Icarus, Barbara Liotta
Through January 31, 2010
Conceived as a portrait of human energy and inner strength and as a symbol of flight and aspiration, this large-scale sculpture is made of strings and stones and suspended from the ceiling. Icarus is paired with portraits from the museum's permanent collection, including Eugène Delacroix's Paganini, Amedeo Modigliani's Elena Povolozky, and Chaim Soutine's Woman in Profile.
Part of INTERSECTIONS, a contemporary art series
Downstairs at the Orangerie there was an exhibition called "Les Arts à Paris - La collection Walter-Guillaume". Guillaume was a major Paris art dealer in the mid 20th century.
Here, Soutine focuses on the striaght road and respect for the vanishing lines of perspective, accentuated by the figure walking at its centre. The colours remain in natural harmony, but the houses in the background are tilted to the left, using a device Soutine employed quite often.
1929 "Head of woman" by LEON INDENBAUM 1890-1981, this Russian sculptor naturalized French, of Jewish religion, born in Belarus, arrived in Paris in 1911 at "La Ruche" and he participated in the artistic movement "Ecole de Paris" with his friends … Archipenko, Bonnard, Boucher, Bourdelle, Brancusi, Braque, Bugatti, Chagall, Chapiro, Cocteau, Codreano, Csaky, Derain, Despiau, Epstein, Foujita, Giacometti, Hepworth, Indenbaum, Janniot, Kikoine, Kisling, Kremegne, Laurencin, Laurens, Léger, Lichitz, Marevna, Matisse, Miestchaninoff, Miro, Modigliani, Orloff, Picasso, Pompon, Rivera, Soutine, Thaikov, Utrillo, Valandon, Vlaminck, Zadkine, Zelikson … Marble sculpture 16 in. 41cm.

Brown appropriates images by living, working artists, such as Frank Auerbach and Georg Baselitz, as well as paintings by historical artists, such as Guido Reni, Diego Velázquez, Anthony van Dyck, Rembrandt, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Eugène Delacroix, John Martin, Gustave Courbet, Adolph Menzel, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Vincent van Gogh, Chaim Soutine and Salvador Dalí. He claims that the references to these artists are not direct quotations, but alterations and combinations of several works by different artists, although the artists whose work is appropriated do not always agree. As art critic Michael Bracewell states, Brown is less concerned with the art-historical status of those works he appropriates than with their ability to serve his purpose – namely his epic exploration of paint and painting. In most cases, the artist uses reproductions printed in exhibition catalogues, found on the internet or ordered through print-on-demand companies. By scanning and changing the image with programmes like Photoshop, Brown playfully alters the image to his specific needs. He distorts, stretches, pulls, turns the image upside down and changes the colour, usually based on other found images, as well as the background setting. Describing his working practice in an interview, Brown stated: I‘m rather like a Dr Frankenstein, constructing paintings out of the residue or dead parts of other artist‘s work. I hope to create a sense of strangeness by bringing together examples of the way the best historic and modern-day artists have depicted their personal sense of the world. I see their worlds from multiple or schizophrenic perspectives, through all their eyes. Their sources of inspiration suggest things I would never normally see – rocks floating in far-off galaxies, for example, or a bowl of flowers in an 18th-century room, or a child in a fancy-dress costume. It‘s those fictions that I take as subject matter. The scenes may have been relatively normal to Rembrandt or Fragonard but because of the passage of time and the difference in culture, to me they are fantastical.

Chaim Soutine (1893-1943) oil on canvas at the Columbus Museum of Art in Columbus Ohio. Written near the painting: Cagnes is a town located in the sunny environment of southern France. It is depicted here by Soutine, an Eastern European artist who had settled in Paris in the early 20th century and worked in a modernist style based on expressive distortions. In this view of Cagnes, where he spent time in the early 1920s, his typically thick paint warps shapes, bending buildings and trees, and flattening space.

CATALOGUE NOTE
La Vieille dame au chien is a vigorous example of Chaïm Soutine’s portraiture. Painted circa 1919, the composition is dominated by an anonymous sitter, attired in a rich and sumptuous black, with a small dog in her lap and sporting a hat adorned with a red blossom, who contrasts sharply against the background of deep blues and lyrical greens. “The singular approach to portraiture which is present as early as 1916…remains typical of Soutine throughout his life; basically it is the distinctive manner in which the figure is placed in the picture field. Subjects are set into their pictorial space with a certain clumsy rigor. They are centrally and frontally positioned… Soutine’s figures face you and command your attention. Yet they are apparently indifferent to the presence of the artist. While Soutine ‘projected’ himself into his portraits, there is still much individual characterisation in these works….At first glance, Soutine’s models are seemingly free in their life space, but they are flattened and distorted, spread out and hung up. Their flesh has metamorphosed into purely coloured paste, its viscous surface often of the same textural consistency as the background or surrounding space. All is flesh, all as if flesh were grafted onto flesh” (C. Soutine, 1893-1943 (exhibition catalogue), Westfälisches Landesmuseum für Kunst und Kulturgeschicht, Munster; Kunsthalle Tubingen, Tubingen; Hayward Gallery, London & Kunstmuseum Luzerne, Lucerne, 1981-82 p. 60).
It was around the time this work was painted that Soutine left Paris for a long stay in Ceret. The preceding years he had spent in the French capital, immersed in the world of La Ruche and its residents; he arrived in Paris in July of 1912 and soon took up residence in this artists’ colony. Monroe Wheeler writes of the group of artists with whom Soutine mixed in Paris in the late 1910s, and of his character as an artist: "Soutine, Pascin, Utrillo and Modigliani - they have been grouped together as though violence of temper and proneness to trouble constituted a school of art. In France they are called Les peintres maudits - painters under a curse... Soutine was the least calamitous and least dissipated of the four, but perhaps the saddest. For as his art developed, it offered no distraction from his anxieties, animosities and self-reproach - no escape. Not that he intended any effect of autobiography by means of his art. But from an early age he used his hardship, pessimism and truculence to set a tragic tone for his painting, irrespective of its subject matter. Limiting the themes of his work to conventional categories - still life, landscape, portraiture and picturesque figure-painting - he would always charge his pictures with extreme implications of what he had in mind: violence of nature, universality of hunger, and a peculiar mingling of enthusiasm and antipathies" (M. Wheeler, Chaïm Soutine, New York, The Museum of Modern Art (exhibition catalogue), 1950, p. 31).

Downstairs at the Orangerie there was an exhibition called "Les Arts à Paris - La collection Walter-Guillaume". Guillaume was a major Paris art dealer in the mid 20th century.
Painted around 1923, this sinuous, tortured landscape seems to be dancing. Soutine's treatment makes the world pitch unsteadily in the grip of instability. The artist offers a vision of the cosmos which is steeped in pantheism.

Amedeo Clemente Modigliani (12 July 1884 – 24 January 1920) was an Italian painter and sculptor who worked mainly in France. He is known for portraits and nudes in a modern style characterized by a surreal elongation of faces, necks, and figures that were not received well during his lifetime, but later became much sought-after. Modigliani spent his youth in Italy, where he studied the art of antiquity and the Renaissance. In 1906, he moved to Paris, where he came into contact with such artists as Pablo Picasso and Constantin Brâncuși. By 1912, Modigliani was exhibiting highly stylized sculptures with Cubists of the Section d'Or group at the Salon d'Automne.
