  • Romantic Paris, 1815-1848 April 2019 Exhibition at the Petit Palais and the Musée De La Vie Romantique 22 May – 15 September 2019
    PRESS RELEASE Romantic Paris, 1815-1848 April 2019 Exhibition at the Petit Palais and the Musée de la Vie Romantique 22 May – 15 September 2019 Tuesday - Sunday, 10 am - 6 pm INFORMATION Open late: Friday until 9 pm www.petitpalais.paris.fr After Paris 1900: La Ville Spectacle, the Petit Pa- lais is presenting Romantic Paris, a further epi- sode in its overview of the great periods that have shaped the city’s identity. This is both an exhi- bition and a cultural event : a sweeping pano- rama of the French capital during the Roman- tic years from the fall of Napoleon in 1815 to the revolution of 1848. Over 600 works – paintings, sculptures, costumes, objets d’art, furniture – plunge the visitor into the artistic, cultural and political ferment of the time. The exhibition’s immersive design takes the form of a tour of the period’s emblematic Paris sites : the Tuileries, the Palais-Royal, the Nouvelle Athènes quarter, Victor Hugo’s Notre-Dame, and the Grand Bou- levards and their theatres. At the same time an additional segment at the Musée de la Vie Ro- Eugène Lami, Carnival Scene, Place de la Concorde, 1834. Oil on canvas. Musée Carnavalet mantique rounds off the exhibition with a look at Crédit : © Musée Carnavalet / Roger-Viollet the city’s literary and high-society salons. Portraying a day in the life of the city, the tour begins in the early hours at the Palais des Tuileries, the royal residence and the nation’s political hub. Exceptional loans, notably from the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris, have enabled evocations both of the interiors and of figures who left their mark on fashion, like the Duchesse de Berry, or on the arts, like Marie d’Orléans, a remarkable sculptor in her own right.

  • WALK 2 | Jardin Du Luxembourg Start – Metro Station, Line 4 St-Germain-Des-Prés Approximate Length: 3.4 Km
    WALK 2 | Jardin du Luxembourg Start – Metro Station, Line 4 St-Germain-des-Prés Approximate Length: 3.4 km 7 8 10 9 N U = Underground Metro Station = Optional route Emerging from the Metro station, you will be on Boulevard Saint Germain. Go to Place Saint Germain des Prés. Pass by the café Les Deux Magots, and in the middle of the plaza across from the church, you will find a Wallace Fountain. Fountain 7 Place St. Germain des Prés, 6th Arr. This fountain is near the entrance to the old abbey church, Saint Germain des Prés. In warm months, the fountain is surrounded by outdoor seating for nearby cafes and restaurants. One 7 cafe is Les Deux Magots, made famous by its former clientele - lost generation writers, surrealist artists, and existentialist philosophers. Today, the cafe attracts tourists and those who want to feel they rubbed shoulders with the ghosts of long dead French intellectuals. Perhaps Hemingway or Sartre drank from this Wallace Fountain after they had too much to drink at Les Deux Magots. Saint Germain des Prés is the oldest church in Paris with parts dating back to the sixth century. If you have time, look inside. Undergoing renovation, it is slowly being restored to its original glory. Cross Boulevard St-Germain and walk south on Rue Bonaparte until you arrive at Place Saint-Sulpice. In the square and across the street from the town hall of the 6th arrondissement is a Wallace Fountain. Fountain 8 Place Saint-Sulpice, 6th Arr. At the southwest corner of the square stands the fountain.

Following defeat in the 1870 war, the demise of Napoleon III, and the Paris Commune, these men sought to reform the training of French politicians. Politically and economically, people feared France's international stature was waning due to inadequate teaching of its political and diplomatic corps. The new school developed a humanistic and pragmatic teaching program with instructors including academics as well as practitioners such as ministers, high civil servants, and businessmen. Sidney and Beatrice Webb used the purpose and curriculum of Sciences Po as part of their inspiration for creating the London School of Economics and Political Science in 1895. Sciences Po further strengthened its role as a scientific publication centre with significant donations from the Rockefeller Foundation. Sciences Po periodicals such as la Revue française de science politique, la Chronologie politique africaine, and the Cahiers de la Fondation as well as its nine research centers and main publishing house, Presses de Sciences Po, contribute to the notoriety attained by Sciences Po research. Sciences Po has undergone many reforms and introduced a compulsory year abroad component to its Bachelor degree, and now offers a multilingual curriculum in French, English, and other languages.

  • Shirley Goldfarb Cover.Indd
    SHIRLEY GOLDFARB AN AMERICAN PAINTER IN PARIS SHIRLEY GOLDFARB AN AMERICA IN PARIS AN AMERICAN PAINTER IN PARIS SHIRLEY GOLDFARB January 21 – March 15, 2021 212.695.0164 LORETTAHOWARD.COM 2 3 An Affair to Remember It seems, in retrospect, that artist Shirley Goldfarb was aptly, presciently named. Goldfarb translates into English as gold or golden color, a hue she gravitated toward almost heliotropically, and the color of some of her most ravishing paintings. It is a name that tagged her as a potential painter and chromaphile, which she proved to be, becoming an inspired and fearless colorist. It foretold, perhaps, that she would be attracted to light, both natural and artificial: the light created in a painting; the light of the spotlight illuminating the performer; the clarifying, incomparable light of Parisian skies.
