    The Museum of Modern Art [1 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modemart NO. 32 FOR RELEASE: APRIL 22, 1975 FIVE RECENT ACQUISITIONS The first oil painting by the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863-1944) to enter a museum collection in New York City will go on view at The Museum of Modern Art April 22 in a show of Five Recent Acquisitions. The Storm, painted in 1893, is from a period universally agreed to be superior to Munch1s twentieth-century work in both pictorial and psychological values. Not more than one or two such paintings are still to be found in private hands and thus available to any museum outside Norway which, for some time, has forbidden their export. "This acquisitions show of works by Munch, Laurencin, Bonnard, Matisse and Rouault is distinguished not only by its quality but by the fact that each of the five pictures was purchased or solicited as a gift in order to fill a particular need or lacuna in the Museum Collection," according to William Rubin, Director of the Museum's Department of Painting and Sculpture. The exhibition, on view through June 22, complements the showing of new acquisitions by contemporary painters incorporated last autumn in adjacent galleries where work dating from the 1950s is regularly on view. Two Women (c. 1935) by Marie Laurencin, a fine example of her middle style, is the first painting by this outstanding twentieth-century woman artist to enter The Museum of Modern Art Collection, Three other acquisitions, Bonnard's Still Life (1946), Rouault's Calvary (1930), and Matisse's Notre-Dame (1914), fill par­ ticular needs in the Museum's already outstanding collection of works by these artists.

  • Marie Laurencin Nahmad Projects (1).Pages
    Press Release - 29.01.20 7 FEBRUARY - 9 APRIL 2020 PRIVATE VIEW: 6 FEBRUARY 2020, 6-8 PM Alexander Liberman, Marie Laurencin, 1949 Nahmad Projects is pleased to announce an exhibition of paintings by Marie Laurencin, the first solo presentation of her work in London since 1947. This selection of works demonstrates the genius in Laurencin's vision of a self-sufficient world of female affection and creativity. This exhibition seeks to celebrate Marie Laurencin’s qualities as a great modernist painter, her instrumental role in defining the Art Deco style, and her influence on a generation of the Parisian intellectual elite. As a young artist, Laurencin rose quickly as a prominent figure within the Cubists. She sold her first painting to Gertrude Stein and exhibited with Cubist group the Section d’Or in 1911. Yet her friendship with male artists and romance with Guillaume Apollinaire occluded historians’ ability to recognise her contribution to modernism. Many, including those closest to her, celebrated her feminine touch but balked at the notion of equal standing with her fellow male artists. Some, however, did notice her. Henri Matisse said of Laurencin in relation to her earlier connection with the Fauvist group: “She, at least, is no mere Fauvette.” Nahmad Projects - 2 Cork St, W1S 3LB +44 020 7494 2577 Press Release - 29.01.20 Marie Laurencin’s work is canonical in the history of twentieth-century painting, with contemporary art historian Elizabeth Otto hailing the artist as a “heroine of modernism” for giving form to female independence and to lesbian love and desire.

  • Picasso, Dalí, and Apollinaire: a Triangulation by Dr
    ©Hank Hine, 2015 Picasso, Dalí, and Apollinaire: A triangulation By Dr. Hank Hine © Salvador Dalí, Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí, Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York 2015 Dalí’s 1952 Portrait of Picasso in the 21st century, 1947, develops an iconography as complex as Dalí’s apparent relation to his subject, the Spanish artist 23 years his senior and his persistent referent as an artist and a Spaniard. This painting was loaned by the Fundació Gala Salvador Dalí and was displayed in the exhibition Picasso/Dalí, Dalí Picasso. As the painting’s title proposes Picasso’s countenance as it will appear in the future, an evolution of Picasso’s features is expected. In order to measure the extent of anticipated alteration in his portrait, we can examine the genesis of those changes in the face he presented to Dalí and to others in the era they shared. We desire to know who were these men who were shaped by similar currents and events and whose artistic responses were remarkably similar. The tide of modernism, the impact of Freud, Catalan language and Spanish identity, the wars and women, mark these artists equally. They each made allegorical responses to war. Yet the commerce between Picasso and Dalí was ardent and asymmetrical. Picasso generously provided Dalí and Gala passage to the United States in 1934. Picasso was already the leading avant-garde artist of his day when Dalí made his first trip out of Spain to meet the famous artist at his studio in 1926. There are stories of dinners in Paris. They shared friends, were photographed by the same photographers, and worked at times in the same idiom.

  • CUBISM and ABSTRACTION Background
    015_Cubism_Abstraction.doc READINGS: CUBISM AND ABSTRACTION Background: Apollinaire, On Painting Apollinaire, Various Poems Background: Magdalena Dabrowski, "Kandinsky: Compositions" Kandinsky, Concerning the Spiritual in Art Background: Serial Music Background: Eugen Weber, CUBISM, Movements, Currents, Trends, p. 254. As part of the great campaign to break through to reality and express essentials, Paul Cezanne had developed a technique of painting in almost geometrical terms and concluded that the painter "must see in nature the cylinder, the sphere, the cone:" At the same time, the influence of African sculpture on a group of young painters and poets living in Montmartre - Picasso, Braque, Max Jacob, Apollinaire, Derain, and Andre Salmon - suggested the possibilities of simplification or schematization as a means of pointing out essential features at the expense of insignificant ones. Both Cezanne and the Africans indicated the possibility of abstracting certain qualities of the subject, using lines and planes for the purpose of emphasis. But if a subject could be analyzed into a series of significant features, it became possible (and this was the great discovery of Cubist painters) to leave the laws of perspective behind and rearrange these features in order to gain a fuller, more thorough, view of the subject. The painter could view the subject from all sides and attempt to present its various aspects all at the same time, just as they existed-simultaneously. We have here an attempt to capture yet another aspect of reality by fusing time and space in their representation as they are fused in life, but since the medium is still flat the Cubists introduced what they called a new dimension-movement.

  • Katherine Dreier and Marcel Duchamp in the Library at the Haven, West Redding, Connecticut, Late Summer. 1936
    Katherine Dreier and Marcel Duchamp in the library at The Haven, West Redding, Connecticut, late summer. 1936. Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/octo.2010.131.1.116 by guest on 02 October 2021 Leather and Lace GEORGE BAKER In the true sense of the word, the “Société Anonyme” is today the only sanctuary of eso - teric character, contrasting sharply with the commercial trend of our times. 1 So wrote Marcel Duchamp in 1946, describing the “Société Anonyme, Inc.” at the moment of its historical culmination, an organization that, at its founding, had been subtitled the “Museum of Modern Art 1920,” and was housed in galleries at 19 East 47th Street in New York. In 1950, Duchamp’s main partner in this endeavor, Katherine S. Dreier, received a letter signed by Nelson Rockefeller on behalf of another institution, one situated by then some six blocks north, on 53rd Street. In actuality, the letter was written by that institution’s first director, Alfred Barr: In 1929 when we opened our doors, the Museum of Modern Art quite unwittingly assumed the second half of the Société Anonyme’s name. Since then we have followed your lead not only in name, but in several more important ways as our exhibitions and collections clearly show. Your foresight, imagination, courage, and integrity have been a frequent and important example to us. 2 At stake in this letter is a claim for continuity proposed at a moment of rupture: the letter was written on the very day the Société Anonyme was officially dissolved.

  • Modernism and World War I
    Fatal Symbiosis: Modernism and World War I In 1909, Ezra Pound, standing on a chair in a London cafe and assuming the persona of the Troubador poet and wanior Betrans de Born, declaimed the following lines from his new poem, "Sestina: Altaforte": Damn it all! all this our South stinks peace. There's no sound like to swords swords opposing, No cry like the battle's rejoicing When our elbows and swords drip the crimson. Hell grant soon we hear again the swords clash! Hell blot black for alway the thought "Peace"! That same year, in Paris, Filippo Marinetti published the "Foundation Manifesto" of Futurism on the front page of Le Figaro, part of which declares: "We will glorify war-the world's only hygiene-militarism, patriotism, the destructive gesture of freedom-bringers. Except in struggle, there is no more beauty. No work without an aggressive character can be a masterpiece. Poetry must be conceived as a violent attack on unlmown forces . l' (Selected Writings 4142). In the following two years, 1910-11, the Berlin avant-garde journals Die Aktion and Der Sturnz introduced new and highly disturbing images of cataclysmic war and apocalypse in the poems of Jakob Von Hoddis and Gottfried Benn, Georg Heym and Georg Trakl. Heym's "The War" (1911) images the disaster as an awakening monster: He that slept long has arisen, Arisen from deep vaults below. He stands in the dusk, huge and unknown, And crushes the moon to pulp in his black hand. By 1912-13,motifs of cannons and marching soldiers, exploding shells and burning cities proliferated in modernist painting, 2 Wal; Literature, and the Arts regardless of whether the canvas was painted in London or Berlin, Paris or Milan.

A letter to Cordier 6r Ekstrom Gallery, New York, in September 1965, where a Marcel Duchamp retrospective exhibition had just been presented, triggered a chain of events leading to the landing of a Marcel Duchamp exhibition in Auckland in April 1967, to commence a New Zealand tour —then to Australia and possibly Japan. We would like to thank Mrs Mary Sisler of New York who has generously made her collection available; Mr Alan Solomon, Director, The Exhibition of American Art at Montreal; The Arts Council of Great Britain, from whose comprehensive catalogue 'The almost complete works of Marcel Duchamp' the present catalogue has been compiled and who kindly supplied photographs for reproduction; The Queen Elizabeth II The Second Arts Council of New Zealand under whose sponsorship the exhibition is being toured in New Zealand.

  • Representations of Motherhood in French Visual Culture, 1910-1940
    LA MÈRE MODERNE: REPRESENTATIONS OF MOTHERHOOD IN FRENCH VISUAL CULTURE, 1910-1940 Davenne Essif A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Art History. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Daniel J. Sherman Edouardo Douglas Donald M. Reid Mary Louise Roberts Tatiana C. String ©2018 Davenne Essif ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Davenne Essif: La Mère Moderne: Representations of Motherhood in French Visual Culture 1910-1940 (Under the direction of Daniel J. Sherman) Between 1910 and 1940 in France, the ideal of motherhood fueled important political decisions, promoted dreams of a powerful nation, and defined French women’s roles as citizens. Within this context, visual images played a key role in reinforcing motherhood’s centrality to French cultural identity by distilling a range of values into readily accessible and widely distributed representations. Historical and art-historical studies that have addressed the role played by visual imagery for the most part reinforce the conventional tie between representations of mothers and themes of self-sacrifice, patriotism, and especially tradition. Yet between 1910 and 1940, much as today, motherhood embodied more than these conventional tropes. Representations of mother figures also actively participated in the construction of highly complex cultural identities and even modernity. In four thematic chapters, this study builds a complex and varied view

Bennahum, Committee Chair December 2018 The Modern Physis of Léonide Massine: Corporeality in a Postwar Era Copyright © 2018 by Lauren Elda Vallicella iii ACNOWLEDGMENTS The writing and research of this dissertation would not have been possible without the guidance, support, knowledge, and encouragement of myriad individuals. Foremost, I give my deepest gratitude to my committee members Anurima Banerji, Leo Cabranes-Grant, and my Chair Ninotchka Bennahum. Through directed readings, graduate seminars, and numerous conversations, each committee member has shaped my understanding of Performance Studies and Dance History in relation to theories such as Post-Structuralism, Phenomenology, Psychoanalysis, Embodiment, the Post Human, Affect, and “Otherness.” Dr. Banerji has helped me to approach Western ideologies (like Modernism) with a critical lens, and to write with more nuance and cultural specificity. Dr. Cabranes-Grant has been a constant source of stimulating perspectives and thoughtful reading suggestions, and has fundamentally shaped my own ability to think across disciplines. Dr. Bennahum has taught me how to be a dance historian, how to think critically about dance, and how to commune with history as an energetic, vital force.
