[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.

  • Press Kit: VINCI, the Art of Museums
    PRESS KIT VINCI, the art of museums Press kit /// VINCI, the art of museums /// June 2013 1 Introduction The Museum concept was first introduced in Europe, primarily in France, at the end of the 18th century for reasons that originally had nothing to do with economics or urban amenity. Until the 1950s, the purpose of the museum was exclusively conservation, in a continuation of the 19th century tradition of private collections. The real museum revolution originated primarily in the United States, where Peggy Guggenheim laid the foundations for the 20th century museum industry, and was also driven by democratisation and the development of cultural industries in Europe. Today, the number, role and visibility of these institutions have undergone radical change. No longer exclusively focused on conservation, the museum has become a flagship institution that lends resonance to the community. Cultural activities create economic value and give cities momentum. Culture also promotes social inclusion when approached as a way to improve "living together". The museum is now seen as an urban landmark and a driver of urban life. With its innovative and bold architecture, the museum is often a work of art in its own right. Building or renovating a museum is therefore a high profile but complex operation. The success of such projects requires broad vision, acknowledged capabilities in advanced technology engineering, sophisticated resources, flawless coordination and total commitment to managing people. On the strength of these qualities, VINCI companies regularly work on exceptional museum projects around the world. Their design, building, network and maintenance expertise makes all the difference in the demanding museum market.
