joana vasconcelos
Joana Vasconcelos (Paris, 1971) Blue Rose, 2016 Stainless steel shower heads, handmade woollen crochet, fabric, ornaments, polyester H 246 x W 95 x D 47 cm Provenance: the artist's studio Courtesy Joana Vasconcelos and Galerie La Patinoire Royale Bach A group of works belonging to various series - Showers, Washbasins and Urinals - in which Joana Vasconcelos adds colourful crocheted elements to household sanitary ware. Resorting to crochet, Joana refers to the intimacy of the domestic realm through its link to female labour, who work from home and for the home. Textiles infiltrate and/or cover up ceramics. These coloured, smooth, and pliable additions contrast with the hard, sterile coldness of the porcelain. The disruptive process of transformation encourages a fresh look at these everyday objects and intimacy. "Water, for me, is synonymous with life and renewal. It is such a constant presence in our routine in Europe that I was only aware of its real importance when I traveled to Mexico. I remember walking into a pueblo house, which consisted of a single room, where everything happened, complete with a hammock and television, but there wasn't one single tap. That realisation awakened me. Gradually, water entered my body of work, through the shape of swimming pools, urinols or washbasins, for instance, where the aquatic representation is made through textile elements, often in blue colors with bright details simulating the water reflection. My work as an artist allows me to address pressing matters, such as the sustainability of the planet and the management of resources for the future. And the expression of water in my work is done through abundance, with elements that flow from the works, defining what water represents more and more: a luxury."

These ideas, rooted in ancient mythology and Renaissance painting, can also be seen against the political background of the time and the leanings owards an anarchist utopian ideology that many artists favoured at the time, where humans could live harmoniously in nature. Whilst the Impressionists had eschewed depictions from mythology, opting for the real, modern, and changing landscapes of their own time, there had been a trend increasingly to look back on the art of the 18th century, and the Neo-Impressionists started to look back to these myths for inspiration. In this painting, from 1905, Cross uses the theme of the mythological Leda and the swan in a contemporary setting. At this time, Cross was interested in Friedrich Nietzsche’s writing, especially his theories on Dionysian revelry and abandon. Using Leda and the swan, he explored a myth often portrayed in classical art, seen in paintings by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci (both lost), Tintoretto and Rubens. Cezanne had made his version of the theme in 1882 (now in the Barnes Foundation). The swan is a subject that Cross had painted several times prior to this (Including Three Swans, c.1899-1900, Fogg Museum ; Family of Swans c.1899 -1900., Private collection; The Swan, 1893, Private Collection), among others. It would seem that the bird fascinated him, perhaps as it lives on the water, affording an opportunity to paint the effects of light reflecting on the water. In this painting, he unites the swan and an opportunity to paint a nude, using pale pink, fleshy tones. Cross’s Leda is aboard a small rowing boat, leaning on the edge, watching the swan intently. The swan, just left of the centre, forms a heart shape with its wings arched. Cross’s brushstrokes are larger, broader, and quite impasto in places. As was typical for him during this period, he leaves significant spaces between strokes, especially to the right of Leda and in the sky, bringing our eye down to the more densely painted area of water, the figure of Leda and the swan itself. The pinks used for Leda’s body are echoed in the sky and again in dashes around the swan, linking the two protagonists of this story. Dashes of turquoise blue we see in the sky and the interior of the boat. At the almost central part of the painting, the dense use of pale colours for the water, the swan seems to come out of the water, as if camouflaged, unfurling its wings. From the early to mid 1890’s Cross’s paintings were more characteristically Pointillist, a technique originated by Seurat and Signac, using small and regularly positioned dots of colour harmoniously. However, following Seurat’s early death, in 1891 both Cross and Signac evolved their technique from around 1895 into using broader, longer brushstrokes, in contrasting colours, leaving small areas of exposed canvas between the strokes, placing the paint like mosaics on the canvas. This approach, where he favoured keeping the colours separate, resulted in vibrant, shimmering visual effects through contrast. This painting is a wonderful example of this period and style of Cross’s work. 1905 was the culmination of a vibrant and fertile stretch of work, seeing him access a freedom within to seek expression and style, and a bold use of colour. That year, he was rewarded by an important solo exhibition at the Galerie Druet in Paris.

Finally, note the return of very large formats and virtual polyptychs. From mid-63 onwards, there is almost a disappearance of scraping. This technique was technically linked to the thick quality of the layer deposited by the painter, to its paste-like character. On the contrary, the canvases now show large swathes of dark, black, or brown-black paint, where the much more liquid coloured material is no longer deposited and removed with the blade, but spread with a brush, in a movement that leaves practically no trace. The fluidity is such that some paintings have streaks of black paint running down'.

jacques jordaens
Jacques Jordaens (Antwerp, 1593-1678) An academy of a seated male nude, circa 1635 Black chalk and sanguine, heightened with white, on laid paper 27.3 x 19.7 cm Provenance: Marquis Charles-Ferdinand-Louis de Valori, Paris (1820-1883), Paris (L. 2500); Hôtel Drouot, Paris, 25-26 November 1907, lot 136 (80 fcs to Mathey); Henry Nanteuil de La Norville (1876-1941), thence by descent Jacob (or Jacques) Jordaens was born in Antwerp in 1593. Little is known about his early life. At age fourteen he became an apprentice of Adam van Noort, who had also taught painters like Sebastiaen Vrancx and Peter Paul Rubens. He stayed with van Noort for eight years and joined the Guild of St Luke as a 'waterpainter' in 1615. The following year, he married van Noort's daughter Anna Catharina. The couple had three children, one of whom, Jacob II, went on to become a painter himself. Jordaens' clientele consisted mostly of well-to-do burghers and clergymen, although after the death of Rubens and van Dyck he was given several courtly commissions too, including a set of eight paintings for Charles I of England and a series of commissions for Christina of Sweden. He also producted numerous designs for tapestries. Apart from a few trips up in the Northern Netherlands, Jordaens lived and worked in Antwerp his whole life. He became a wealthy man and a prolific artist, remaining productive until the end of his life. Between 1621 and 1667, the records list fifteen official pupils, but the actual number of students and assistants that passed through his studio must have been much higher, especially given his sizeable output of often large-scale works. Stylistically, Jordaens was enormously influenced by Rubens, especially in his early work, although the influence of Italian painters such as Veronese and Barocci - whom he studied through prints and copies, having never been to Italy - can also readily be felt, for example in his use of vibrant colours. Until about 1618, his work clearly shows a mannerist touch. Caravaggism certainly also left its mark on his artistic development, as did the work by his contemporary Abraham Janssens. Gradually, Jordaens developed a style that was more his own, fusing the monumental figures of Rubens and Janssens with the brilliant colours of the Italians, combined with a sense of realism. Later on, his figures became somewhat more crudely painted, his compositions marked by a folksy exuberance and a more restriced, darker colour palette. From the 1650's onwards, the quality of his work deteriorated visibly; his later work often shows crowded compositions - albeit with less monumental figures - and at times an almost monochrome use of colour, often restricted to thinly applied blue-grey or earth tones. Jordaens was a somewhat gifted portrait painter, who also produced religious, mythological and history paintings as well as illustrations of Flemish proverbs. He is especially famous for the latter, following in the footsteps of Pieter Bruegel the Elder's genre tradition, depicting Flemish life with honesty and authenticity and staging common people in celebratory expressions of life. These humourous, albeit sometimes also somewhat coarse pictures, are amongst his best known work. Jordaens also etched a number of plates and was a prolific draughtsman, producing many excellent drawings either as preparatory sketches or as artworks in their own right. This drawing, not recorded in print or reproduced since the catalogue of the 1907 sale (see Provenance), is a new addition to three groups of important nude studies by Jordaens, all depicting middle-aged or older men (for a recent discussion, see N. Van Hout in Jordaens et l’antiquité, exhib. cat., Brussels, Musées Royaux des Beaux-Arts de Belgique, and Kassel, Museumslandschaft Hessen Kassel, 2012-2013, pp. 54-59, nos. 18-27, ill.). The majority can be dated to the 1620s, early in the artist’s career, and are divided between the collections of the Museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf and the Hessisches Landesmuseum Darmstadt (R.-A. d’Hulst, Jordaens Drawings, Brussels, 1974, I, nos. A8-A20, III, figs. 8-20); an additional sheet is held at the British Museum (inv. Gg,2.228; see ibid., I, no. A21, III, fig. 21). All seem to depict the same strong, bearded, curly-haired man. Of the same model, but markedly superior than the drawings in Darmstadt, Düsseldorf and London, is a sheet in a private collection that was sold at Christie’s, New York, January 26th, 2011, lot 282. Dated to the early 1640s are four studies of an older, bald, and corpulent man – the ‘Silenus type’ – of which two are untraced, and the others are in the print room of the university library in Leiden (inv. PK-T-AW-249) and in the Louvre (inv. RF 674; see D’Hulst, op. cit., I, nos. A148-A151, III, figs. 161-163). Although more accomplished, the present work seems to belong to a third group, drawn from the same model as a study that can be dated to the second half of the 1630s at the State Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg (inv. OR-14234; see D’Hulst, op. cit., I, A123, III, fig. 135); a third drawing should perhaps be related to these two sheets, although in the past it has been dated later (Frits Lugt Collection, Paris, inv. 5172; see D’Hulst, op. cit., I, no. A154, III, fig. 166). At least some of these drawings, certainly the earlier ones, seem to have been made in the context of an informal academy, where artists would gather to draw from a life model. None can be considered direct studies for paintings by Jordaens, but the best of them, including the drawing under discussion, display the powerful realism and bold use of media that distinguishes the artist’s most accomplished works. Interestingly, the verso of our drawing depicts a study of a sheep in sanguine, as well as a study of a sheep's head in sanguine and black chalk, also by Jordaens (see illustration). Since the artist presumably kept the present sheet in his studio as study material for a longer period, it is possible that these studies can be dated to a later period in Jordaens' career, as their style seems to suggest.
