Catalogue de l’exposition au Musée de La Poste à Paris du 19 mai au 01 novembre 2021
A la pointe de l’art. Du dessin au timbre-poste. Les coulisses de la création.
<p>L'exposition intitulée « À la pointe de l'art » sera la troisième exposition temporaire du musée depuis sa réouverture. Au coeur de cette exposition se trouve le timbre-poste ; en effet, les collections philatéliques constituent le fonds le plus important du musée. Cependant, le sujet de l'exposition portera moins sur les aspects techniques du timbre que sur la création de l'oeuvre à proprement parler. En effet, en plus d'être une estampe, le timbre reste l'une des plus petites surfaces de création qui existent au monde mais aussi l'une des plus diffusées. Aussi, les dessins originaux et les poinçons gravés d'artistes seront au coeur du propos. En plus des timbres eux-mêmes, le musée conserve dans le cadre du dépôt obligatoire des archives du timbre-poste français des milliers de pièces témoignant du processus créatif conduisant à l'émission d'un timbre : les esquisses et dessins préparatoires, les épreuves d'impression, essais de couleurs ou poinçons gravés.<br>L'idée première est de démontrer que, bien que le timbre soit une oeuvre de commande régie par un cahier des charges strict, la place accordée au geste de l'artiste reste très présente. Le parcours de l'exposition sera ainsi ponctué de neuf portraits de dessinateurs, graveurs, peintres, illustrateurs, tous créateurs de timbres et ayant des carrières artistiques et parcours très différents. C'est une manière pour le Musée de La Poste de valoriser la création philatélique et de l'ancrer dans le vaste domaine de l'histoire de l'art. À côté des peintures d'Henry Cheffer ou estampes de Pierre Albuisson, le visiteur découvrira les gravures héraldiques de Sarah Bougault, les sculptures de Jacques Jubert, les peintures sur ivoire de Pierrette Lambert, les bandes dessinées de Pierre Forget, l'univers fantastique de Thierry Mordant et Ciou, ainsi que le monde foisonnant de détails et d'histoires de Jean Delpech.<br>Le timbre-poste est une surface de création à la fois unique et pour autant connue de tous. Ce support artistique voyage et nous fait voyager. Depuis les années 1960, la série artistique, imaginée par André Malraux pour mettre l'art à portée de tous les Français, a su s'imposer et c'est donc tout naturellement que certains des plus grands artistes se sont approprié le timbre-poste pour nous proposer de merveilleuses créations. Tomi Ungerer, Victor Vasarely, Raoul Ubac, Jean-Michel Folon, Salvador Dali, Roger Bezombes et bien d'autres se sont prêtés à l'exercice et le résultat est toujours impressionnant.</p> Gent, 2021 Snoeck 184 p., broché. 23 x 28

Catalogue exposition, Paris, musée national de l'Orangerie, 15 avril - 13 juillet 2015
Adolfo Wildt (1868-1931), le dernier symboliste.
<p>Un art «inexorable et parfait« Margherita Sarfatti Sculpteur par excellence, Adolfo Wildt (1868-1931) est issu de la prestigieuse généalogie des tailleurs de marbre, des dominateurs du bloc comme Michel-Ange. Au tournant du siècle, il réconcilie l'artiste et l'artisan, donnant une dimension noble au travail du marbre. Proche du symbolisme, il a su élaborer un langage où l'expressionnisme se mêle aux réminiscences de l'art antique, du gothique, de la Renaissance, dans un équilibre inédit entre la force expressive du modèle et la grâce de motifs purement décoratifs. Présenté pour la première fois en France, l'oeuvre de Wildt, inclassable, parfois incompris, n'aura de cesse d'étonner, de fasciner voire de diviser.</p> Paris, 2015 256 p., illustrations couleur et N/B, relié. 23 x 29

Catalogue de l'exposition à la Fondation Giacometti à Paris du 25 février au 17 juin 2020.
Alberto Giacometti. A la recherche des œuvres disparues.
<p>Résultat d’une enquête originale sur les sculptures d’Alberto Giacometti dont on a perdu la trace, l’exposition met en lumière plus de soixante-dix œuvres - sculptures de référence, dessins, croquis inédits et photographies d’archives des années 1920-1935. Alberto Giacometti traverse de nombreuses phases de doute, au cours de sa carrière, qui le poussent à remettre inlassablement son travail en question. Souvent insatisfait du résultat, en recherche constante, il oscille entre des périodes de destruction et de riches phases de créations. Giacometti n'hésite pas à retravailler ses oeuvres même après les avoir exposées, voire à les abandonner lorsqu'il les juge ratées. L'exposition L'Oeuvre disparue enquête sur ces pièces disparues ou oubliées, dont ne subsiste souvent que des croquis ou des photographies prises dans l'atelier de l'artiste. </p> Lyon, 2020 Fage 190 p., relié. 17 x 23,5

Catalogue de l'exposition au Musée du Louvre à Paris du 01 octobre 2020 au 04 janvier 2021.
Albrecht Altdorfer. Maître de la Renaissance allemande.
<p>Peintre, dessinateur et graveur actif à Ratisbonne, Albrecht Altdorfer (vers 1480-1538) est un artiste majeur de la Renaissance germanique, même s'il reste moins connu que d'autres maîtres de sa génération, comme Albrecht Dürer ou Lukas Cranach. Cet ouvrage monographique vise à présenter la richesse et la diversité de l'oeuvre d'Albrecht Altdorfer, artiste doté d'une grande capacité d'invention formelle et iconographique, pionnier dans les genres du paysage et de l'architecture. Il met en exergue sa stature d'artiste de la Renaissance, à la fois très original et parfaitement au fait de la création artistique de ses contemporains. Tous les aspects de sa vie artistique sont étudiés, avec une sélection de dessins, gravures, peintures et objets. Le parti adopté est à la fois chronologique et thématique, tout en réservant des sections aux différents genres dans lesquels le travail d'Altdorfer a été particulièrement important et novateur, comme le paysage, l'orfèvrerie et l'architecture. </p> Paris, 2020 Lienart 342 p., cartonnage éditeur. 24,5 x 29

Catalogue exposition, Fondation Giacometti - Institut, Musée du Louvre, Paris, 2021.
Alberto Giacometti et l'Égypte antique.
<meta charset="utf-8"><span data-mce-fragment="1">Alberto Giacometti a toujours éprouvé une fascination pour les œuvres de l'Égypte antique. Que ce soit dans ses dessins, sa sculpture ou sa peinture, l'art égyptien constitue à la fois un répertoire de formes et une source d'inspiration essentielle pour sa pratique. Des statues de scribes et de pharaons aux portraits de momies du Fayoum, Giacometti, en fervent visiteur du musée du Louvre, a porté son regard sur toutes les périodes de l'antiquité égyptienne, entretenant un dialogue personnel avec cet art millénaire. Une collaboration exceptionnelle avec le musée du Louvre permet de prolonger ce dialogue en confrontant des œuvres emblématiques de Giacometti, ainsi que de nombreux dessins inédits, avec des statues égyptiennes. Ce livre richement illustré offre une relecture originale de l'art de Giacometti à travers le prisme de l'Égypte antique.</span> Paris, 2021 éditions Fage 192 p., très nombreuses planches couleur, cartonnage éditeur.

Catalogue de l'exposition au Centre Pompidou à Paris en 2022 (initialement prévue de juin à août 2020).
Alice Neel. Un regard engagé.
<p>Méconnue de son vivant, Alice Neel (1900-1984) s'impose aujourd'hui comme une figure majeure de la peinture américaine, notamment grâce à l'acuité de ses portraits des différentes communautés new-yorkaises. Sympathisante communiste, Neel s'est intéressée tout au long de sa vie aux injustices et aux inégalités, épinglant la ségrégation raciale comme la discrimination à l'encontre des femmes et des homosexuels. Ses nus féminins, peints sans concession, ont fait d'elle une icône du féminisme. Centré sur deux thématiques - la lutte des classes et la lutte des sexes - , Alice Neel, Un regard engagé explore les dimensions politique et sociale d'une peinture puissante à la lumière de citations et de propos inédits de l'artiste. En tant que l'un des rares catalogues en langue française consacré à la peintre, le catalogue se déploie autour de quatre essais et une ample anthologie accompagnant une soixantaine d'œuvres éclairées par de nombreuses citations de l'artiste. </p> Paris, 2020 Centre Pompidou 160 p., très nombreuses illustrations, broché. 23 x 28
