The Application of Art Historical Methodologies to the Study of Paul Cézanne in the 19 ABSTRACT Title of Document: PAUL CÉZANNE AND THE MAKING OF MODERN ART HISTORY Jorgelina Orfila, Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Directed By: Professor June E. Hargrove Department of Art History and Archaeology The application of art historical methodologies to the study of Paul Cézanne in the 1930s brought about significant changes in the way the artist’s art and biography were understood. Art history was institutionalized as an international academic discipline under the pressure of the ideological struggle that preceded the Second World War. This process promoted the incorporation of modern art as part of the disciplinary field. The use of categories of analysis developed for the examination of historical manifestations helped to assimilate modern art into a narrative that extolled the continuity of the Western tradition. This dissertation examines the writings and careers of art historians who published books on Cézanne in 1936 in Paris: Lionello Venturi, the first catalogue raisonné of the work of the artist, Cézanne, son art, son oeuvre; René Huyghe, a monograph, Cézanne; and John Rewald, Cézanne et Zola, which became the accepted biography of the artist. In addition, Rewald’s photographs of the sites Cézanne painted were instrumental in introducing space (as perspective) as a category for the analysis of the artist’s landscapes, thus helping to establish its link to the Western tradition. The site photographs epitomize the new approach to documentation and the changes in museography that accompanied the transformation of art history. The arrival of émigré art historians to the United States favored the identification of the hegemonic art historical discourse with an anti-totalitarian ideology. Alfred H. Barr Jr., the director of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, organized in 1936 Cubism and Abstract Art. The exhibition, which established Cézanne as a key figure in the development of modern art, associated modern art with the fight against Fascism. This dissertation studies a previously ignored period of the history of the institutionalization of art history and provides arguments for the debate on the epistemological foundations of the discipline and its relationship with museography and art criticism. By questioning these foundations, the dissertation disentangles Cézanne’s work from the ideological constructs that were affixed to his art by the interpretations proposed in the 1930s and suggests new avenues for understanding it.

The confidence the faculty of the Department demonstrated in my project gave me the strength to carry it on. I could never praise enough how fortunate I was to have Professor June Hargrove as my advisor. Her academic guidance, professional mentoring, and trust in me never wavered during my years at the University of Maryland. She not only interceded on my behalf in countless opportunities but also helped me in every single aspect of the process of writing this dissertation. Also, it would be very difficult to find more supportive and generous teachers than Professors Sally Promey and William Pressly. I sincerely thank Professors Joshua Shannon and Brian Richardson for agreeing to be part of my dissertation committee and for their helpful comments. Ania Waller, the department’s Director of Finance, and Deborah Down, the Graduate Secretary, have helped me with administrative details so that I could maintain focus on teaching and writing. Kathy Canavan, the Graduate Secretary when I entered the program, helped me not only as member of the staff but also as a friend. Her sudden death in the fall of 2004 still saddens us all. In the International Students Services my thanks to Jody Heckman-Bose whose reassurances and expeditiousness helped me to navigate the hazardous waters of the F1 visa status. How I reached the University of Maryland has its own story and implies a list of people to thank for their trust in my project. I came to the United States on a iii Lampadia Fellowship to work at the department of French Paintings, National Gallery of Art. In Buenos Aires, Américo Castilla from the Antorchas Foundation helped me immensely. Faya Causey was then head of academic programs at NGA. Her unflagging enthusiasm, support, and friendship still inspire me. Philip Conisbee led me to consider the evaluation of nineteenth-century art in the 1930s when he gave me as a subject of study the Chester Dale collection. His guidance was fundamental in the early stages of this project. At the Archives of the Gallery, where I worked on the Chester Dale Papers and the John Rewald Papers, I found not merely a lovely workplace but the friendship and support of Maygene Daniels and her family. My warmest thanks go to Anne and Don Ritchie, whose love helped me in the darkest moments. English is not my first language, and I am immensely indebted to my American friends for correcting my writing, most especially to Dena Crosson and Kristen Regina. Their friendship helped me to finish the manuscript. Jonathan Walz also collaborated in the delicate task of correcting my faults while encouraging my efforts. My long time friends María Isabel Heredia and Susana Smulevici have been always by my side. Together with my family they helped me to understand what Marcos Aguinis has characterized as “el atroz encanto de ser argentino” (the appalling allure of being Argentine). My parents, Marta Elena Roumiguière and Jorge R. Orfila, were my moral compass and orientation. My sister’s love has been a source of inspiration throughout these years. With unwavering humor María Belén reminds me of our origins and of what it means to have been born in a country like Argentina. iv My worldview was shaped by the experience of living in Argentina during the chaotic 1970s and 1980s. I am thankful to those who helped me to understand those events and even to gain a certain wisdom from them. I am also thankful to those who encouraged me to keep my perspective and to write about nineteenth-century art history from that vantage point. I hope it is useful to others. v Table of Contents Acknowledgements......................................................................................................iii Table of Contents......................................................................................................... vi List of Figures............................................................................................................viii Introduction................................................................................................................... 1 The Rappel à l’ordre in the 1930s: A New Humanism............................................ 6 Setting the Stage: The Documentation and Cézanne’s Early Critical Fortune......... 9 The Institutionalization of Art History as an Academic International Discipline in the 1930s ................................................................................................................. 16 The History of Modern Art History........................................................................ 28 Methodological Notes : Ideology, Museography and Hegemony .......................... 38 Section One................................................................................................................. 48 Chapter One: Towards a Modern [Humanist] Art History 1929-1939....................... 59 The History of the History of Art ........................................................................... 61 Panofsky and the Neo-Kantian Turn....................................................................... 70 1929 to 1939: From Davos to America.................................................................. 75 Art History as a Humanistic Discipline.

More impor- tantly, the artist himself favored a formalist interpretation since the late 1930s, which has all but precluded historical approaches to his work except for a few notable exceptions.2 The critic Cesare Brandi, who inaugurated the formalist discourse on Morandi, wrote in 1939 that “nothing is less abstract, less uproot- ed from the world, less indifferent to pain, less deaf to joy than this painting, which apparently retreats to the margins of life and interests itself, withdrawn, in dusty kitchen cupboards.”3 In order to further remove Morandi from the 1.

  • Sarfatti and Venturi, Two Italian Art Critics in the Threads of Modern Argentinian Art
    MODERNIDADE LATINA Os Italianos e os Centros do Modernismo Latino-americano Sarfatti and Venturi, Two Italian Art Critics in the Threads of Modern Argentinian Art Cristina Rossi Introduction Margherita Sarfatti and Lionello Venturi were two Italian critics who had an important role in the Argentinian art context by mid-20th Century. Venturi was only two years younger than Sarfatti and both died in 1961. In Italy, both of them promoted groups of modern artists, even though their aesthetic poetics were divergent, such as their opinions towards the official Mussolini´s politics. Our job will seek to redraw their action within the tension of the artistic field regarding the notion proposed by Pierre Bourdieu, i.e., taking into consider- ation the complex structure as a system of relations in a permanent state of dispute1. However, this paper will not review the performance of Sarfatti and Venturi towards the cultural policies in Italy, but its proposal is to reintegrate their figures – and their aesthetical and political positions – within the interplay of forces in the Argentinian rich cultural fabric, bearing in mind the strategies that were implemented by the local agents with those who they interacted with. Sarfatti and Venturi in Mussolini´s political environment Born into a Jewish Venetian family in 1883, Margherita Grassini got married to the lawyer Cesare Sarfatti and in 1909 moved to Milan, where she started her career as an art critic. Convinced that Milan could achieve a central role in the Italian culture – together with the Jewish gallerist Lino Pesaro – in 1922 Sarfatti promoted the group Novecento.

The background to the debate is the anti-militarist and anti-dynastic uprising which occurred in Italy in June 1914 (La Settimana Rossa) in which Malatesta was a key actor. But with the events of July and August 1914, the alliance of socialists, republicans, syndicalists and anarchists was rent asunder in Italy as elements of this coalition supported intervention on the side of the Entente and the disavowal of Italy’s treaty obligations under the Triple Alliance. Malatesta’s dispute with Kropotkin provides a focus for the anti-interventionist campaigns he fought internationally, in London and in Italy.1 This chapter will conclude by examining Malatesta’s discussions of the unintended outcomes of world war and the challenges and opportunities that the fracturing of the antebellum world posed for the international anarchist movement.

  • The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain
    Crossing the Channel: The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain By Catherine Cheney Senior Honors Thesis Department of Art History University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 8, 2016 Approved: 1 Introduction: French Impressionism in England As Impressionism spread throughout Europe in the late nineteenth century, the movement took hold in the British art community and helped to change the fundamental ways in which people viewed and collected art. Impressionism made its debut in London in 1870 when Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, and Paul Durand-Ruel sought safe haven in London during the Franco- Prussian war. The two artists created works of London landscapes done in the new Impressionist style. Paul Durand-Ruel, a commercial dealer, marketed the Impressionist works of these two artists and of the other Impressionist artists that he brought over from Paris. The movement was officially organized for the First Impressionist Exhibition in 1874 in Paris, but the initial introduction in London laid the groundwork for promoting this new style throughout the international art world. This thesis will explore, first, the cultural transformations of London that allowed for the introduction of Impressionism as a new style in England; second, the now- famous Thames series that Monet created in the 1890s and notable exhibitions held in London during the time; and finally, the impact Impressionism had on private collectors and adding Impressionist works to the national collections. With the exception of Edouard Manet, who met with success at the Salon in Paris over the years and did not exhibit with the Impressionists, the modern artists were not received well.
