From a Renaissance sculpture to an 18th century painting or a Cubist drawing, schools. Origin of the project: The organizers of this new fair are none other than those who created the Salon du Dessin, the international scope of which has contributed to making Paris one of the major centres for this domain. Because they believe in the future of Paris and in specialized fairs, they have decided to apply the fundamental principles and demands that governed the organization of the Salon du Dessin to this event: • the stands are drawn by lot; • a comfortable setting, conceived without ostentation and on a human scale; • a vetting committee comprised of well known specialists who are not exhibitors. and reveal the wealth of the three major disciplines, painting, drawing and sculpture which will be freely associated on each of the stands. Diversity and quality are the hallmarks of this new fair, whether in media, periods, subjects on view, but also budgets because museum quality works exhibited by major galleries can be shown alongside “discoveries” by young dealers presented at lower prices. Exhibitors from Varied backgrounds: Together with dealers who show regularly at the most prestigious fairs such as Jonchkeere (Switzerland), Canesso (France), Arnoldi-Livie (Germany) and Brame & Lorenceau (France), young emerging galleries will exhibit, such as Édouard Ambroselli (France), Xavier Eeckhout (France) and Éric Gillis Fine Art (Belgium). 3 FINE ARTS PARIS The Salon of Drawing, Painting and Sculpture A noteworthy fact for a new fair, half of the galleries will be from abroad. They include some old faithful from the Salon du Dessin such as Newhouse, Pandora and Brady from New York who will show another facet of their galleries with a selection of paintings and sculptures. But we will also have the pleasure of discovering, among others, the galleries Paolo Antonacci Srl from Rome, José de la Mano from Madrid, A Voyage to the Land of Art: because their fantasy, extravagance, or handling, are in our view highly unusual. In this way, you will see a Dragon of the Apocalypse century, with rather strange and aggressive birds’ (geese?) heads (Benjamin Proust Fine Art Ltd, page 32). A bronze sculpture showing Homer and his Guide by James visible near a piece that is full of discretion and otherness such by Antoine Poncet made in 1959. (Brame & Lorenceau, page 15). Among the paintings of religious subjects, a Mangbetu Woman from the Basin of the Uele, a pastel by Suzanne Castille (Galerie Orsay Paris, page 28) will be exhibited. The Biblical crime scene of Judith with the Head of Holophernes by Pedro Nuñez del Valle (Porcini, page 30) will fascinate us, as will the Macabre Scene by Julien Adolphe Duvocelle (Galerie Michel Descours, page 18). Another unexpected work, The Wave, a beautiful allegory sculpted by Ville Vallgren, will also attract our attention (Galerie Edouard Ambroselli, page 9). Before the major Delacroix exhibition the Musée du Louvre is preparing for next spring, we can admire at the fair a work showing Hercules Taking the Belt of Hippolyte, Queen of the Amazons (Galerie de Bayser, page 14). 4 FINE ARTS PARIS The Salon of Drawing, Painting and Sculpture From Fez to Fontainebleau, whether it is still or moving, arid or torrential, landscape has inspired artists. For this edition, an invitation to travel will be brought together with The Grand Canal of Venice in front of the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute (Antonacci-Lapiccirella, page 10), a Landscape of Cagnes in which Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s use of colour makes us feel the heat of the moment (Bailly Gallery, page 13). In his Garden at Fez Bernard Boutet de Monvel reveals a landscaped and structured garden (Galerie Fabienne Fiacre, page 20), contrasting strongly with the View of a Suburb by Claude-Emile Our wandering also continues with portraits. At FINE ARTS PARIS, we will meet a de Jonckheere, page 24), a Saint James the Greater by Jusepe de Ribera (Galerie Canesso, Bust length portrait of Madeleine Burty (Galerie Chantal Kiener, page 25), the Portrait of Antoine Vollon by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (W.M. Brady & Co., page 39) painted with broad brush strokes and the rather saucy portrait of Simone drawn by Jules Pascin (Jill Newhouse Gallery, page 23). drawings shown at Fine Arts Paris. You will for example be able to admire a beautiful sheet by François Boucher showing Jephte lamenting at the sight of his daughter (Ratton Ladrière, page 34), just like a Cubist Composition by Joseph Csaky (Rosenberg & Co., page 35) and sailing between these two seas, a very beautiful Untitled watercolour by Zao Wou Ki (Aktis, page 8). FINE ARTS PARIS is thus an invitation, a stroll through periods, subjects, techniques, galleries. An invitation to the senses to reach the heart of the emotions that make every collector vibrate. To let your minds wander at the fair, meet at the press view on Tuesday 7 November at 2 p.m.! 5 List of 34 exhibitors in alphabetical order page 07 Didier Aaron - France page 08 Aktis Gallery - England page 09 Galerie Édouard Ambroselli - France page 10 Antonacci-Lapiccirella Fine Art - Italy page 11 Paolo Antonacci Srl - Italy page 12 Arnoldi-Livie - Germany page 13 Bailly Gallery - Switzerland page 14 Galerie de Bayser - France page 15 Brame & Lorenceau - France page 16 Galerie Canesso - France page 17 Art Cuéllar-Nathan - Switzerland page 18 Galerie Michel Descours - France page 19 Galerie Xavier Eeckhout - France page 20 Galerie Fabienne Fiacre - France page 21 Éric Gillis Fine Art - Belgium page 22 Jean-François Heim - Switzerland page 23 Jill Newhouse Gallery - USA page 24 Galerie De Jonckheere - Switzerland page 25 Galerie Chantal Kiener - France page 26 José de la Mano Galerìa de Arte - Spain page 27 Mathieu Néouze - France page 28 Galerie Orsay Paris - France page 29 Pandora Old Masters Inc. - USA page 30 Porcini - Italy page 31 Galerie de la Présidence - France page 32 Benjamin Proust Fine Art Ltd - England page 33 Artur Ramon Art - Spain page 34 Galerie Charles Ratton et Guy Ladrière - France page 35 Rosenberg & Co. - USA page 36 Talabardon & Gautier - France page 37 Galerie Terrades - France page 38 Trebosc & Van Lelyveld - France page 39 W.M.

Ville Vallgren (1855-1940) The Wave, Circa 1893 Original terracotta 32 x 13.5 x 11.5 cm Signed “Vallgren” on the base Galerie Édouard Ambroselli - France Nestled in a small, tree-shaded courtyard in the heart of the Drouot quarter, the Edouard Ambroselli Gallery invites you to discover, behind closed doors, a set of selected works, all of which are quite exceptional. Passionate about «the modern in the ancient», for many years Édouard Ambroselli has specialised in paintings and drawings from the XIXth th century. Also cultivating an interest in sculpture from the Middle Ages to the present day, he has a preference for clay modelling, which, he feels, has a more spontaneous appearance, which reveals more about the artist’s inner genius.
