Für ein jüdisches Mädchen aus gutbürgerlichem Haus ist ihre Biographie überraschend. Ihr Weg führte sie bis in die USA, wo sie seit 1924 lebte und 1945 in Hollywood starb. Eine allgemeine Bekanntschaft erlangte sie nicht, wohl aber die „Blaue Vier“, die sie gemein- sam mit vier anerkannten Künstlern des Weimarer Bauhauses gründete: Paul Klee, Wassily Kand- insky, Lyonel Feininger und Alexej von Jawlensky. Anfangs hatte Emilie Scheyer eigene künstlerische Ambitionen. Im Alter von 16 Jahren hatte sie Deutschland verlassen, um in England, Frankreich, Belgien und der Schweiz Malerei, Bildhauerei und Musik zu studieren. In der Schweiz lernte sie 1916 Jawlensky kennen und beschloss, nicht mehr selbst künstlerisch tätig zu sein, sondern ihre Energie der Vermittlung und dem Verkauf sei- ner Werke zu widmen. Mit der Gründung der Künstlergruppe „Blaue Vier“ im Jahre 1924 wurde sie zur offiziellen Kunsthändlerin der „vier blauen Könige“, wie sie selbst „ihre“ Künstler nannte. Sie organisierte zahlreiche Ausstellungen und Lichtbildvorträge, unternahm Reisen durch Europa, die USA und Asien. Mit einer internationalen Tagung wollen die Bet Tfila – Forschungsstelle für jüdische Architektur und das Städtische Museum Braunschweig in Kooperation mit der Stadt Braunschweig diese bedeutende Tochter der Stadt in den Blickpunkt nehmen. Trotz der großen Bedeutung der von ihr vertretenen Künstler in der Kunstgeschichte des frühen 20.

In California, through the troubling decades of the Great Depression and the Second World War, German- born Scheyer (1889–1945) single-handedly cultivated a taste for their brand of European modernism by arranging exhibitions, lectures and publications on their work, and negotiating sales on their behalf. Maven of Modernism presents exceptional examples from Scheyer’s personal collection by the Blue Four artists, as well as works by artists including Alexander Archipenko, László Moholy-Nagy, Pablo Picasso Head in Profile, 1919 Emil Nolde (German, 1867-1956) and Diego Rivera, which was given to the Pasadena Art Institute in the Watercolor and India ink on tan wove paper 14-1/2 x 11-1/8 in.

  • PICASSO Les Livres D’Artiste E T Tis R a D’ S Vre Li S Le PICASSO
    PICASSO LES LIVRES d’ARTISTE The collection of Mr. A*** collection ofThe Mr. d’artiste livres Les PICASSO PICASSO Les livres d’artiste The collection of Mr. A*** Author’s note Years ago, at the University of Washington, I had the opportunity to teach a class on the ”Late Picasso.” For a specialist in nineteenth-century art, this was a particularly exciting and daunting opportunity, and one that would prove formative to my thinking about art’s history. Picasso does not allow for temporalization the way many other artists do: his late works harken back to old masterpieces just as his early works are themselves masterpieces before their time, and the many years of his long career comprise a host of “periods” overlapping and quoting one another in a form of historico-cubist play that is particularly Picassian itself. Picasso’s ability to engage the art-historical canon in new and complex ways was in no small part influenced by his collaborative projects. It is thus with great joy that I return to the varied treasures that constitute the artist’s immense creative output, this time from the perspective of his livres d’artiste, works singularly able to point up his transcendence across time, media, and culture. It is a joy and a privilege to be able to work with such an incredible collection, and I am very grateful to Mr. A***, and to Umberto Pregliasco and Filippo Rotundo for the opportunity to contribute to this fascinating project. The writing of this catalogue is indebted to the work of Sebastian Goeppert, Herma Goeppert-Frank, and Patrick Cramer, whose Pablo Picasso.

ST. LOUIS PHILADELPHIA MUSEUM OF ART Paul Klee stated in 1902: "I want to do something very modest, to work out by myself a tiny formal motif, one that my pencil will be able to encompass without any technique..."'. Gradually he intensified his formal and expressive range, proceeding from the tested to the experimental, toward an ever deepening human awareness. Because of his intensive concentration upon each new beginning, categories fall by the wayside and efforts to divide Klee's work into stable groupings remain unconvincing. Even styl- istic continuities are elusive and not easily discernible. There is nothing in the develop- ment of his art that resembles, for example. Kandinsky's or Mondrian s evolution from a representational toward a non-objective mode. Nor is it possible to speak of "periods" in the sense in which this term has assumed validity with Picasso.
