  • His Exhibition Features More Than Two Hundred Pieces of Jewelry Created Between 1880 and Around 1930. During This Vibrant Period
    his exhibition features more than two hundred pieces of jewelry created between 1880 and around 1930. During this vibrant period, jewelry makers in the world’s centers of design created audacious new styles in response to growing industrialization and the changing Trole of women in society. Their “alternative” designs—boldly artistic, exquisitely detailed, hand wrought, and inspired by nature—became known as art jewelry. Maker & Muse explores five different regions of art jewelry design and fabrication: • Arts and Crafts in Britain • Art Nouveau in France • Jugendstil and Wiener Werkstätte in Germany and Austria • Louis Comfort Tiffany in New York • American Arts and Crafts in Chicago Examples by both men and women are displayed together to highlight commonalities while illustrating each maker’s distinctive approach. In regions where few women were present in the workshop, they remained unquestionably present in the mind of the designer. For not only were these pieces intended to accent the fashionable clothing and natural beauty of the wearer, women were also often represented within the work itself. Drawn from the extensive jewelry holdings of collector Richard H. Driehaus and other prominent public and private collections, this exhibition celebrates the beauty, craftsmanship and innovation of art jewelry. WHAT’S IN A LABEL? As you walk through the exhibition Maker and Muse: Women and Early Guest Labels were written by: Twentieth Century Art Jewelry you’ll Caito Amorose notice a number of blue labels hanging Jon Anderson from the cases.

Récompensée « Exposition d’intérêt national » par le Ministère de la Culture et de la Communication, cette grande exposition d’été retrace le panorama complet de la production foisonnante de Mucha en restituant l’atmosphère de créativité caractéristique de la Belle Epoque. La dernière rétrospective consacrée à cet artiste remonte déjà à plus de 30 ans, à Paris, aux Galeries Nationales du Grand Palais. Avec cette exposition, le musée Fabre de Montpellier Agglomération se distingue, une nouvelle fois, par la force, la qualité et la primeur des expositions présentées pour le plus grand plaisir des visiteurs. De grandes expositions couronnées de succès se sont ainsi succédées au musée Fabre dans l’espace consacré aux expositions temporaires. Citons pour mémoire L’impressionnisme de France et d’Amérique, François–Xavier Fabre, peintre et collectionneur, les rétrospectives Courbet et Emil Nolde. Aujourd’hui, ce sont plus de 720 000 visiteurs qui ont déjà franchi ses portes depuis sa réouverture en février 2007, pour découvrir ses collections permanentes et expositions temporaires. Ce succès, nous le devons à la qualité des collections permanentes et à la renommée internationale des expositions temporaires, présentées notamment grâce à la confiance que nous accordent les plus grands musées nationaux : le Musée national d’art moderne, le musée d’Orsay, le Metropolitan Museum of Art de New York, le Grand Palais… Georges FRÊCHE Président de Montpellier Agglomération, Président de la région Languedoc-Roussilllon 1 Sommaire 1.

  • Jean Lahor Rt Nouveau Designates a Decorative and Architectural Style Developed in the 1880S and 1890S in the West
    Art Nouveau Jean Lahor rt Nouveau designates a decorative and architectural style developed in the 1880s and 1890s in the West. Born in reaction to the industrial revolution and to the A creative vacuum it left behind, Art Nouveau was at the heart of a “renaissance” in the decorative arts. The primary objective of the movement was the creation of a new aesthetic of Nature through a return to the study of natural subjects. In order to achieve this, such artists as Gustav Klimt, Koloman Moser, Antoni Gaudí, Jan Toorop, and William Morris favoured innovation in technique and novelty of forms. After its triumph at the Paris Universal Exposition in 1900, the trend continued and has inspired many artists ever since. Art Déco, the successor of Art Nouveau, appeared after World War II.
