Fénéon identified greater scientific rigor as the key difference between Neo-Impressionism and its predecessor. Where the Impressionists were “arbitrary” in their techniques, the Neo- Impressionists had developed a “conscious and scientific” method through a careful study of contemporary color theorists such as Michel Chevreul and Ogden Rood. [1] A scientific method Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Bal du Moulin de la Galette, 1876, oil on canvas, 131 x 175 cm (Musée d’Orsay) This greater scientific rigor is immediately visible if we compare Seurat’s Neo- Impressionist Grande Jatte with Renoir’s Impressionist Moulin de la Galette. The subject matter is similar: an outdoor scene of people at leisure, lounging in a park by a river or dancing and drinking on a café terrace.

  • Vincent Cassel
    VINCENT CASSEL A FILM BY ÉDOUARD DELUC TUHEÏ ADAMS AND MALIK ZIDI RUNNING TIME: 1 HOUR 42 MINUTES CONTACTS INTERNATIONAL MARKETING INTERNATIONAL PUBLICITY Lucie Michaut Alexandre Bourg [email protected] [email protected] Katie Paxton [email protected] PHOTOS AND PRESS KIT DOWNLOADABLE ON THE EXTRANET https://www.extranetstudiocanal.com/Materiel/ SYNOPSIS 1891. Painter Paul Gauguin is already well-known in Parisian artistic circles, but is tired of the so-called civilized world and its political, moral and artistic conventions. Leaving his wife and children behind, he ventures alone to the other end of the world, Tahiti, consumed with a yearning for original purity, and ready to sacrifice everything for his quest. Impoverished and solitary, Gauguin pushes deep into the Tahitian jungle, where he meets the Maoris and Tehura, his muse, who will inspire his most iconic works of art. INTERVIEW WITH ÉDOUARD DELUC Where did your desire to make this film come from? Édouard Deluc: It comes from my encounter with Noa Noa, the travel diary Gauguin wrote after his first trip to Tahiti in 1893. It’s an adventure of incredible poetry, about the mysteries of creation, the love for distant lands, the absolute dedication to art, the need to create an oeuvre. But it’s also a story about love and freedom. I discovered the book during my studies at the Beaux-Arts, and it had stayed in my library ever since, like the ghost of a possible film. In 2012, after a summer reading W. Somerset Maugham’s The Moon and Sixpence (1919), another book with a rather crazy romantic strength, I dove once again into Noa Noa, that was lying on my desk.

  • Moma EXHIBITION EXPLORES EDVARD MUNCH's COMPELLING
    MoMA EXHIBITION EXPLORES EDVARD MUNCH’S COMPELLING ARTISTIC ACHIEVEMENT, SURVEYING HIS CAREER IN ITS ENTIRETY Major Retrospective Is the First to Be Held in An American Museum in Three Decades Edvard Munch: The Modern Life of the Soul February 19—May 8, 2006 The Joan and Preston Robert Tisch Gallery, sixth floor New York, February 14, 2006—Edvard Munch: The Modern Life of the Soul is the first retrospective devoted to the work of Edvard Munch (1863–1944)—the internationally renowned Norwegian painter, printmaker, and draftsman—to be held in an American museum in almost three decades. Featuring 87 paintings and 50 works on paper, it showcases Munch’s artistic achievement in its true richness and diversity, surveying his career in its entirety, from 1880 to 1944. Beginning with the artist’s early portraits and genre scenes, the exhibition charts Munch’s move away from Norwegian naturalism and towards an exploration of modern existential experience. Following each phase of his career, the exhibition shows Munch’s struggle to translate personal trauma into universal terms and, in the process, to comprehend the fundamental components of human existence: birth, love, and death. The exhibition is organized by Kynaston McShine, Chief Curator at Large, The Museum of Modern Art. MoMA is the only venue for the exhibition, which will be on view in The Joan and Preston Robert Tisch Gallery on the sixth floor from February 19 to May 8, 2006. Munch’s primary source of inspiration was his own life, which was marked by heartbreak, physical illness, emotional instability, and the deaths of some of his closest family members.

  • Figurative Art and Feminism
    Re-presenting melancholy: Figurative art and feminism Christina Reading A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Brighton for the degree of Doctorate in Fine Art April 2015 The University of Brighton in collaboration with the University for the Creative Arts Re-presenting melancholy: Figurative art and feminism Re-presentations of women’s melancholic subjectivity by women figurative artists from different historical moments, canonical images of melancholy and theoretical accounts of melancholy are brought together to address the question: ‘What aspects of women’s experience of melancholy have women figurative artists chosen to represent historically and contemporaneously, and further what is the importance of these artworks for understanding the nature of women’s melancholic subjectivity today?’ The question is examined through an original juxtaposition of women’s figurative art history, theories of melancholy and the author’s own studio practice. Adopting and refining Griselda Pollock’s method of the Virtual Feminist Museum, the thesis elaborates a new critical and creative space to gather, re-read and make artwork to address the theme of women’s experiences of melancholy (Pollock, 2007). The author curates a ‘virtual feminist museum’ of women’s figurative art dealing with melancholy, past and present. Using Pollock’s model as a trigger, the research project sets up a space for interrogating what new meanings are revealed in relation to notions of melancholy by examining the overlaps, collisions and juxtapositions between the works the author has selected and the works the author has made. The artworks are theorised and interpreted by their relationship to the following discourses: the history of figurative art practice, melancholy and feminism; Freud’s foundational text ‘Mourning and melancholia’ (1917); and the examination of the author’s own representational multimedia studio practice.

  • Artist: Period/Style: Patron
    TITLE:The Valley of Mexico from theLOCATION: Mexico DATE: 1882 C.E Hillside of Santa Isabel ARTIST: Jose Maria Velasco PERIOD/STYLE: Romanticism PATRON: MATERIAL/TECHNIQUE: Oil on Canvas FORM: This version of The Valley of Mexico from the Hillside of Santa Isabel is perhaps the most celebrated of a dozen or so images with the same subject done by the artist between 1875 and 1892. At one point, the brushstrokes that form the peaks of the snow-covered volcanoes, the rock formations and other details were done from memory, making it possible for the artist to change and manipulate the details of the landscape as he saw fit. FUNCTION: When The Valley of Mexico from the Hillside of Santa Isabel was painted, Velasco was a romantic-era painter with an interest in liber- ty and Mexican independence, and his painting invited viewers to contemplate a pre-Spanish Mexico, which, as usual, was considered to be an idyllic time of harmony and stability. CONTENT: Velasco’s The Valley of Mexico from the Hillside of Santa Isabel depicts a breathtakingly detailed pre-industrial Mexico City. In the painting, the mountains of Popocatepetl and Iztacciuhatl and Lake Texcoco can be seen in the background below a blue sky and swirl of voluminous clouds. Rocky brown crags and low brush dominate the foreground, an attention to surface detail that revealed the artist’s love of geology. Two indigenous individuals are presented in transit from the city to the country, reflecting a romantic, yet difficult socio-economic relationship between people and their ancestral land.The figures’ indigenous garments intrinsically relate to the national iconography displayed throughout the image.

Painted in June, 1889, Vincent’s most famous piece depicts the view (with the notable addition of an idealized village) from the east-facing window of his asylum room at Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, just before sunrise. Van Gogh depicted the view at different times of day and under various weather conditions, including sunrise, moonrise, sunshine-filled days, overcast days, windy days, and one day with rain. The hospital staff did not allow Van Gogh to paint in his bedroom, but he was able to make sketches in ink or charcoal on paper, and eventually he would base newer variations on previous versions. The pictorial element uniting all of these paintings is the diagonal line coming in from the right depicting the low rolling hills of the Alpilles mountains.

    Woman, demonstrating a shift in the nature of moth- Munch’s Madonna: erhood: that from a moral duty towards an option in a Exposing Motherhood in woman’s life. The methodologies of iconography and Nineteenth Century Europe feminism unravel the symbolically-charged painting, and serve as a means to understand the social impli- cations of motherhood in nineteenth-century Europe. Helena Gomez Where does Munch’s Madonna fit in the con- text of nineteenth-century cultural ambivalence to- wards the emerging New Woman? Although much of Munch’s work has been viewed in a misogynis- tic light, criticized as the objectification of women in the extreme, and seen as a threat to the sanctity of motherhood, there may be room for more subtle in- terpretation. Munch’s Madonna reflects the changing role of motherhood as a social arrangement, and the exploration of the feminine through the New Woman. Late nineteenth-century Europe was charac- terized by the slow decline of Church power since The Virgin Mary, icon of purity and paradig- the French Revolution, modern developments in sci- matic image of the unconditional loving and caring ence, and acceptance of physical and biological hu- mother, represents the idealization of motherhood par man needs; but more importantly, there emerged an excellence.
