Keen to discover the world, he started to travel in 1872 for more than one year and visit Europe, Egypt, India and even Japan. During this long trip, and particularly when he saw the Italian Masters, he decided to become a painter. Thereafter, he frequently took inspiration in the richness of these cultures full of art and history that he studied during his initiatory trip. Since his return in 1874, Alfred Agache joined the Academic School of Lille, where he followed painting class under Henri-Eugène Pluchart and Alphonse Colas. As a talented student, he exhibited the following year at the Salon of French Artists, showing a lanscape of his native region, genre that he quickly abandonned. The young painter prefered portait, and especially feminine figures. Later he exhibited young ladies portraits at the Salon of French Artists, in dark and mysterious atmosphere that he enriched with symbols from allegorical category. These paintings were a resounding success near the public and also near his masters. Alfred Agache received honours and rewards. He was decorated by a silver medal in 1889 and then by a gold one during the 1893's World's Columbian Exhibition in Chicago where he has sent two paintings Vanity and The Annunciation. The Annunciation had been decorated once more by a gold medal during the 1900's Universal Exhibition. Agache was a faithful exhibitor at the Salon of the National Society of Fine Arts of wich he was one of the founders. In 1892 he entered the Museum of Lille's Committee for painting and became the curator of Lille's Museums in 1894 before he resigned at the end of 1895 for lack of means. He gained the Legion of Honour in 1895. The talent and the originality that come from his works show us a quite unusual artist. His painting emits softness and strength combined that makes him close to the symbolist movement. By mythological and religious themes, he explored the great themes of Symbolism, because he prefered his painting to be addressed directly to imagination and mind.

ART DECO and BRAZILIAN MODERNISM a Dissertation
SLEEK WORDS: ART DECO AND BRAZILIAN MODERNISM A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy in Spanish By Patricia A. Soler, M.S. Washington, DC January 23, 2014 Copyright by Patricia A. Soler All rights reserved ii SLEEK WORDS: ART DECO AND BRAZILIAN MODERNISM Patricia A. Soler, M.S. Thesis advisor: Gwen Kirkpatrick, Ph.D. ABSTRACT I explore Art Deco in the Brazilian Modernist movement during the 1920s. Art Deco is a decorative arts style that rose to global prominence during this decade and its proponents adopted and adapted the style in order to nationalize it; in the case of Brazil, the style became nationalized primarily by means of the application of indigenous motifs. The Brazilian Modernists created their own manifestations of the style, particularly in illustration and graphic design. I make this analysis by utilizing primary source materials to demonstrate the style’s prominence in Brazilian Modernism and by exploring the handcrafted and mechanical techniques used to produce the movement’s printed texts. I explore the origins of the Art Deco style and the decorative arts field and determine the sources for the style, specifically avant-garde, primitivist, and erotic sources, to demonstrate the style’s elasticity. Its elasticity allowed it to be nationalized on a global scale during the 1920s; by the 1930s, however, many fascist-leaning forces co- opted the style for their own projects. I examine the architectural field in the Brazil during the 1920s.

O URBANISMO DO INÍCIO DO SÉCULO XX: A ESCOLA FRANCESA DE URBANISMO E SUAS REPERCUSSÕES NO BRASIL: TRAJETÓRIAS DE ALFRED AGACHE E ATTILIO CORREA LIMA Marlice Nazareth Soares Azevedo, Milena Sampaio da Costa Resumo O trabalho busca fazer um paralelo entre a tese de doutorado de Attilio Correa Lima - Avant Projet d’aménagement et extension de de la ville de Niterói au Brésil – e o Plano de Remodelação, Extensão e Embelezamento da Cidade do Rio de Janeiro, elaborado por Agache, ambos realizados no mesmo período e concluídos em 1930. Na concepção desses trabalhos, o urbanismo é visto como instrumento de transformação da cidade, baseando-se na idéia de que o conhecimento técnico e científico pode responder, por si só, a necessidade de resolução de problemas urbanos. Essa corrente, que vem desde o início do século XX e prolonga-se até a década de 1970, está associada, no caso brasileiro, a governos fortes, intervencionistas, que tratam a cidade de forma global, acreditando ser capaz de, através do planejamento, controlar e guiar as transformações urbanas. Palavras-chave: Rio de Janeiro; Niterói; planos de remodelação, extensão e embelezamento. Abstract The paper pretends to draw a parallel between the doctoral thesis of Attilio Correa Lima - Avant Projet d'extension aménagement et de la ville de Niterói au Brésil – and the Plano de Remodelação, Extensão e Embelezamento da Cidade do Rio de Janeiro, from Agache, both developed in the same period and completed in 1930. For these studies, urbanism is seen as an instrument of transformation of the city, based on the idea that the technical and scientific knowledge can answer, alone, the urban problems.

Alfred Agache Em Curitiba E Sua Visão De Urbanismo
Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Programa de Pós-Graduação em Arquitetura PROPAR CONVÊNIO PROPAR / PUCPR DISSERTAÇÃO DE MESTRADO Alfred Agache em Curitiba e sua visão de Urbanismo Bráulio Carollo Orientador – Professor Douglas Vieira de Aguiar 2002 Dedico este trabalho a Rosângela, minha companheira inseparável, e meu filho Bráulio Lacerda Carollo, pelo constante apoio. Agradeço a colaboração e atenção recebida de meus professores, em especial Douglas Aguiar, meu orientador e a todos amigos, representado por Luis Salvador Gnoato, meu compadre, que de muitas formas me incentivaram. Às Instituições e as pessoas ligadas à Prefeitura Municipal de Curitiba, IPPUC e Casa da Memória, bem como a Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Paraná, PUC-PR, através do Curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo, que facilitaram o desenvolvimento deste. A todos, registro meus sinceros agradecimentos. RESUMO Entre 1940 e 1943, na procura de uma imagem condizente com sua condição de Capital de Estado e tentando acompanhar as grandes transformações urbanas que ocorriam na época, Curitiba contrata o arquiteto e urbanista francês Donat-Alfred Agache (1875-1959), que recém executara o Plano do Rio de Janeiro (1927), para elaborar o Plano de Urbanização para Curitiba. Fato que acaba se tornando o primeiro grande impacto urbano-arquitetônico na sociedade paranaense do século XX. A presente dissertação contextualiza essa proposta urbanística, a partir da formação profissional de Agache na Europa, sua participação na Sociedade Francesa de Urbanistas, o modo didático de fazer urbanismo, sua experiência no Rio de Janeiro e demais trabalhos no Brasil. Além de um simples Plano de Urbanização para Curitiba, Agache demonstra técnica e habilidade em enfrentar problemas e hábitos sociais, características que impõem sua ampla visão de cidade.

Manchester and Lille in Transnational Perspective, 1860 – 1914
Provincial Modernity: Manchester and Lille in Transnational Perspective, 1860 – 1914 Harry Andrew Higgo Stopes UCL This thesis is submitted for the degree of PhD. 1 I, Harry Andrew Higgo Stopes, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract In this thesis I explore the ways middle classes in two provincial cities imagined the relationship between the city and the rest of the world. How did they make sense of local identity in the light of economic, geopolitical and cultural globalisation? I examine the political cultures and social structures that sustained their ways of thinking, showing how their responses were shaped by the economic connections of the two textile cities, and were articulated in municipal cultural policy around art galleries and the opera. I follow other historians in arguing that although the nineteenth century is typically portrayed as the age of nationalism, the cultures of 'second cities' make a powerful contribution to the development of European modernity. Where I depart from other work on second cities is in my desire to work comparatively and with a transnational frame. I show that ideas about local character informed the ways provincial elites responded to globalisation around the turn of the century. In the first research chapter I discuss the composition of the middle classes in the two cities, and the institutions and practices which bound them together. In the second research chapter I discuss opera in Lille. Nineteenth century opera is traditionally seen as an important way for its patrons to promote particular ideas about national identity.

Association ESCAL 1 Les hypothèses de départ présentées dans ce numéro de la revue Artelogie partent de l’idée suivant laquelle les représentations artistiques de la nature en Amérique Latine révèlent une construction culturelle nuancée par les processus de colonisation du territoire par les Européens depuis le XVe siècle et par la formation postérieure des états modernes au début du XIXe siècle. Les images de milieux naturels et culturels produites durant cette période, se prévalant d’appartenir à la peinture de paysage et aux autres formes de représentation, sont le reflet des expériences directes ou d’expériences octroyées par les artistes, principalement étrangers ayant contribué à la création d’un imaginaire déterminé par l’exotique, l’exubérant, le sublime et le pittoresque. Par l’appropriation de formes esthétiques de tradition européenne, les images de la nature américaine entrent en résonance, dialoguent ou se combinent avec la culture matérielle et immatérielle locale.
