Guy Pene du Bois - American (1884 - 1958)

 

The Intellectuals - c. 1912 - 1914

 

grahamshay.com/artist/guy-pene-du-bois

 

Guy Pène du Bois was an American artist born into a French family. His training began in 1899 under William Merritt Chase. After spending time in France, the artist returned home to New York in 1906 and took a job as a general reporter with the New York American. It was a position that provided the interesting opportunity to observe people from all walks of life. During this early period in his career, Pène du Bois became involved with the Association of American Painters and Sculptors, which organized the Armory Show of 1913. Pène du Bois and his peers, who viewed themselves as a challenge to the conservative art establishment, resigned from the Association. His resignation left Pène du Bois free to establish a gallery career, which he did, and to cultivate the subtle and satirical humor in his work.

 

Guy Pène du Bois was one of the most stylish artists in early 20th century America. He found his subjects in daily life, painting the people he observed in cities, parks, cafes, cabarets, and at the opera. As an amused spectator of social theater and a gentle satirist, he often portrayed the comical pretensions of a variety of characters that included lawyers, actors, politicians, and gallery-goers. Pène du Bois began his training as a student of William Merritt Chase at the New York School of Art and was later under the direction of Robert Henri. Henri profoundly influenced the painter’s early stylistic approach of applying darkened tonalities and broad brushwork to the canvas, as well as Pène du Bois’ life-long interest in subject matter gleaned from “real life”. In 1905, Pène du Bois made his first visit to Paris, where he painted scenes of fashionable people in cafes rendered in the dark tonalities and impasto commonly associated with the Ashcan School.

 

AI Overview :

 

"The Intellectuals" (c. 1912-1914) is a notable early oil on panel painting by American realist painter and critic Guy Pène du Bois (1884–1958).The artwork, likely measuring approximately \(20 \times 15\) inches, is a characteristic example of his focus on social commentary and modern life, created shortly after his studies with Robert Henri and during his early involvement with the Ashcan School circle.Artistic Context and Style (c. 1912-1914)

 

Subject Matter: The painting features stylized figures, typical of his "vignettes of manners". While the Ashcan School often painted the working class, Pène du Bois (like in "The Intellectuals") often turned his gaze to the affluent or the pretentiously intellectual, portraying them with a hint of irony or satire.Technique: During this 1912–1914 period, his work was characterized by a lower-keyed palette and visible, sometimes sketchy, brushwork, reflecting the influence of his teachers William Merritt Chase and Robert Henri.Modernism: Despite being a realist, his work in this period began to adopt harder edges and more solid, sculptural forms, reflecting a "symbol of sophistication" rather than purely gritty realism.

 

This winter, the Polk Museum of Art at Florida Southern College presents “Edward Hopper and Guy Pène du Bois: Painting the Real,” an original, loan-based exhibition on view December 17, 2022, through March 26, 2023, in the Museum’s Dorothy Jenkins and Harper Family Galleries. Developed in collaboration with 511 Projects in New York, this exhibition of more than 60 works is the first of its kind to examine these two American masters side by side along with their interpretations of modern life in the early twentieth century.

 

Lifelong friends since their days at the New York School of Art, Edward Hopper (1882-1967) and Guy Pène du Bois (1884-1958) devoted their artistic practices to depicting the evolving modern worlds around them. Both artists were keen observers of American lives, both at home and abroad: Pène du Bois equally attentive to urban sophisticates in Paris and New York as to the lives of everyday Americans, and Hopper drawn to the eerie stillness of coastal landscapes and solemn interiority of his figures. Each took an individualized approach to painting life as it was.

 

“Although Hopper and Pène du Bois are both known for their succinct and fascinating depictions of people, a closer, more contextual reading of their artworks reveals their deep commitment to painting the world around them,” explained Mara Miller of 511 Projects, who co-curated the exhibition. “We have tried to let viewers see how relevant their works were to the century in which they lived but now how relevant they may be to the century in which we live and make art.”

 

Featuring paintings and works on paper from the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art, National Portrait Gallery, National Gallery of Art, Crystal Bridges Museum, the Terra Art Foundation, among other leading national institutions and private collections, this large-scale exhibition invites museum visitors to revisit the American twentieth century through each artist’s unique lens of Realism in a new and modernist context.

 

“Creating an exhibition featuring the works of Hopper and Pène du Bois has long been a dream for the museum, and we are thrilled finally to unveil this exceptional exhibition, four years in the making, to our community,” said Dr. H. Alexander Rich, executive director and chief curator of the Polk Museum of Art. “Hopper and Pène du Bois were among the most respected names in American art of the last century, and, while Hopper remains far better known to the public today, our exhibition brings both artists importantly to the fore, looking at their work, lives, and careers in tandem.”

American Modernism from the Charles Butt Collection: From Edward Hopper to Alma Thomas

 

Sunday, March 8, 2026 - Sunday, August 2, 2026

 

"American Modernism from the Charles Butt Collection: From Edward Hopper to Alma Thomas" is the first exhibition dedicated to the collection of businessman, philanthropist, and Texas native Charles Butt.

 

This exhibition presents over 80 rarely seen paintings and works on paper by icons of American modern art, including Edward Hopper, Ellsworth Kelly, Jacob Lawrence, Joan Mitchell, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Alma Thomas. The featured works span from the late 19th century through the 1970s, and will be grouped in seven thematic sections: Breaking Form: Cubism and Its Legacy, Urban Encounters, Intimate Perspectives, Precisionism, The Language of the Sea, Land Progressions, and Edges of Abstraction. The Blanton Museum of Art is one of four exclusive venues in Texas to host this exhibition.

 

Shared with the public for the first time, Butt’s collection reflects his vision of American creativity, as well as his civic dedication and commitment to education.

A major private collection of American modern art will go on public display for the first time this spring in Austin. Opening March 8 at the Blanton Museum of Art, “American Modernism from the Charles Butt Collection: From Edward Hopper to Alma Thomas” brings together more than 80 paintings and works on paper spanning the late 19th century through the 1970s. Organized by the Amon Carter Museum of American Art, the exhibition is the first dedicated to the collection of Texas businessman, philanthropist and H-E-B Chairman Charles Butt. It remains on view through Aug. 2 as part of a multicity Texas tour.

The exhibition features works by some of the most significant artists of the era, including Edward Hopper, Georgia O’Keeffe, Jacob Lawrence, Joan Mitchell and Alma Thomas.

 

“We are honored to bring this extraordinary collection to Austin,” said Simone Wicha, director of the Blanton Museum of Art. “Charles Butt’s vision as a collector reflects his deep belief in expanding access to art and education—a mission we share at the Blanton. We look forward to sharing these remarkable works, many of which have never been seen outside his private collection.”

 

The Blanton organizes the exhibition into seven thematic sections tracing key movements and ideas in American modernism. “Breaking Form: Cubism and Its Legacy” examines how artists such as Arthur Dove and Stuart Davis absorbed and reinterpreted Cubist strategies. “Precisionism” focuses on artists including Charles Sheeler and Charles Demuth, who applied geometric clarity to industrial and architectural subjects.

 

“Urban Encounters” explores the psychological dimensions of city life through works by Hopper, Marsden Hartley and Alice Neel. A smaller section, “Intimate Perspectives,” centers on portraiture and personal relationships, featuring artists such as Bill Traylor, Rufino Tamayo and Milton Avery.

 

Two sections focus on landscape and environment. “The Language of the Sea” nods to Butt’s Gulf Coast childhood in Corpus Christi, moving from realist seascapes to Thomas Hart Benton’s “Flight of the Thielens.” “Land Progressions” examines changing approaches to the American landscape, including John Marin’s “Weehawken Series,” painted amid industrial growth along New Jersey’s harbor.

 

The final section, “Edges of Abstraction,” traces the gradual move toward non-objective art across the 20th century. It includes works by female artists such as Mitchell, Blanche Lazzell and Alice Trumbull Mason, who used abstraction to develop new visual languages.

 

“American Modernism from the Charles Butt Collection” premiered at the Amon Carter Museum of American Art. After its run in Austin, it will travel to the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston and the McNay Art Museum, remaining exclusively in Texas.

As you enter the lobby, the first thing you see is an installation in the two-story atrium: Reflective, acrylic panels in ombre shades of blue cover the walls and staircase to create a submerged-in-water feeling.

 

The collection is compact but does an excellent job covering numerous genres: early Renaissance paintings, Roman-era pottery, modern works housed in the contemporary gallery, a vast collection of prints, and Native American and Latin American works.

 

The collection is well-paced and not overwhelming. A small series of sculptures is housed in a round rotunda. Contemporary works are showcased in gleaming white gallery spaces; skylights brighten more traditional, hardwood-floored spaces lined with Italian paintings. There are rotating exhibits, sometimes from big names like Ellsworth Kelly or Andy Warhol, in video, photography, paper, and print.

 

The Blanton Museum of Art is a teaching museum, so there are always university students in the galleries. And though it's the largest museum in Austin, it's rarely crowded beyond travelers who know and appreciate art.

I only went up here for the Blue Angels, but it was a great position. Actually much better than where we were on the strip with Amanda's wheelchair, because I had a clear veiw of the sky basically anywhere above about 10 feet of the ground.
