Practise Languages with Our Dear Teacher, These Art-Chat Cards Will Dear teacher, Practise languages These art-chat cards will help you and with your class practise language skills based our on selected works in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts Ghent (MSK). Art and design teachers can also use the cards to art initiate dialogues on art-related themes. You and your students can talk about everyday subjects from clothes to hobbies, parties to vacations, the five senses or anything else that comes to mind. What’s more, this is a great way to become acquainted with art and the MSK collection. The art-chat cards are a tool intended to spark lively discussions. The concept is chat simple: look at the work of art on the card, take inspiration from the example questions, and engage each other in conversation.

  • A Fisherman on a Beach Watercolour and Gouache, with Framing Lines in Brown Ink
    Henri EVENEPOEL (Nice 1872 - Paris 1899) A Fisherman on a Beach Watercolour and gouache, with framing lines in brown ink. Stamped with the artist's monogram he in a circle (not in Lugt) at the lower right. The artist's monogram also applied to a label stamped PROVENANT DE LA COLLECTION and inscribed Charles De Mey, and further inscribed Pecheur sur la plage / de Henri Evenepoel and Je certifie cette / oeuvre authentique / C. De Mey. on the old backing board. 570 x 411 mm. (22 3/8 x 16 1/4 in.) Given its size, this large drawing would seem to have been intended as a design for a poster or advertisement, rather than a book illustration. As the artist's biographer Francis Hyslop has written, 'A born draftsman with an eye to a self-supporting career, Evenepoel took an intense interest in the graphic arts.' He greatly admired and collected posters, prints and magazine or newspaper illustrations by artists such as Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (whose studio he visited, and who he described as 'an artist of immense value…a complete artist'), as well as Jules Chéret, Jean-Louis Forain, Théophile- Alexandre Steinlen and Adolphe Willette. As a means of earning some income in the first years of his brief independent career, Evenepoel designed around a dozen posters. One such poster, advertising the ferry line linking Ostend and Tilbury in Essex, was published in 1893, and includes the same sort of blank cartouche with a curlicued corner seen in the present sheet. A similarly dressed fisherman appears in another gouache design for a poster by Evenepoel of c.1894, promoting the beach resort of Nieuport-Bains in Flanders.

  • Logie. Hierhin Gehört U. A. Rembrandts Berühmte „Faust-Radierung“, Deren „Held" Als Magus Von Der Art Prosperos Gedeutet Wird
    logie. Hierhin gehört u. a. Rembrandts berühmte „Faust-Radierung“, deren „Held" als Magus von der Art Prosperos gedeutet wird. Im letzten Kapitel des Buches befaßt sich Hartlaub mit dem Spiegel als Symbol, wobei vor allem die Lehre von der Lichtverwandschaft und insbesondere der Sonnen- haftigkeit des Gerätes betont wird. Hier erscheint der Spiegel bald als Sinnbild der Lauterkeit und Jungfräulichkeit Mariä, bald als Zeichen der Sünde, der „Eitelkeit“, der „Vanitas“ und zwar als Selbstverliebtheit oder Vergänglichkeit. Zumal in den Werken der altdeutschen Maler tritt immer wieder die dirnenhaft geschmückte, nackte Frau mit dem Spiegel auf, am eindrucksvollsten bei Baldung, wo sich das Thema mit dem Motiv des Totentanzes verbindet. Der Spiegel ist aber auch das Sinnbild der Klugheit, einer der vier Kardinaltugen­ den, wobei seine Gesichte nun mehr aus dem lichten, solaren Aspekt des Gerätes stammen. Wie im Text, soist auch in den Anmerkungen und Exkursen eine erstaunliche Fülle an kunst- und kulturhistorischem Wissen ausgebreitet. Alles in allem bildet Hartlaubs umfassendes Werk ein Musterbeispiel einer streng phänomenologischen Untersuchung.

  • 1. Henri Evenepoel
    Henri Evenepoel en de beeldvorming van het moderne leven te Parijs in relatie tot de beeldvorming van Brussel door zijn Belgische tijdgenoten. Florence Corna Pellegrini Spandre Inleiding 1 1. Motivatie Om te beginnen moet ik mijn persoonlijk parcours aanhalen: ik heb drie jaar Bachelor in de Kunstgeschiedenis aan de Université Catholique de Louvain gevolgd en met succes beëindigd. Belangrijk te specificeren dat ik geen Bachelorthesis heb geschreven. Het systeem in het Franstalig onderwijs verschilt ten gevolge van de Bologna akkoorden: het bestaat uit drie jaar Bachelor, en daarna twee jaar Master, wat betekent dat de thesis enkel vanaf het eerste jaar Master wordt begonnen. Maar aangezien ik mijn opleiding in het Nederlands wilde beëindigen heb ik me voor de Master aan de Universiteit van Gent ingeschreven. Ik had dus nog geen thesisonderwerp toen ik met mijn Master in Gent ben begonnen. Toch wist ik vanaf mijn tweede jaar Bachelor waarover ik mijn scriptie wilde schrijven; ik had net een onderzoeksoefening moeten leiden over een zelfgekozen kunstwerk in het Museum voor Schone Kunsten van Brussel. Het werd de Kelder van de Soleil d’Or van Henri Evenepoel. Op dat ogenblik wist ik nog niets over hem of dat kunstwerk, en de reden waarom ik dat kunstwerk had uitgekozen, was natuurlijk eerst en vooral een esthetische aantrekkingskracht. Mijn sinds jaren bestaande voorkeur voor de kunst van het postimpressionisme en van Toulouse-Lautrec kan dit gemakkelijk uitleggen. Het is steeds mijn keuze geweest sinds ik in het secundair onderwijs een korte taak heb moeten schrijven over een oeuvre van die kunstenaar, La toilette.

Although the areas of Old Master drawings, early British drawings and watercolours, 19th Century and Modern drawings have long been regarded as disparate fields, part of the purpose of this annual catalogue is to blur the distinction between these collecting areas. The works we have selected for this catalogue will hopefully show that a fine drawing or watercolour – whoever the artist and whatever the date – is always worthy of note. As the enclosed price list shows, the prices of the drawings in this catalogue are equally broad in scope – from well under £1,000 to around £15,000 – with most of the works at the lower end of this range.

Stamped Oeuvre / Authentique / d’Henri Evenepoel / 1872-1899 on the verso. Also stamped PROVENANT / DE LA COLLECTION above L. van Mattemburgh [handwritten by Charles De Mey] on the verso. 660 x 425 mm. (26 x 16 3/4 in.) [sight] 690 x 450 mm. (27 1/8 x 17 1/2 in.) [sheet] Henri Evenepoel was fascinated by the life and people of Paris, and produced several paintings of crowded Parisian street scenes, figure types and genre subjects, in which the influence of artists like Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Jean-Louis Forain is readily evident. As he wrote in 1897 to his close friend Charles Didisheim, ‘People are for me blacks and greys or reds or greens against the background of a hazy city or in the chiaroscuro of a room...’ Always interested in the life of the Parisian streets, Evenepoel’s sympathetic attitude towards the working classes is seen in the comments he made to his father about a monumental painting of Labourers Returning from Work, completed in 1896 and today in the Musée Royal des Beaux-Arts in Antwerp: ‘I saw this at the Invalides and was tempted to do it. Still covered with dust and mud, they are returning in groups through the immense Esplanade and stride along toward their homes. With their ample trousers, their rough faces wrinkled by constant work, they are truly impressive.’ The present sheet belonged to Evenepoel’s cousin Louise van Mattemburgh (1869-1941), with whom the artist first lived when he arrived in Paris to study at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts.

We bieden een gevarieerd programma met tentoonstellingen van internationaal niveau. En plein air (In de open lucht), met het Louvre, Révolution bande dessinée (Revolutie stripverhalen), met het Fonds Hélène & Edouard Leclerc, 21 rue La Boétie (La Boétie-straat 21), rond de collectie Paul Rosenberg, Les Royaumes de la mer – Archipel (De koninkrijken van de zee – archipel), in het kader van Europalia Indonesia, Viva Roma !, opnieuw met het Louvre waren enkele van de hoogtepunten van deze eerste drie jaar. Veel andere evenementen zoals de Biennale internationale de Gravure (Internationale Biënnale van Hedendaagse Grafiek) en tentoonstellingen gewijd aan beroemde kunstenaars zoals Raoul Ubac, of gevestigde kunstenaars die zeer bekend zijn bij Luikenaren, zoals Daniel Fourneau en Fernand Flausch, zijn bij de activiteiten van het museum gekomen. Een museum is ook een plaats van het collectieve geheugen: zowel het verhaal van de industrieel John Cockerill, als dat van La leçon d’anatomie (Een les anatomie), een combinatie van kunst en geneeskunde rond de 30ste verjaardag van het CHU van Luik, horen thuis in een museum.
