    Exposition :  The Japonism of Emile Gallé Date : 3 April 2017 – 31 March 2018 Lieu : Kitazawa Museum of Art À la fin du XIXe siècle, l’Europe occidentale voit la naissance d’une grande vague de renouveau dans le domaine des arts décoratifs. Celle-ci a pour principal modèle la Nature. En effet, des ouvrages scientifiques décisifs paraissent dans les années 1860 (Haeckel, Dresser, Blossfeldt…) qui fournissent un répertoire de formes nouvelles et entraînent les arts dans un élan vers la modernité. Horloge, vers 1880. Faïence, décor sur émail stannifère, éclats jaunes, hauteur : 41,6 cm ; largeur : 35 cm ; profondeur : 11,8 cm. Musée de l’École de Nancy,…

    Exhibition: A Passionate Eye for Japanese Art. Japonisme in Emile Gallé’s Work Date: 3 April 2017 – 31 March 2018 Venue: Kitazawa Museum of Art During the end of the 19th century, Western Europe experienced a great rebirth and reinvigoration in decorative arts, with a focus on the imitation of nature. In fact, in the 1860s, vital scientific works (by Haeckel, Kommode, Blossfeldt, etc.) were published, offering the new art a repertoire of forms, and directing it towards a path of modernity. At the same time, a taste for Japanese art started to develop, seen through personalities such as Hayashi Tadamasa, an art dealer, who set up residence in France,…

    January 8, 2015 / 2 Comments

    Émile Gallé was a leading artist of the Art noveau style and was able to put his love for insects, animals and flowers into vases, porcelain and furniture, to capture their beauty into usable objects, creating pieces of art at the same time. Starting from his childhood, Gallé developed an almost ecstatic love for mother nature. One of his favourite designs seemed to be the dragonfly, an insect so tiny and delicate, but it can also be a danger to your life…. Gallé, born 1846 in Nancy, started studying zoology, botanics and minerology, because he drew inspiration from observing nature while walking through the woods. Who could have anticipated, that…
