  • Masterpiece: Monet Painting in His Garden, 1913 by Pierre Auguste Renoir
    Masterpiece: Monet Painting in His Garden, 1913 by Pierre Auguste Renoir Pronounced: REN WAUR Keywords: Impressionism, Open Air Painting Grade: 3rd Grade Month: November Activity: “Plein Air” Pastel Painting TIME: 1 - 1.25 hours Overview of the Impressionism Art Movement: Impressionism was a style of painting that became popular over 100 years ago mainly in France. Up to this point in the art world, artists painted people and scenery in a realistic manner. A famous 1872 painting by Claude Monet named “Impression: Sunrise ” was the inspiration for the name given to this new form of painting: “Impressionism” (See painting below) by an art critic. Originally the term was meant as an insult, but Monet embraced the name. The art institutes of the day thought that the paintings looked unfinished, or childlike. Characteristics of Impressionist paintings include: visible brush strokes, open composition, light depicting the effects of the passage of time, ordinary subject matter, movement, and unusual visual angles. As a technique, impressionists used dabs of paint (often straight out of a paint tube) to recreate the impression they saw of the light and the effects the light had on color. Due to this, most Impressionistic artists painted in the “plein-air”, French for open air. The important concept for 3 rd grade lessons is the Impressionism movement was short lived but inspired other artists from all over, including America, to begin using this new technique. Each of the artists throughout the lessons brought something new and a little different to advance the Impressionistic years. (i.e. Seurat with Neo-Impressionism and Toulouse-Lautrec with Post-Impressionism).

  • The Library of Professor Eric G. Carlson
    The Library of Professor Eric G. Carlson Part II: Rare Illustrated Books and Print Portfolios, ca. 1850-1930 405 titles, in ca. 585 physical volumes The Library of Professor Eric G. Carlson Part I: Art of France from the French Revolution to the End of the Third Republic, 1790-1940. General Reference Works and Monographs on Artists, with a special emphasis on prints and printmaking The art historian and art dealer Eric G. Carlson (1940-2016) was a noted specialist in French and American prints and drawings of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A mediaevalist by training (Ph.D. Yale University), and professor at the State University of New York at Purchase from 1978 to 2006, Carlson brought a scholar's acumen to his exploration of lesser-known fields and figures of French art. His library reflects this, being exceptionally rich not just on the major artists of the era, but on the many painters and printmakers who remain to this day little known to the general public. Its coverage of the art of Romanticism, Realism, and Post-Impressionism, with very impressive concentrations on Géricault, Delacroix, Courbet, Degas and Gauguin, among others, is matched by a fascinating depth in the Symbolist and Nabi movements and the School of Pont-Aven, and the myriad Academic and Salon artists, illustrators and caricaturists who flourished between the start of the Second Empire and the end of the Third Republic. The library is unusually complete and sophisticated in the documentation and critical study of all aspects of the period, with rare exhibition and auction catalogues, and scarce early monographs, as well as the latest academic scholarship.

THRee InvestiGatiOns OF CReativitY: ART, Science anD MeDia CREATIVE TRANSFORMATIONS IN VISUAL ARTS OF EARLY FRENCH MODERNISM: TREATMENT OF NUDE BODY Agnieška JUZEFOVIČ Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Faculty of Creative Industries, Department of Philosophy and Communication Trakų g. 1, LT-01132, Vilnius, Lithuania E-mails: [email protected]; [email protected] Received 22 May 2015; accepted 22 October 2015 Resent paper is focused on the early modern culture, particularly on the topic of visual art and its confrontation with traditional, pre-modern culture and aes- thetic. The author unveils how and why painters of early French modernism had rejected traditional representation of eroticism, typical for pre-modern art, espe- cially for the art of academicism. Thus from their artworks disappeared sublim- ated, exalted nudity, withdrew nudes modestly hidden under mythological or reli- gious context. In the works of impressionists and postimpressionists naked body was depicted frankly, openly, without any excuse of what was supposed to be decent. Such were the nude women of paintings of Auguste Manet and Amedeo Modigliani who present merely their femininity and sexuality, while symbolizing the liberation from moral norms and heralding sexual revolution of the 20th cen- tury. Relaxed, healthy, pink-cheeked girls in Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s paintings spread subtle eroticism and the mood of joyful life. Life of Parisian cabarets and brothels come alive through naked or semi-naked female figures which on Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Edgar Degas canvases seem as if they are unaware of being watched.

  • Toulouse-Lautrec and Anti-Semitism in Fin-De-Siècle Paris
    Toulouse-Lautrec and anti-Semitism in fin-de-siècle Paris Essay by Louis Dzialo In 1892, a salacious dime-novel hit the shelves in Paris. Victor Joze’s Reine de joie, moeurs du demi-monde (Queen of Joy, The World of Easy Virtue) tells the story of Alice Lamy, an enterprising Parisian courtesan, and her depraved relationship with a fictitious Jewish financier, Baron de Rozenfeld. Toulouse-Lautrec’s poster that advertised the novel depicts the novel’s moment of high-comedy. Prior to this scene, Baron de Rozenfeld has struck a deal to engage in an illicit relationship with Alice for a tremendous sum of money, plus a fully furnished townhouse in the fashionable Bois du Boulogne. Upon realizing what the Baron has offered her “[Alice] rises suddenly, embraces the Baron with her bare arms, and as her lips slide towards the old man’s mouth, she encounters an obstacle in the form of his large hooked Semitic nose and there she plants her kiss.”1 Though Toulouse-Lautrec’s poster advertising Reine de Joie (Figure 1) remains true to elements of this scene, it is not without the artist’s own creative embellishments. Joze describes Rozenfeld as “an aging Semitic type…an impassive figure of a man who knows his power.”2 Toulouse-Lautrec alters the Baron, depicting a “a short, overweight, sunken figure of a man who indulges in what money can buy and whose own passive body language does not suggest a consciousness of his own power.”3 His Baron is a grotesque blob of a man, his sordid character reiterated in Lautrec’s (ambiguous) suggestion that he gropes Alice’s breast with his right hand.

  • The ART of Wine
    The ART of Wine VINUM VINE “ Drink wine and tomorrow we will wake, Drink love and we shall be drunk forever... ” T had my first taste of wine at 6 p.m. a couple years ago; during an Organic Chemistry II lecture (held in one of the largest University lecture halls in America (200 + seats)). I I sip wine, while knowing the consequence and taboos of in-class alcohol consumption. It was an Italian 187 mL imported Merlot Cavit Collection, screw capped; which was enjoyed with six French’s cinnamon raisin cookies. While enjoying, I was learning about aromatic compounds and carbon cation. On May 25, 2010: I have decided to publish my story. This book is not about wine; it’s about what you can do with the idea. Cheers, and enjoy!
