    Charles Le Brun : « Ce que vous allez apprendre sur l’artiste-star du XVIIe siècle va sûrement vous étonner ! »

    May 17, 2016 / 0 Comments

    Charles Le Brun est pour toujours associé à Louis XIV et au faste de son règne. Le XVIIe siècle voit alors l’art français briller à son zénith, astre égal au suzerain solaire. Car le goût du roi pour la magnificence ne peut souffrir les petitesses d’ambition, et Louis XIV n’est point avare de moyens pour s’assurer l’immortalité par les arts, tel les antiques pharaons amassant richesses et compagnie dans leurs futurs tombeaux.

    Impressionism: a Disney movie without all of the singing

    May 2, 2013 / 0 Comments

    Nature? Good. Romance? I can dig it. Impressionism? Bite me. You know what Impressionism is? It’s a beautiful, made-up, dream-like view at an otherwise harsh, sometimes cruel reality. Impressionism is to art viewers what Disney movies are to the generation of 20-somethings that grew up expecting perfect hair, woodland friends, and Prince Charming – not to mention the desire to go around singing about everything all of the damn time.
