Pierre-Paul Jouve Furniture
French, 1880-1973
In the time when the School of Fine Arts and official or special academies promote
the study of human model, Paul Jouve,
influenced by his father, prominent
landscape painter and portraitist, shows
more interest in study of animal models.
Since his childhood, his father took him
to Paris museums and botanic gardens and
to Jardin d’Acclimatation - he will keep coming
back to them during his entire career -
At the age of 16, simultaneously with
his art studies Paul Jouve learns the
art of gravure and the lithography at
Henri Patrice Dillon He was then noticed by Renée Binet, the
architect in charge for the construction
of many buildings at Universal Exhibition
in 1900, who for this occasion order from
Jouve to make two groups of lions and to
decorate the monumental gateway of one
significant frieze in sandstone made by
Alexandre Bigot.
The support of the Gallery Bing where
he exhibited his work in 1905 enables
him to finance his travels to Europe and
Algeria. Numerous journeys he undertook during
his life thanks to awarded scholarships
-Algeria, Equatorial, Africa or Far-East- or historical
events, like those in Greece during the WWI,
enabled him to record new terminology
and numerous graphic and animaliers
repertoires that his talent of drawer,
illustrator, engraver and sculptor
fantastically depicts.
Paul Jouve exhibits in 1911
in the Gallery of Modern Artists, over
one hundred thirty drawings and four
sculptures. The press is unanimous and acknowledges
the contained force and the architecture
of his figures, constancy of his models
and his precise meaning of forms ; Jouve’s
eye sees beyond visible and catches
what is sudden, fugitive, and sometimes
silent ; the animal comes out from the
lines of the drawing, he liked to say.
The press, the critique and the collectors
are also unanimous when in 1921 the
Group of Four was created, gathering
talents like Paul Jouve, Jean Goulden
and François-Louis Schmied under the
leadership of Jean Dunand. Every year
until 1933, the group exhibited in the
Gallery Georges Petit, different pieces
like furniture, works of art, paintings,
book covers and enamels.
Simultaneously, Paul Jouve, now leader of the animaliers,
exhibits with them regularly in the gallery
Brandt. In 1929 it was renamed Gallery
Malesherbes and later around 1933, it
was taken over by Edouard-Marcel Sandoz.
After the war the group exhibited in
the gallery Art vivant and finally, from
1948 to 1957, in circle Volney, also
purchased by Sandoz.
Jouve’s career is marked by prestigious
orders, such as Ocean liner Normandie in 1935, and the literary work he will
illustrate during his career, such as Jungle
book by Kypling in 1919.
In years after the WWII some beautiful
retrospectives of his work took place.
All his life he dedicated his multiple
talent to animal, drawn and statuary
character of his work, without ever
betraying or leaving his virtuosity.
Being a great traveler, from Bedouin
tents to Angkor, he gave to his work an
incomparable and unique diversity made
of light, architecture, expressions
and imagination.to
