  • Modigliani's Recipe: Sex, Drugs and Long, Long Necks
    The New York Times, August 3, 2003 Modigliani's Recipe: Sex, Drugs and Long, Long Necks By PETER PLAGENS VINCENT VAN GOGH had a 10-year working life that can hardly be called a "career," and yet he's just about the biggest draw ever in museum exhibitions, at least per square inch of canvas covered. When the 1998 "Van Gogh's van Goghs" exhibition entered the home stretch of its run at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, officials had to keep the place open 24 hours a day on the last weekend to accommodate the crowds. Amedeo Modigliani O.K., that's van Gogh. But since June 26, visitors have been streaming into the same museum at the rate of more than 1,400 a day (which a spokesperson calls "astounding" for them) to see the work of a different painter with an equally brief working life. The attraction, which originated at the Albright-Knox Gallery in Buffalo (where the museum had to turn away visitors during the last two weeks) and then stopped at the Kimbell Museum in Fort Worth, is an exhibition called "Modigliani and the Artists of Montparnasse." (It runs through Sept. 28.) Although the show includes healthy doses of Chagall, Soutine and Rivera (among others), the benighted Amedeo Modigliani (1884- 1920) is the real draw. What is it about this artist, who painted deceptively simple, semi-abstracted, sloe-eyed women over and over again, that pleases the public so much? It could be at least partly the biography. Modigliani was born an outsider — his parents were Sephardic Jews in Livorno, Italy — and grew up sickly and tubercular.

  • ART HISTORY REVEALED Dr
    ART HISTORY REVEALED Dr. Laurence Shafe This course is an eclectic wander through art history. It consists of twenty two-hour talks starting in September 2018 and the topics are largely taken from exhibitions held in London during 2018. The aim is not to provide a guide to the exhibition but to use it as a starting point to discuss the topics raised and to show the major art works. An exhibition often contains 100 to 200 art works but in each two-hour talk I will focus on the 20 to 30 major works and I will often add works not shown in the exhibition to illustrate a point. References and Copyright • The talks are given to a small group of people and all the proceeds, after the cost of the hall is deducted, are given to charity. • The notes are based on information found on the public websites of Wikipedia, Tate, National Gallery, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Khan Academy and the Art Story. • If a talk uses information from specific books, websites or articles these are referenced at the beginning of each talk and in the ‘References’ section of the relevant page.

This Italian born artist spent most of his life in Paris meeting artists like Pablo Picasso, immersing himself in art, and developing his own style of portraiture. Unfortunately, Modigliani- who had always been in poor health- was also attracted to the excesses of Parisian nightlife. He died at a relatively young age, his tuberculosis complicated by alcoholism.

    'WE the Moderns' Teachers' Pack Kettle's Yard, 2007 WE the moderns: Gaudier and the birth of modern sculpture 20 January - 18 March 2007 Information for teachers • What is the exhibition about? 2 • Key themes 3 • Who was Gaudier? 4 • Gaudier quotes 5 • Points of discussion 6 • Activity sheets 7-11 • Brief biography of the artists 12-18 1 'WE the Moderns' Teachers' Pack Kettle's Yard, 2007 What is the exhibition about? "WE the moderns: Gaudier-Brzeska and the birth of modern sculpture", explores the work of the French sculptor in relation to the wider continental context against which it matured. In 1911, aged 19, Gaudier moved to London. There he was to spend the rest of his remarkably concentrated career, which was tragically cut short by his death in the trenches four years later. These circumstances have granted the sculptor a rather ambiguous position in the history of art, with the emphasis generally falling on his bohemian lifestyle and tragic fate rather than on his artistic achievements, and then on his British context. The exhibition offers a fresh insight into Gaudier's art by mapping its development through a selection of works (ranging from sculptures and preparatory sketches to paintings, drawings from life, posters and archival material) aimed at highlighting not only the influences that shaped it but also striking affinities with contemporary and later work which reveal the artist's modernity. At the core of the exhibition is a strong representation of Gaudier's own work, which is shown alongside that of his contemporaries to explore themes such as primitivism, artists' engagement with the philosophy of Bergson, the rendition of movement and dynamism in sculpture, the investigation into a new use of space through relief and construction by planes, and direct carving.

In 1906, at the age of 21, he moved to Paris. Many factors shaped his decision. Born in the port city of Livorno, he belonged to an educated family of Sephardic Jews (descended from Spain and Portugal), who encouraged his ambition and exposed him to languages and literature. He had seen great Renaissance art and had trained as a painter. But Paris offered excitement. Paris offered variety. There he would encounter ways of thinking, seeing and behaving that challenged and shaped his work. This exhibition opens with a self-portrait, painted around 1915, in which Modigliani presents himself as the tragic clown Pierrot. His contemporaries would have recognised the reference instantly as, at the time, the figure appeared in countless pictures, plays and films. A young person shaping their identity could relate to Pierrot, a stock character open to interpretation, linked to the past and looking towards the future. Pierrot could be comedic, melancholy or romantic, played by any actor or painted by any artist.
