  • New Realisms
    New Realisms Simple exhaustion from the numerous formulas of abstract painting and the new consumer society spreading across Western Europe gave rise to a series of proposals about a return to “the real”. The object, movement, the performative, the event and occupation of the public sphere became the new focuses of European artists who, all initially connected under the label Nouveau Réalisme, soon began to expand into a number of concepts that lit the fuse of the explosion of the 1960s and 70s. eruption of “the real” in the arts preda- tes this, and is like a rhizome of concepts outside the program, from the work of the affichistes and décollagistes (Jacques Vi- lleglé (1926), Raymond Hains (1926) and François Dufrêne (1930-1982) to Yves Klein’s monochromes, via Jean Tinguely’s machines. As far as Pierre Restany was concerned, easel painting was over. The new artists, considering “the world as a painting”, freed Around 1957, a series of transformations in Europe together brought about a change the work from the constrictions of the in the paradigm of the arts. The communist party’s disenchantment with the Soviet frame. The works were connected to the Union model, along with the United States’ diplomatic, military and economic invasion Dada and surrealist poetics of the found of the old world, gave rise to a consumer society and market economy that would fill object, but added an aspect of real life; the vacuum left by pre-war ideologies and utopias and the post-war existentialism and what stands out is not the aura of the fe- alienation.

Aldershot and Burlington: Ashgate Publishing, 2010. xii + 184 pp. B&w illustrations, facsimilies, plan, bibliography and index. $104.95 U.S. (hb). ISBN 978-0-7546-6141-2 Review by Sarah Wilson, Courtauld Institute of Art This is a fascinating book: the first critical exposé in English of French critic Pierre Restany’s Nouveau réalisme movement, baptised in 1960, which ran parallel to American Pop but was ambivalent about Americanisation, a highly political issue. It was only in 2007 that a major exhibition at the Grand Palais did justice to the group as a whole, following a retrospective at the Musée de la Ville de Paris in 1986; the Centre Pompidou has recently staged a series of superb monographic shows of Nouveau Réaliste artists: Yves Klein, Jacques Villeglé and Arman. Like Pop, this movement broke from traditional School of Paris painting or sculpture which kept to traditional materials and modernist aesthetics of representation and abstraction. It introduced what Restany called la prise sociologique du réel: a ‘sociological’ engagement with real life into art, in the living presence of Marcel Duchamp, dada inventor of the ‘readymade’ before the First World War. Restany’s show ‘40 degrees above Dada’ of May 1961 acknowledges this paternity. To visual art one can add the new emphasis on ‘things’ in the French novel or the writings of Georges Perec, and the theoretical emphasis of ‘everyday life’ in Henri Lefebvre or the young Pierre Bourdieu; a heady ambient discourse that distinguishes Nouveau Réalisme from the pragmatic relations with objects of contemporary American artists such as Robert Rauschenburg.

OWNREALITY ( ), D. LAKS Arman, Spoerri, Hains and Villeglé: Memory Through the Prism of Objects Déborah Laks The work of the nouveaux réalistes was long viewed as the enthusias - tic adhesion of a group of artists to a period characterized by the joy of a newfound abundance, consumption and the rapid transformation of the “decor of daily life”. This reading, defended by Pierre Restany him - self, was reinforced by a comparison to pop art and by the idea – for - mulated by the situationnists but widely accepted – that “with Nouveau Réalisme, the political right finally found its art.” It also drew on the suc - cess of works whose disturbing or provocative aspects were kept at an acceptable level by the use of humor or distancing devices. This is the case with Arman’s Poubelles organiques , all the less repugnant as the Plexiglas constitutes an absolute hygienic barrier; with Hains and Villeglé’s lace - rated posters which, once remounted on canvas, have more to say about the history of collage and painting than about the walls they came from; Tinguely’s sculptures, whose humor attenuates their darkness; Spoerri’s tableaux-pièges [snare-pictures ], in which time, pinned like a dead butter - fly, refers to the triviality of a meal’s relief.

  • The Body in Art
    THE BODY IN ART MEDIATION FORM INTRODUCTION First subjected to aesthetic canons, the represented body gradually freed itself from classical values. The modern era marks a challenge to the ideal of beauty, even freeing itself from representation. From then on, the body was distorted, dislocated, stylized, transformed, shaking up the pictorial and sculptural representation of the 20th century. Beyond the representation itself, the body becomes a tool, a trace and an imprint, the artist puts his own body into play. This visit through the works in the permanent collection allows us to follow the changes in this major subject of 20th century art. Duration of the tour • Primary School 1H • Middle School 1H • High School / College 1H Objectives • To discover the different representations of the human body • Discover color as a component of the 2 artwork • Learn to understand an artwork • Familiarization with the specific vocabulary of art A STEPSA OF THE VISIT Based on this information, the teacher will have to make a choice of steps according to the level of the class and the availability of the artworks in the room. The stages can be adjusted at the convenience of the teachers. The arrival preparation form must be completed. Step 1: Representation of the body Step 2: emancipation of the body Step 3: the body at work B RELATEDA KNOWLEDGE A STEPSA OF THE VISIT STEP 1: REPRESENTATION OF THE BODY With modernity, artists are trying to shake up the traditional codes of representation of the body. Attacking figurative codes, beauty, proportion and ideas of likelihood, the artists propose a completely different range of images based on industrial and modern production techniques.

It was intended as a way of promoting France’s interests on the global art scene and its main difference with other such events had to do with its emphasis on the emerging artists. The first editions of the Biennale were organized by Raymond Cogniat and Jacques Lassaigne who were both civil servants and whose career had started at a time when Paris’ role was supposed to be central in the art world.

  • PRESS RELEASE Poetry of the Metropolis the Affichistes
    PRESS Basel, October 2014 RELEASE Poetry of the Metropolis The Affichistes Museum Tinguely, Basel: 22 October 2014 – 11 January 2015 One of the most radical and simultaneously most poetic approaches to reality was made from 1950 onwards by the “Affichistes”: Francois Dufrêne, Raymond Hains, and Jacques Villeglé belonged, like Jean Tinguely, to the “Nouveaux Réalistes” group. Their creative work fitted in with that of the like-minded Mimmo Rotella and Wolf Vostell. The exhibition “Poetry of the Metropolis. The Affichistes” jointly devised by Museum Tinguely and Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt has as its theme an artistic current which, outside of France, in Switzerland and Germany too, has been largely disregarded up to now. The Affichistes are now compre- hensively on show in Switzerland for the first time ever. The exhibition is arranged in the form of a trail, which Mimmo Rotella, Per l'insalata, 1961 presents the urban space as a place of varied inspiration Collezione Peruz Milano © 2014 ProLitteris, Zurich for strolling flâneurs and creates locations for encoun- tering the radical inventions of these five artists; be they décollages, or filmic, photo- graphic, or even poetical experiments. Dufrêne, Hains, and Villeglé, later Rotella too, came together with Arman, Yves Klein, Martial Raysse, Daniel Spoerri, and Jean Tinguely to form the “Nouveaux Réalistes”, founded by means of manifesto by Pierre Restany in 1960. Although the artistic field that revolves around the smallest common denominator, the “nouvelles approches perceptives du reel”, is thus marked out, in the Affichistes’ case this classification does not take account of the fact that, already in 1950 or thereabouts, they were important trailblazers for a new thinking that prepared the broader field of artistic acting and creating in around 1960.

  • Press Release
    MODERN ART Press Release Nikolas Gambaroff Raymond Hains Jacques Villeglé 25 February – 9 April, 2011 Private view 24 February, 6-8pm Stuart Shave/Modern Art is pleased to announce an exhibition of works by Nikolas Gambaroff, Raymond Hains and Jacques Villeglé. The exhibition brings examples of Nikolas Gambaroff's new work together in the suggestion of a conversation with related art historical antecedents. The use of materiality in all these artists’ work – the literal ripping and tearing associated with décollage – deals with the collection, division and conflict of visual information. Jacques Villeglé was born in France in 1926. Since the late 1940s, Villeglé has worked to produce a substantial and singular body of work from found layers of ripped street posters. Doing little more than selecting and mounting them on canvas as paintings, Villeglé identifies compositions that reveal a conditioned way of seeing and a critical eye brought to bear upon the tasks of isolating both beauty and socio-political affect in the disorder of everyday urban life. Villeglé is widely considered a figure at the forefront of the twentieth century European avant-garde, whose work pioneered radical approaches to appropriative art making. Raymond Hains was born in France in 1926, and died in 2005. Hains met Villeglé in the mid-1940s, and together they developed décollages made from found, torn street posters. Working together in the 1950s Hains and Villeglé gave themselves the label of ‘affichistes’, before becoming associated with the Lettrist and Ultra-Lettrist movements, and later counting among the founders of Nouveau Réalisme. In the mid 1960s Hains chose to distance himself from the Nouveau Réalistes, and unlike Villeglé, sought to continually reinvent his practice throughout the course of his life.

    LOST LOOSE AND LOVED FOREIGN ARTISTS IN PARIS 1944-1968 The exhibition Lost, Loose, and Loved: Foreign Artists in Paris, 1944–1968 concludes the year 2018 at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía with a broad investigation of the varied Parisian art scene in the decades after World War II. The exhibition focuses on the complex situation in France, which was striving to recuperate its cultural hegemony and recompose its national identity and influence in the newly emerging postwar geopolitical order of competing blocs. It also places a particular focus on the work of foreign artists who were drawn to the city and contributed to creating a stimulating, productive climate in which intense discussion and multiple proposals prevailed. Cultural production in a diverse, continuously transforming postwar Paris has often been crowded out by the New York art world, owing both to a skillful exercise of American propaganda that had spellbound much of the criticism, market, and institutions, as well as later to the work of canonical art history with its celebration of great names and specific moments. Dismissed as secondary, minor, or derivative, art practices in those years, such as those of the German artist Wols, the Dutch artist Bram van Velde, or the Portuguese artist Maria Helena Vieira da Silva, to name just a few, lacked the single cohesive image that the New York School offered with Abstract Impressionism and its standard bearer, Jackson Pollock. In contrast, in Paris there existed a multitude of artistic languages and positions coexisting

Sale, Cornette de St Cyr, Brussels, 3 December 2017, lot 113 Private Collection Exhibited Paris, Galerie Max Hetzler, Raymond Hains: Saffa | Seita, September – October 2018 RAYMOND HAINS 1926 – 2005 lived and worked in Paris, France “The continuous act of shifting, drifting and inflecting through different spaces, images, words and signification is perhaps where Hains retains his extraordinary relevance, not only to current art production but also to the slippery malleability and ever-changing nature of our contemporary environment.” 1 Hans Ulrich Obrist Saffa, 1971, belongs to Raymond Hains’ seminal matches series. A primary example of a wall- mounted matchbook, it encapsulates the Pop Art aesthetic and minimalist qualities of this iconic body of work, examples of which were exhibited at documenta IV, Kassel in 1984 and are represented in major international collections including MoMA, New York; Musée national d’Art Moderne, Centre Pompidou, Paris; MAMAC, Nice; Museu Coleção Berardo, Lisbon; Moderna Museet, Stockholm; Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth and Museum Ludwig, Cologne. A central figure in post-war French art, Raymond Hains developed an artistic universe that playfully borrows from the real world and explores the visual and metaphoric possibilities of linguistic frameworks. Together with Yves Klein, Jean Tinguely and Jean Villeglé, Hains was a founding member of Nouveau Réalisme, the French counterpart to Pop Art established in 1960.
