  • Exposition De Picasso À Jasper Johns
    François-Mitterrand COMMUNIQUE DE PRESSE 8 avril I 13 juillet 2014 De Picasso à Jasper Johns L’Atelier d’Aldo Crommelynck La Bibliothèque nationale de France rend hommage au grand imprimeur d’art Aldo Crommelynck (1931-2008) en retraçant l’histoire de son atelier qui a contribué au prestige de Paris dans le domaine de l’estampe. En présentant une centaine d’œuvres issues de la collaboration entre l’imprimeur et les artistes étrangers avec lesquels il a travaillé à Paris et à New York, l’exposition offre une occasion exceptionnelle de découvrir des estampes rarement montrées et signées par Richard Hamilton, David Hockney, Jim Dine ou Jasper Johns. Initié à la gravure par le maître-imprimeur Roger Lacourière, Aldo Crommelynck ouvre son propre atelier à Montparnasse en 1956. En 1963, il installe avec son frère Piero une presse à Mougins, à côté de la maison de Picasso. L’entière disponibilité des frères Crommelynck suscite chez Picasso une véritable frénésie de création graphique : en résultent près de 750 planches, notamment la série des 347 gravures en 1968 et celle des 15 6 entre 1970 et 1972. En 1969, l’atelier parisien des frères Crommelynck déménage dans un hôtel particulier de la rue de Grenelle. En 1973, attiré par le renom de l’imprimeur de Picasso, Richard Hamilton vient y travailler et se lie d’amitié avec Aldo. À sa suite, l’atelier commence à être fréquenté par des artistes étrangers, majoritairement anglais et américains comme Jasper Johns, Jim Dine, David Hockney, Peter Blake ou Donald Sultan ; puis par des artistes plus jeunes comme George Condo ou David Salle.

Jahrhunderts * Nigel F. Palmer ‘Turning many to righteousness’ Religious didacticism in the ›Speculum humanae salvationis‹ and the similitude of the oak tree The ›Speculum humanae salvationis‹ is an elaborate religious and didactic text, made up of words and pictures in combination.1 It is generally held to have been composed in the earlier part of the fourteenth century, and in an ideal copy it consists of 4924 lines of rhyming Latin prose, preceded by a Summarium, together with 192 miniatures. It is well known to modern scholarship as the most widely circulated typological text from the Middle Ages, and chapters 3–42 present a sequence of New Testament events, ‘anti- types’, each of which is shown to have been foreshadowed by three figurae, ‘types’ or similitudes, mostly taken from the Old Testament. Chapters 1–2, with 8 pictures, take us from the Fall of Lucifer and the Creation of Adam and Eve to the Flood. Chapters 3–42, with 160 pictures, take us from the ___________________________________ 1 Speculum humanae salvationis. Texte critique. Traduction inédite de Jean Miélot (1448).

    Jim Dine's etchings Author Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) Date 1978 Publisher The Museum of Modern Art Exhibition URL www.moma.org/calendar/exhibitions/1817 The Museum of Modern Art's exhibition history— from our founding in 1929 to the present—is available online. It includes exhibition catalogues, primary documents, installation views, and an index of participating artists. MoMA © 2017 The Museum of Modern Art JIM DINES ETCHINGS The Museum of Modern Art An exhibition organized by The Museum of Modern Art, New York, with the generous support of the National Endowment for the Arts, Washington, D.C., a federal agency About five years after they attended Ohio University in Athens together, Andrew Stasik invited his friend Jim Dine to make a print at Pratt Graphics Art Center in New York. A program at Pratt funded by the Ford Foundation had been established to encourage American artists to col laborate with professional European printers in the creation of lithographs and etchings. Even in the mid-twentieth century the word "etching" meant, to most people, the ubiquitous black-and-white views of famous buildings, homes, and landscapes, or to the connoisseur, the important images of Rembrandt and Whistler. Contemporary works by S. W. Hayter and his followers, because of the complex techniques utilized, were bet ter known by the generic term "intaglio" prints. After making a few litho graphs, Dine worked on his first intaglio prints in 1961 with the Dutch woman printmaker Nono Reinhold. They were simple drypoints of such familiar objects as ties, apples, and zippers.
