Jean Bazaine
Jean Bazaine was born in Paris in 1904. While preparing for a literature degree, he was a student of the sculptor Landowski at the school of Fine Arts in Paris. In 1930, Bazaine showed his work in group exhibitions with Fautrier, Puni (Pougny) and Goerg and Gromaire whom he befriended. His first personal exhibition was organized in 1932; Pierre Bonnard encouraged him. Jean Bazaine visited Saint-Guénole for the first time in 1936. The sea and the light from the north acquired, since then, a privileged place in his artistic vision. The same year, he befriended Jacques Villon. He took part, the following year, in the important exhibition “L’art indépendent, Maîtres d’aujourd’hui” - “Independent Art, Masters of today” - (Petit Palais, Paris). He was awarded the Blumenthal prize in 1938. In 1941, Bazaine became one of the organizers of an exhibition that marked the history of painting at the School of Paris. An event, "Twenty young artists from French tradition" was conceived as a provocation to the German occupant who had qualified “degenerate art”. Until the end of the war, Bazaine often exhibited with Estève and Lapicque, while maintaining close relationships with painters such as Manessier, Singier, Gischia, Pignon or Moal. Bazaine then participated in major international events such as the Biennial Event of Venice, Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, Biennial Event of Sao Paulo, Documenta in Kassel, etc. His first truly important personal exhibition was held in Paris in 1949. Bazaine showed paintings created between 1944–49. His work then rejected appearance, transforming it lyrically sensitive by using a wide range of colors and by the harmonies of great richness. The first retrospective of his work was successively organized in 1959 by Kunsthalle of Bern, Stedelijk Museum of Eindhoven and by the Museum of Amsterdam. His exhibitions, both personal and collective, continued steadily over time. Bazaine explored many ways of expressions like a painter with the gouache, painter in watercolors, engraver and lithographer. Bazaine always continued an intense activity for work with monumental purposes such as painter of paperboards of tapestries, paperboards of mosaics (church of Audincourt, UNESCO in Paris, ORTF, Palace of Luxembourg, etc) and paperboards of stained glasses (Church of ESA, a castle of Lime, a church of Audincourt, Villeparisis, Saint-Séverin church of Paris, Cathedral of Saint-Dié, etc). He created sets for theatre and collaborated in the adventure of an illustrated book with friends such as André Frénaud, Raymond Queneau, Jean Tardieu, Éluard and others. Moreover, since 1934, Bazaine who remained throughout his life, a man of culture, punctuates his work of painters with written reflections on art and artists. His Notes on the painting of today (Ed. Floury, Paris, 1948) is a classic in the field of writings of painter and is repeatedly translated and republished. Bazaine died in Clamart (Hauts-de-Seine) in 2001.

- Sonia Delaunay - Composition - Original LithographBy Sonia DelaunayLocated in Collonge Bellerive, Geneve, CHSonia Delaunay - Composition Original Lithograph 1969 Dimensions: 32 x 25 cm Revue XXe Siècle Cahiers d'art published under the direction of G. di San Lazzaro. Sonia Delaunay was known for her vivid use of color and her bold, abstract patterns, breaking down traditional distinctions between the fine and applied arts as an artist, designer and printmaker. Born Sarah Stern on November 14, 1885 in Gradizhsk, Ukraine, she was adopted in 1890 by her maternal uncle, Henri Terk, a lawyer in St. Petersburg, where she grew up, exposed to music and art, and learning several foreign languages. In 1903, she moved to Germany to study drawing with Ludwig Schmidt-Reutler (1863–1909) at the Karlsruhe academy of fine arts; Arnold Schoenberg (1874–1951), composer-to-be, was among her classmates there. In 1905, she traveled to Paris where she attended art classes at the Académie de la Palette, learned printmaking from Rudolf Grossman (1889–1941), and met Amédée Ozenfant (1886–1966), André Dunoyer de Segonzac (1884–1974), and Jean-Louis Boussingault (1883–1943). Sonia spent much of her time at exhibitions and galleries in Paris, which showed works by Paul Cézanne, Vincent Van Gogh, Pierre Bonnard, and Edouard Vuillard, as well as Les Fauves, Henri Matisse and André Derain. She did, however, maintain contact with Germany, exhibiting at the Galerie Der Sturm, Berlin, in 1913, 1920 and 1921. During her first year in Paris, Sonia met the German collector and art-dealer, Wilhelm Uhde (1874–1947), whom she married on December 5, 1908, and whose Montparnasse gallery, the Galerie Notre-Dame des Champs, showed her first solo exhibition. Through Uhde, Sonia encountered many painters, including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Maurice de Vlaminck, and Robert Delaunay (1885–1941). In 1910, Sonia divorced Uhde by mutual agreement, married Delaunay that same year, and gave birth to their son, Charles, in January 1911. Together Sonia and Robert Delaunay pursued the study of color, influenced by theories of Michel-Eugène Chevreul (1786–1889). Sonia’s interest in simultaneous contrast, as evidenced in her early collages, book bindings, small painted boxes, cushions, waistcoats and lampshades, led to one of her first large-scale works, the painting of the Bal Bullier (1912–1913), a popular Parisian dance-hall. Sonia’s first “simultaneous dresses,” a mix of squares and triangles of taffeta, tulle, flannelette, moiré, and corded silk, date from this period. Friendship with the poet Blaise Cendrars...Category
