    Frances Hodgkins 14 auckland city art gallery modern european paintings in new Zealand This exhibition brings some of the modern European paintings in New Zealand together for the first time. The exhibition is small largely because many galleries could not spare more paintings from their walls and also the conditions of certain bequests do not permit loans. Nevertheless, the standard is reasonably high. Chronologically the first modern movement represented is Impressionism and the latest is Abstract Expressionism, while the principal countries concerned are Britain and France. Two artists born in New Zealand are represented — Frances Hodgkins and Raymond Mclntyre — the former well known, the latter not so well as he should be — for both arrived in Europe before 1914 when the foundations of twentieth century painting were being laid and the earlier paintings here provide some indication of the milieu in which they moved. It is hoped that this exhibition may help to persuade the public that New Zealand is not devoid of paintings representing the serious art of this century produced in Europe. Finally we must express our sincere thanks to private owners and public galleries for their generous response to requests for loans. P.A.T.

Tout a commencé lors de mon installation à Londres, au début des années quatre-vingt. J’y ai découvert le monde des galeries d’art, des ventes aux enchères et très vite cet univers fascinant s’est imposé à moi comme une évidence et devint une passion. Mon intérêt pour l’art belge, essentiellement celui de la fin du 19e siècle et du début du 20e siècle, répondait parfaitement à ma sensibilité naissante et à mon sentiment d’exilé. Dès 1991 j’ai donc commencé avec les encouragements de ma mère, qui adorait fouiner, à rechercher et à acquérir des œuvres d’artistes belges de cette période. Peu de temps après, j’ai eu la chance de rencontrer Sabine Taevernier qui est devenue, et qui est encore aujourd’hui, ma conseillère.

  • Continuum 119 a Belgian Art Perspective
    CONTINUUM 119 A BELGIAN ART PERSPECTIVE OFF-PROGRAM GROUP SHOW 15/04/19 TO 31/07/19 Art does not belong to anyone, it usually passes on from one artist to the next, from one viewer to the next. We inherit it from the past when it served as a cultural testimony to who we were, and we share it with future generations, so they may understand who we are, what we fear, what we love and what we value. Over centuries, civilizations, societies and individuals have built identities around art and culture. This has perhaps never been more so than today. As an off-program exhibition, I decided to invite five Belgian artists whose work I particularly like, to answer back with one of their own contemporary works to a selection of older works that helped build my own Belgian artistic identity. In no way do I wish to suggest that their current work is directly inspired by those artists they will be confronted with. No, their language is mature and singular. But however unique it may be, it can also be looked at in the context of the subtle evolution from their history of art, as mutations into new forms that better capture who these artists are, and the world they live in. Their work can be experienced within an artistic continuum, in which pictorial elements are part of an inheritance, all the while remaining originally distinct. On each of these Belgian artists, I imposed a work from the past, to which they each answered back with a recent work of their own.

REFUGE/SILENCE, in partnership with the Kunstforum gallery in Solothurn, from 28 September 2019 to 5 April 2020 in the space dedicated to contemporary creation. Johan Tahon, internationally renowned Belgian artist, is exhibiting a strong and committed body of work that reveals his deep connection with the ceramic medium. In the space devoted to contemporary creation, visitors enter a mystical world inhabited by hieratic monks, leading them into a second gallery where, in addition to the figures, pharmacy jars or albarelli are displayed. A direct reference to the history of faience, the ointments, powders and medicines contained in such vessels were intended to heal both body and soul. A sensitive oeuvre reflecting the human condition Johan Tahon’s oeuvre evolves in an original and individual way.

  • Press Release Brafa 2020 All Together Different
    PRESS RELEASE BRAFA 2020 ALL TOGETHER DIFFERENT Over more than fifty years, Galerie Oscar De Vos built a tradition of prestigious exhibitions on Modern Belgian Art, with an emphasis on the art of The Latem School. Artists such as George Minne, Valerius De Saedeleer, Gustave Van de Woestyne, Emile Claus, Albert Servaes, Constant Permeke, Gust. De Smet, Frits Van den Berghe and Hubert Malfait enjoy the appreciation of a large audience throughout museum exhibitions, publications in Belgium and abroad. Each of these artists loved the nature of Latem. There they created their works spontaneously and interacted with the other artists who resided in the village. The region of Flanders has long been an area rich in art. On the outskirts of the city Ghent, along the river Lys, artists relocated to the village of Sint-Martens-Latem. In Flanders, artists converged on Latem because of its beauty. In this pastoral environment were born a great many attractive works that could not have been originated in any city. The artworks on show during BRAFA 2020 will mainly be divided in two thematic sections: Symbolism and Expressionism (1890-1930). The collection of Galerie Oscar De Vos for the 65th BRAFA edition will mark this period as part of the flow of art history. The focus will be on artworks of an important provenance, being fresh on the art market and that have been exhibited in international art institutions, such as Venice Art Biennale, Amsterdam Stedelijk Museum, Eindhoven Van Abbe Museum, Hamburg Kunsthaus, London Royal Academy of Arts, Maastricht Bonnefanten Museum, Sao Paolo Museo de Arta Moderna.

The significance of Brussels as the capital of Art Nouveau is widely acknowledged.3 Its renown stems primarily from its architectural achievements and the exhibitions of the artist collective ‘Les XX’ (1884–93),4 which included James Ensor, Henry Van de Velde, Théo van Rysselberghe, George Minne, and Fernand Khnopff.

Minne Like many other artists of his time, George Minne finds his inspiration in medieval art. The purity of his work is reminiscence of the religious and spiritual creations of Gothic sculpture. Minne realises this purity and simplicity by removing the narrative context from the work. His themes are often personalised by mother and child, but in this case by father and son. De Prodigal Son was borrowed from a parable in the New Testament in which a son returns to demand his inheritance from his still living father. The son squanders the money on his sinful and meaningless life. When all the money is gone, he is forced to take a job. At that moment, the son comes to his senses and decides to return home and ask forgiveness of his father. Instead of punishing him, the father welcomes him home and they celebrate his return. The unconditional love between parent and child in this story has been a source of inspiration for many artists. In this sculpture, Minne carves the father’s face, especially the eyes, in sharp lines. His expression is moving and intensely emotional.

Artist description:: It is a strange twist of fate that the Patershol neighbourhood repeatedly played a decisive role in the development of painting in the region of the Leie. In the 1890s, it was the meeting place for the most important members of the so-called first Latem group: Minne, Van de Woestyne, De Saedeleer, de Praetere. In 1906, it appeared that history had repeated itself. In 1906-in the same neighbourhood-the foundations of the second group were laid: academy students Permeke, De Smet and Van den Berghe exchanged thoughts and worked on their future.

  • Constant Permeke
    EN Constant Permeke — 1 BezoekersgidsPermeke-E.indd 1 14/06/16 15:21 — Flemisch Orchard 1923 2 — BezoekersgidsPermeke-E.indd 2 14/06/16 15:21 — Flemish Expressionism Constant Permeke is considered to be the most important representative of Flemish Expressionism, although he himself never formally joined the Sélection group that had coined the term. He developed a unique style through which he aspired to express spontaneous feelings via distortions, colours and material. His art speaks of the everyday lives of simple folk in relation to nature. Permeke observed individuals in their surroundings, such as the fishermen of Ostend and the farmers in the areas of Ghent and Jabbeke; the people he lived alongside and to whom he felt a close connection. He particularly wanted to express the hardship of their lives, which were spent in poverty and affliction, and the cosmic connection between mankind and nature. Permeke moved several times: from Antwerp, to Ostend, Sint-Martens- Latem, back to Ostend and, finally, to Jabbeke. He lived through two world wars, and was not spared by fate – he lost two of his six children at a young age. The style and the subject matter of his works are very closely linked to the events that took place in the course of his life. — Early years Constant Permeke was born in Antwerp on 31 July 1886 and, six years later, moved to Ostend with his family. His father, Henri Louis Permeke, was a painter and restorer who became the first curator of the Museum of Fine Arts in Ostend. At twenty, Permeke enrolled at the Ghent Academy.
