Le Petit Château : une œuvre singulière de Jean Bullant pour le connétable de France, Anne de Montmorency, qui s’inscrit avec autorité dans le courant maniériste des années 1550-1557. De 1723 à 1726, Jean Aubert, l’architecte du Régent, réalise pour Louis IV Henri de Bourbon-Condé (1692- 1740), dit « Monsieur Le Duc », les magnifiques Grandes Écuries, chef d’oeuvre de l’architecture régence. Le Château-Neuf (1876-1882) construit pour le Duc d’Aumale par l'architecte Honoré Daumet. De retour d’Angleterre, le duc entreprit ces travaux afin d’abriter ses collections de livres précieux (dont les Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry) et de tableaux, maintenant présentées dans le « Musée Condé » que nous visiterons pour y admirer les œuvres de Fra Angelico, Raphaël, Nicolas Poussin, Antoine Watteau.

VRB LOISIRS -RCS MENDE - IM012130009 Visite du parc, ludique et commentée, en petit train. Les jardins : éloigné de la cour, Louis II de Bourbon-Condé, dit le Grand Condé, consacre tous ses soins à son domaine de Chantilly à partir de 1659 : il fait réaliser le parc par André Le Nôtre lequel n'a pas encore travaillé à Versailles. Le Nôtre canalise La Nonette pour créer « Le Grand Canal » (1671-73), dessine les parterres français au Nord du château, fait construire par Daniel Gittard "Le Grand Degré", et crée la perspective actuelle allant de la grille d'honneur à la terrasse. Chantilly était le jardin préféré de Le Nôtre. Son neveu Desgots y dessine en 1679 un labyrinthe qui sera détruit vers 1770. Chantilly : le parc de Le Nôtre, un vrai jardin d’eau Chantilly : les Grandes Ecuries de Jean Aubert Puis visite du Pavillon de Manse (1678) dit « le moulin des princes », situé à l’extérieur du château, pour régler les jeux d’eau du jardin.

Jour 3 : jeudi 6 juin 2019 L’Assemblée Nationale (Palais Bourbon) - L’hôtel de ville de Paris Départ pour une visite guidée de l’Assemblée Nationale (ou Palais Bourbon). La façade néoclassique sur Seine est terminée en 1810 (architecte Bernard Poyet). Mais c’est entre 1827 et 1832 que le palais prend, dans son organisation intérieure, sa physionomie actuelle sous la direction de l’architecte Jules de Joly. Les coupoles de la bibliothèque, accolées à l’aile Est, sont décorées par Eugène Delacroix (1847). Palais Bourbon : façade sur Seine Eugène Delacroix : les coupoles de la bibliothèque Déjeuner à la « Brasserie Bofinger », la plus alsacienne des brasseries parisiennes avec son décor historique d'exception. Puis départ pour une visite de l’Hôtel de Ville (sous réserve du calendrier des manifestations officielles). Après le retour d’exil de François Ier, le principal chantier de Paris est l’Hôtel de Ville (arch. Dominique de Cortone, ébéniste, sculpteur et qui ne s’établit comme architecte qu’en 1519). Il vend sa maison de Blois et s’installe à Paris. Il dirige le chantier jusqu’à sa mort (1532-1549) et le laisse inachevé (terminé sous Henri IV). Le style des façades ressemble aux hôtels Claude Chastillon : hôtel de ville de Paris de ville septentrionaux. (détail) 1610 VRB LOISIRS -RCS MENDE - IM012130009 De 1837 à 1848, l’agrandissement et la reconstruction partielle de l'hôtel de ville ont été menés par Etienne Hippolyte Godde et Jean-Baptiste Lesueur en préservant la façade Renaissance. Après l’incendie du 24 mai 1871, le bâtiment est reconstruit entre 1874 et 1882 sur les plans des architectes Théodore Ballu et Édouard Deperthes. La façade principale, de style Renaissance, est préservée mais agrandie et surélevée. Hôtel de ville de Paris après l’incendie (1871) Hôtel de ville de Paris aujourd’hui (façade principale) Retour à l’hôtel, dîner libre et logement. Jour 4 : vendredi 7 juin 2019 Le Palais Garnier - Le phalanstère de La Ruche Départ pour la visite guidée de l’Opéra Palais Garnier. 1860 : organisation d’un concours pour l'édification d'une « Académie impériale de musique et de danse », largement ouvert et international. Le 30 mai 1861, Charles Garnier, premier Grand Prix de Rome en 1848, est proclamé vainqueur à l’unanimité. Malgré des difficultés financières, le bâtiment sera livré en 1874. L'impératrice Eugénie manifesta ainsi son désaveu : « Qu'est-ce que c'est que ce style-là ? Ce n'est pas un style !... Ce n'est ni du grec, ni du Louis XV, pas même du Louis XVI » La réponse de Charles Garnier fut plus que judicieuse : « Non, ces styles-là ont fait leur temps... C'est du Napoléon III ! Et vous vous plaignez ! ». Le palais Garnier La salle du Palais Garnier avec le plafond La Danse de Carpeaux de Chagall (copie de Paul Belmondo) Le 23 septembre 1964, André Malraux alors ministre des affaires culturelles inaugurait le nouveau plafond de l’Opéra Garnier réalisé par Marc Chagall. La copie du groupe de La Danse de Carpeaux (l’original est au Musée d’Orsay) a été réalisée par Paul Belmondo en 1963. Déjeuner à la « Brasserie Zeyer », connue depuis 1913 avec son décor rétro et sa belle verrière. VRB LOISIRS -RCS MENDE - IM012130009 Départ pour la visite de La Ruche. En 1901, sur un terrain lui appartenant, le sculpteur Alfred Boucher fait remonter le pavillon des vins de la Gironde de l'Exposition universelle de 1900 par les équipes de Gustave Eiffel. Il le reconvertit en un phalanstère pour artistes désargentés, avec ateliers, logements et salle d'exposition. Son nom « la ruche » vient de sa configuration : des ateliers en alvéoles autour d’un escalier central. Cet endroit devint une sorte de village cosmopolite accueillant de nombreux artistes : Marc Chagall, Fernand Léger, Henri Laurens, Alexander Archipenko, Ossip Zadkine, Jacques Lipchitz, Vladimir Baranov-Rossiné, Amadeo Modigliani, Chaim Soutine et Moses Kisling. En 1914, Modigliani sculpta la cariatide de l’entrée. La Ruche en 1918 Cariatide de Modigliani La Ruche en 2017 à la Ruche (1914) Retour à l’hôtel, dîner libre et logement. Jour 5 : samedi 8 juin 2019 La Comédie Française – Le Musée de l’Orangerie – Aix-en-Provence - Marseille Départ pour la visite guidée de la Comédie-Française ou Théâtre-Français (surnommé le « Français »). Cette institution a été fondée par Louis XIV en 1680, mais le bâtiment actuel date de 1799. Sa conception est due au grand spécialiste des théâtres au XVIIIe siècle l'architecte Victor Louis. Après l’incendie du 8 mars 1900, le nouveau plafond de la salle Richelieu réalisé par Albert Besnard a été inauguré le 1er octobre 1913. Le « Théâtre-Français » ou Comédie-Française, 1799 Le plafond de la salle Richelieu, 1913 Déjeuner au café-librairie du Musée de l’Orangerie. Puis visite de l’exposition « Franz Marc et August Macke - 1909-1914» au Musée de l’Orangerie. Ces deux artistes qui illustrent le mouvement « Der Blaue Reiter (Le Cavalier bleu) » sont tombés sur les champs de bataille de la Grande Guerre : Auguste Macke le 26 septembre 1914, âgé de 27 ans, en Champagne à Perthes-les- Hurlus ; et Franz Marc le 4 mars 1916, âgé de 36 ans, devant Verdun. C’étaient deux grands amis de Paul Klee qui les a évoqués dans «Les fleurs d’affliction ». VRB LOISIRS -RCS MENDE - IM012130009 La peinture d’Auguste Macke témoigne de l’élégance de sa vision alors que celle de Franz Marc est toute empreinte d’énergie. Mais tous deux sont de remarquables coloristes. Paul Klee : Les fleurs Auguste Macke : La dame à la veste Franz Marc : Le cheval Bleu, d’affliction, 1917 1911 verte, 1913 Puis transfert en car en fin de journée pour la Gare de Lyon.

  • Under the July Monarchy (1830-1848)
    REPRESENTATIONS OF “LE TRAVAIL” UNDER THE JULY MONARCHY (1830-1848) by Rebecca Terese Powers A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland July, 2015 Representations of le travail under the July Monarchy ABSTRACT This project traces the definition of a social reality of labor under the July Monarchy. More specifically, it investigates how the ubiquitous but elusive term travail – understood as manual, non-agricultural work – operates at different levels of discourse in the 1830s and 1840s. To underline this specific cultural context, I employ the French travail rather than the English “work” or “labor.” French workers expected improved social conditions after their contribution to the 1830 Revolution, but were promptly denied this by the new Constitutional Monarchy. Their frustration came to a head in 1848, when they again revolted, demanding the right to work – le droit au travail. This moment is often considered the dawn of the French labor movement, but I contend that it is in the years leading up to 1848 that travail undergoes its most dramatic definition and consecration as a modern value. In order to better understand how the term took on such significance, I examine a variety of cultural documents, both literary and what we would today consider paraliterary. The corpus includes novels by Honoré de Balzac and George Sand; moralist inquiries by René Villermé and Honoré-Antoine Frégier; Jules Michelet’s historiography of the French people; and writings by the workers themselves, whose first-hand accounts of physical labor were becoming increasingly influential.

In 1906, at the age of 21, he moved to Paris. Many factors shaped his decision. Born in the port city of Livorno, he belonged to an educated family of Sephardic Jews (descended from Spain and Portugal), who encouraged his ambition and exposed him to languages and literature. He had seen great Renaissance art and had trained as a painter. But Paris offered excitement. Paris offered variety. There he would encounter ways of thinking, seeing and behaving that challenged and shaped his work. This exhibition opens with a self-portrait, painted around 1915, in which Modigliani presents himself as the tragic clown Pierrot. His contemporaries would have recognised the reference instantly as, at the time, the figure appeared in countless pictures, plays and films. A young person shaping their identity could relate to Pierrot, a stock character open to interpretation, linked to the past and looking towards the future. Pierrot could be comedic, melancholy or romantic, played by any actor or painted by any artist.

Painter of landscapes, urban landscapes, seascapes, still lifes, flowers. Expressionist. Pierre DUMONT is one of the most original and most unknown painters of the Rouen school. Having come to Paris at a very young age, Pierre DUMONT lived there poorly in the La Ruche district, then returned to Rouen around 1905, he painted very colorful landscapes, in an oily and thick paste spread out on the canvas as if he was sculpting his vision. To contain his "Fauve" temperament, Pierre DUMONT entered the Rouennaise Academy of Joseph Delattre, then founded with friends artists and writers the group of XXX which became in 1909 the Norman Society of modern painting. His first paintings were marked by the influences of Van Gogh and Cézanne. From around 1910 Pierre DUMONT began to paint Rouen cathedral, from 1914 to 1919 he mainly painted the streets of Montmartre, Notre Dame cathedral, the bridges of Paris and the banks of the Seine. From 1911 to 1916, Pierre DUMONT lived at the Bateau-Lavoir where he became friends with Picasso who kept a workshop there.

Arts, Spaces, Identities Why the School of Paris is not French Robert Jensen* University of Kentucky Abstract “Why the School of Paris is not French” explores the role geography plays in the definition of membership in the School. Noting that the School artists have an overwhelming foreign nationality, the paper asks what conditions were necessary for foreign artists to not only live and exhibit in Paris but to succeed as artists. The conclusions reached through a statistical study are that artists only began to succeed in Paris after 1900. Finally, the paper argues that the ability of foreign nationals to thrive in Paris is related to networks of relationships centered on communal studios.

Contact: [email protected] Natasha Lvovich City University of New York TRANSLINGUAL IDENTITY AND ART: MARC CHAGALL’S STRIDE THROUGH THE GATES OF JANUS Abstract: This hybrid piece, combining scholarly inquiry in several fields (from bilingualism and literary theory to visual art, cultural anthropology, and psychology) with the genre of personal essay, explores the concept of multilingual identity and creativity in visual art. Establishing the parallel between the phenomenon of ‘literary translingualism’ and the newly coined concept of ‘translingual art,’ the essay is focused on the multilingual life and art of an immigrant artist, Marc Chagall. Several of his paintings are analyzed within the framework of three translingual identity constructs: duality, ambivalence, and liminality. The complexity of translingual identity, and specifically Chagall’s, is illuminated by the author’s Jewish Russian roots and immigrant history, amplifying a holistic view of multilingualism and its relationship to creativity. Keywords: multilingualism translingual art creativity Russian-Jewish identity Marc Chagall Lvovich, Natasha. “Translingual Identity and Art: Marc Chagall’s Stride through the Gates of Janus.“ Critical Multilingualism Studies 3:1 (2015): pp. 112-134.
