked like they were made by grouping many dots together in a proper way. There’s no focus on the separation of colours. Phase 1 Cubism It looked as if the painting was looked through a shattered glass which makes it look distorted. Phase 1 Divisionism The paintings are made up of small rectangles with curved edges each with a single colour which interact visually. Phase 1 Post Impressionism (Van Gogh) These paintings have small, thin yet visible brush strokes. They have a bright, bold palette. Unnatural and arbitrary colours are used. Phase 2 In this phase we verified the features we identified in phase 1 with other people We showed them a group of paintings belonging to a certain era and/or an artist and asked them to write down the most striking features common to all those paintings. Phase 2 Here are the inferences we made from the statistics collected Fauvism (Henri Matisse) Non-realistic colours are used but the paintings are seemingly realistic.

  • THE POLITICS of the COMMON LAW PERSPECTIVES, RIGHTS, PROCESSES, INSTITUTIONS Second Edition
    THE POLITICS OF THE COMMON LAW PERSPECTIVES, RIGHTS, PROCESSES, INSTITUTIONS Second Edition ADAM GEAREY, WAYNE MORRISON AND ROBERT JAGO THE POLITICS OF THE COMMON LAW Perspectives, Rights, Processes, Institutions The Politics of the Common Law offers a critical introduction to the legal system of England and Wales. Unlike other conventional accounts, this revised and updated second edition presents a coherent argument, organised around the central claim that contemporary post colonial common law must be understood as an articulation of human rights and open justice. The book examines the impact of human rights on the structures and ideologies of the common law and engages with the politics of the rule of law. These themes are read into normative accounts of civil and criminal procedure that stress the importance of due process. The fi nal sections of the book address the reality of civil and criminal procedure in the light of recent civil unrest in the UK and the growing privatisation of public services. The book questions whether it is possible to fi nd a balance between the requirements of economics and the demands of justice. Professor Adam Gearey, Birkbeck College, University of London; visiting professor in the Faculty of Law at Makerere University, Uganda (2001–2); the University of Pretoria, South Africa (2004) and the University of Peace, Costa Rica (2008–9); visiting fellow in the Center for Law and Society, University of California, Berkeley (2008–9).
