  • In Pursuit of Caravaggio
    IN PURSUIT OF CARAVAGGIO 21 November 2016 – 27 January 2017 38 Dover Street, W1S 4NL, London Robilant+Voena are pleased to present In Pursuit of Caravaggio at their London gallery from 21 November 2016 to 27 January 2017. Robilant+Voena is the premier international gallery for the Caravaggesque, paintings by the European artists who flocked to Rome around 1600 and fuelled an artistic revolution instigated by Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1573-1610). Timed to coincide with the National Gallery of Art’s exhibition Beyond Caravaggio, In Pursuit of Caravaggio is an exhibition which will display an exceptional group of Caravaggesque paintings as a vehicle to explore the profound way that art dealers have informed and influenced the reception of the controversial art of Caravaggio and his followers. The years proceeding Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio’s (1573-1610) arrival in Rome in the late summer of 1592 were transformative in the history of western art. Caravaggio landed in the Eternal City and both scandalised and delighted artistic patrons with his brutally naturalist style. His manner was revolutionary and stood counter to the classical idealism of traditional Roman painters. His influence was profound and he quickly garnered a following of both artists and patrons. So when Caravaggio, at the height of his fame, left Rome in 1606, his insistence not to take pupils or to run an organised workshop left no obvious successor to fill the extraordinary demand for commissions. But Rome was filled with artists who were inspired by Caravaggio’s methods. These artists adopted the tenets of Caravaggio’s art (a realistic depiction of figures, dramatic subject matter, and use of chiaroscuro, a high contrast of light to dark) and gave birth to one of the most expressive and beautiful artistic movements of all time.

  • Notice Biographique : French Painter and Draughtsman
    Musée des Beaux-arts de Nancy 274 L'Amour qui se venge Auteur Vouet Simon ; Nom : Vouet Prénom : Simon Lieu de naissance : Paris Date de naissance : 1590 Lieu de décès : Paris Date de décès : 1649 Notice biographique : French painter and draughtsman. Although at the time regarded as one of the leading French painters of the first half of the 17th century, he is now known more for his influence on French painting than for his actual oeuvre. He made his reputation in Italy, where he executed numerous portraits for aristocratic patrons and was commissioned for religious subjects. Although the early Italian works show the influence of Caravaggio, his work was subsequently modified by the Baroque style of such painters as Lanfranco and the influence of the Venetian use of light and colour. When he was summoned back to France by Louis XIII in 1627 he thus brought with him an Italian idiom hitherto unknown in France that revitalized French painting (see France, §III, 3). His style became highly popular among Parisian aristocrats who saw in Vouet a painter capable of decorating their hôtels and châteaux in a manner that would rival the palazzi of their Italian counterparts. He quickly established a large workshop through which passed many of the leading French painters of the mid-17th century. There followed numerous commissions for allegorical works, religious subjects and decorative paintings for royal residences and the burgeoning hôtels and châteaux in and around Paris. The schemes introduced a new type of illusionistic decoration with steep perspective that influenced a generation of decorative painters.

Every academy was asked to select indepen- dently three graduated masters printmaking of the year 2017. The nominees could participate with three works each. We created a catalogue in which every academy has an introduc- tory page, which is followed by the works, submitted by their for- mer students. Not all academies nominated three masters though. Parallel to the Masters Printmaking event, it is our intention to yearly introduce the graphic work of the teaching staff from one of the participating academies. This year we are showing the works of the printmaking staff of the Académie Royale de Bruxelles. A part of the catalogue edition is a bibliophilic edition.

A broken bench is thrown against the wall. A foot-stove provides heat. A jug is in the niche of the window. The floor is patched with wood. The interior of this room is run-down. Yet they are thanking the Lord for what they have, it is a gift from God. Bega was a Dutch Golden Age painter and engraver, his father being a sculptor and gold- smith and his mother the daughter of a Dutch painter. Similar to this painting, he produced many scenes of peasant figures, often in interior settings. With a group of fellow painters, he traveled by horse and boat on a Grand Tour through Germany, Switzerland, and France in 1653 and 1654. One of his compatriots kept a diary, which gives a good description of the art in the cities they visited.

The objects so gathered would exist whether or not brought together in one ownership. Such a collection may reflect the vanity of the collector, or it may, hopefully, reflect an intellectual curiosity which can to some extent be satiated by the juxtaposition of period, style, subject, medium, artist or creator. This fulfils a subjective desire to learn and appreciate in the comfort and accessibility of one’s own possessions, rather than within the public domain.
