Paul Gauguin: de doorbraak naar moderniteit

Paul Gauguin: de doorbraak naar moderniteit

In 1889, Paris hosted the legendary Exposition Universelle , a massive cultural exhibition which transformed the face of French culture to come. The Eiffel Tower was built for it, the composer Claude Debussy first heard Javanese music there, and the painter Paul Gauguin , reacting against his exclusion from its arts component, organized an exhibit called "L'Exposition de Peintures du Groupe Impressionniste et Synthésiste," on the walls of the Café Volpini, presenting the newest works by himself and his friends. It was the moment at which he "became Gauguin," for it was here that he premiered what is now known as the "Volpini Suite," an amazing portfolio of 11 lithographs printed on radiant canary yellow paper, which marked the coalescence of his motifs and the commencement of his mature style. The "Suite" also gives a chronicle of Gauguin's travels in Martinique, Brittany and Arles, and records the constellation of the Pont Aven group. "Gauguin" reconstructs this landmark exhibition, demonstrating the radicality of the works produced by Gauguin and his friends , and examining all paintings, woodcuts, ceramics, prints and drawings by Gauguin related to the show.
