    MUCHA RENCONTRE LA CHINE: Une exposition à couper le souffle Mucha à Shanghai

    July 25, 2019 / 0 Comments

    Exposition: Mucha Date: 30 mars au 21 juillet 2019 Lieu: Pearl Art Museum, Shanghai, Chine. Le texte ci-dessous est l’extrait du livre Mucha: écrit par Patrick Bade  et Victoria Charles, publié par Parkstone International. La théâtralité sensuelle du style baroque d’Europe centrale, caractérisé par une décoration luxuriante curviligne inspirée de la nature, nourrit certainement son imagination et lui inspira le goût des «senteurs et des cloches» ainsi que d’un bric-à-brac religieux, qu’il ne perdrait jamais. À l’apogée de sa gloire, son atelier était décrit comme «une chapelle profane… des paravents disposés de part et d’autre, qui auraient bien pu être des confessionnaux, et de l’encens brûlant en permanence. On pense plutôt à la…

    MUCHA IN CHINA: Eine atemberaubend schöne Mucha-Ausstellung in Shanghai

    July 24, 2019 / 0 Comments

    Ausstellung: Mucha Datum: 30. März bis 21. Juli 2019 Museum: Das Pearl Art Museum in Shanghai, China Der untenstehende Text ist ein Auszug aus dem Buch Alfons Mucha von Patrick Bade und Victoria Charles, herausgegeben von Parkstone International. Die üppige Theatralik des zentraleuropäischen Barock mit seinem prächtigen, mit vielen Rundungen versehenen und von der Natur inspirierten Dekor regte ohne Zweifel Muchas Fantasie an und nährte seine dauerhafte Vorliebe für „Glocken und Gerüche“ sowie religiöse Gegenstände. Auf dem Höhepunkt seines Ruhmes beschrieb jemand sein Atelier als„… eine säkulare Kapelle … hier und dort stehen Trennwände, bei denen es sich gut um Beichtstühle handeln könnte; und die ganze Zeit brennt Weihrauch. Es erinnert mehr an die…

    MUCHA MEETS CHINA: A Breathtakingly Beautiful Mucha Exhibition in Shanghai

    July 22, 2019 / 0 Comments

    Exhibition: Mucha Date:   2019.03.30-07.21 Venue:  Pearl Art Museum, Shanghai, China. The text below is the excerpt of the book Alphonse Mucha, written by Patrick Bade and Victoria Charles, published by Parkstone International. This article is the continuation of part 1, which can be read here. The luxurious theatricality of Central European Baroque with its lush curvilinear and nature-inspired decoration undoubtedly coloured his imagination and inspired a taste for “smells and bells” and religious paraphernalia that remained with him throughout his life. At the height of his fame, his studio was described as being like a “secular chapel… screens placed here and there, that could well be confessionals; and then incense burning all…

    Where Mucha’s Magic Began: The Gismonda-poster

    April 20, 2016 / 0 Comments

    At thirty-four, and almost half of his life, Alphonse Mucha (1860-1939) seemed to be kind of an unfortunate lad. Imagine yourself, for instance, going to Vienna because you finally found a job, and, shortly after you arrive, your workplace burns down! Mucha made it to Paris though, and one fine Christmas day in 1894, a woman stepped into his life and changed everything. Doesn’t that give hope? Okay, he did not quite win the heart of that woman – but that would have been expecting too much given who she was: Sarah “G.O.A.T.” Bernhardt. (You don’t know Sarah Bernhardt? Click me, I’m concise information and a photo!) She needed a…
