  • 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.

PRESENTATION 2. EXHIBITION TOUR 3. EXHIBITION AREAS 4. EXTENDED LABELS ON WORKS 5. CHRONOLOGY 1. PRESENTATION This exhibition dedicated to Kees Van Dongen shows the artist‘s evolution from his student years to the peak of his career and evokes many of his aesthetic ties and exchanges with Picasso, with whom he temporarily shared the Bateau-Lavoir. Born in a suburb of Rotterdam, Van Dongen‘s career was spent mainly in Paris where he came to live in 1897. A hedonist and frequent traveller, he was a regular visitor to the seaside resorts of Deauville, Cannes and Monte Carlo, where he died in 1968. Van Dongen experienced poverty, during the years of revelry with Picasso, and then fame before finally falling out of fashion, a status he endured with a certain melancholy. The exhibition confirms Kees Van Dongen‘s decisive role in the great artistic upheavals of the early 20th century as a member of the Fauvist movement, in which he occupied the unique position of an often irreverent and acerbic portraitist. The virulence and extravagance of his canvases provoked immediate repercussions abroad, particularly within the Die Brücke German expressionist movement. Together with his orientalism, contemporary with that of Matisse, this places Van Dongen at the very forefront of the avant-garde.

  • Dalí, Picasso, Velázquez: Measuring up by ELLIOTT H
    ©Elliott H. King, 2015 Dalí, Picasso, Velázquez: Measuring Up By ELLIOTT H. KING “I’ve always said I’m a very bad painter because I’m too intelligent to be a good painter. To be a good painter, you’ve got to be a bit stupid, with the exception of Velázquez, who is a genius and whose talent surpasses the art of painting.” – Salvador Dalí[1] The year 1960 marked the 300th anniversary of the death of Spanish artist Diego Velázquez, in- citing a flurry of commemorative exhibitions, books, and other popular and scholarly studies around the globe.[2] The occasion could not have been overlooked by Spain’s two most promi- nent artists, Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dalí, each of whom executed his own reinterpretations of Velázquez’s paintings in the years directly preceding and following the tri-centennial. This essay considers these bodies of work, albeit in a somewhat round-about fashion. For Picasso, I will look, as a group, to the fifty-eight paintings he executed on the theme of Velázquez’s paint- ing Las Meninas (1656) in 1957, and for Dalí, to his handful of paintings and statements extoling Velázquez as a precursor to atomic physics and contemporary action painting, spearheaded by his 1958 canvas, Velázquez Painting the Infanta Margarita with the Lights and Shadows of His Own Glory. While I intend to compare and contrast the two artists’ approaches to Velázquez in the late-1950s and early-1960s, I have chosen a somewhat unorthodox framework to facilitate the question. Dali welcomed comparisons between his work and that of Picasso, whom he called the other great “genius” of Spain (in addition to himself).[3] Having reinvented himself as a “classic” painter in 1941, Dalí launched a barrage of defamatory statements and back-handed compliments against Picasso that pitted his own Renaissance-revival style against what he described in 1956 as Picasso’s “pure bestiality.”[4] From amongst Dalí’s myriad proclamations, I have located a rather fleeting one that strikes me as ranking amongst his most memorable and opaque.

  • Picasso, Mallarmé, Papier Collé
    The Hope of an Anonymous Art: Picasso, Mallarmé, Papier Collé Trevor Stark • Revoir Picasso’s symposium • March 25th, 2015 In February 1935, Georges Braque joined a chorus of mostly chauvinistic voices to submit a “Testimony Against Gertrude Stein” for a special supplement of the journal Transition, denouncing her Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas. In contrast to other contributors such as Tristan Tzara, who heaped misogy- nist insults about Stein’s “literary kitchen” and “literary pros- titution,” Braque objected to the “egocentric deformation” wrought by the ensnarement of Cubism within the (auto-)bio- graphical mode.1 While no doubt indignant at being classed by Stein as a mere “grenadier” to Pablo Picasso’s “Napoleon,” Braque nevertheless did not seek to assert his aesthetic parity with Picasso, but rather emphasized Cubism as a project to dissolve aesthetic subjectivity in itself: “In the early days of Cubism, Pablo Picasso and I were engaged in what we felt was a search for the anonymous personality. We were inclined to efface our own personalities in order to find originality.”2 In strikingly similar language, the other main players echoed this claim for Cubism as a collective effort to become anonymous. In his book Juan Gris, Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, 1. Pablo Picasso the Cubists’ first dealer and most important advocate, wrote Man with a Hat and a Violin that Cubism entailed “a deliberate gesture toward imperso- 1912 nal authorship, arising out of a conviction that the painter’s Cut and pasted newspaper, and ‘hand,’ his individual ‘handwriting,’ should not be visible in charcoal, on two joined sheets of paper, 124,5 x 47,9 cm 3 the finished product.” And, as Françoise Gilot recalls, Picasso Metropolitan Museum of Art explained Cubism in this way: “It was because we felt the temp- Jacques and Natasha Gelman Collection (1998.
