C ollecting Matisse and Modern Masters: The Cone Sisters of Baltimore May 06, 2011 - September 25, 2011 Featuring over 50 works of art—by Matisse, Picasso, Gauguin, Renoir, van Gogh and more—from The Baltimore Museum of Art’s world-renowned Cone Collection, this exhibition focuses on the remarkable vision of two Jewish sisters and collectors, Dr. Claribel and Miss Etta Cone of Baltimore, and the personal relationships they formed with artists such as Matisse and Picasso, as they shaped their extraordinary collection Henri Matisse fondly called Dr. Claribel and Miss Etta Cone “my two Baltimore ladies.” The two Cone sisters began buying art directly out of the Parisian studios of avant-garde artists in 1905. Although the sisters' taste for modern art was little understood—critics disparaged Matisse at the time and Pablo Picasso was virtually unknown—the Cones followed their passions and amassed one of the world’s greatest art collections including artworks by Matisse, Pi

Image
About us A ffordable Art Fair Past and Present Twelve years ago, Will Ramsay changed the model of the traditional art fair by creating the Affordable Art Fair, where contemporary art is accessible to all. Now in ten locations around the world, with the upcoming L.A. fair being the eleventh, Affordable Art Fair proves that you do not need to be an art expert or a billionaire to have original works of art by living artists in your home or office.  With the fair taking place in  Amsterdam (spring and fall), Bristol, Brussels, London (spring and fall), Los Angeles, Melbourne, Milan, New York (spring and fall), North London, Singapore, and Sydney, over $270 million worth of art has been sold at the fairs. The success of the brand continues with the estimated millionth visitor to the Affordable Art Fair expected in 2011. MORE INFO http://www.affordableartfair.us/newyorkcity/visiting-aaf.html

Art Karen Rosenberg Bob Dylan, painter? The grizzled singer-songwriter has been making art since the 1960s, often on tour, but he only recently started to exhibit these works, and he’s never shown them publicly in New York, until now. On Tuesday the Gagosian Gallery opens  “BOB DYLAN: THE ASIA SERIES”  at its Madison Avenue branch. The series, described as a “visual journal,” will include scenes from Mr. Dylan’s recent trips to China, Vietnam, Japan and South Korea. Dylanologists may find less to parse in these sketch-like, vaguely Expressionist paintings of local sights and personalities, than in his poems and lyrics, though works like “Opium” (which shows a woman in a pink robe lounging in a cluttered interior) and “Le Belle Cascade” (a Tokyo amusement-park scene that nods to Manet) veer from the standard tourist itinerary. The paintings from China, where Mr. Dylan made his first appearance last spring and where he was criticized for a timid set list, should be especially interesting

THE STYLEMAKERS by Mo Amelia TEITELBAUM

Image
Mo Teitelbaum   0 Avis Philip Wilson Publishers, 2011 - 260 pages Following a BA Hons degree in French and an MA in South Asian studies, Mo Teitelbaum found herself in Paris in the early 1970s, engaged in research for a PhD on the history of French Indochina. One single event then made her change focus as a historian - a meeting with Eileen Gray. The feature article she subsequently published in the Sunday Times Magazine on the ninety-six-year-old designer, was the very first to reach a mass readership. Major museum exhibitions on Eileen Gray followed. Concerned now that other extraordinary lives and talents may have been overlooked, and certainly never made available to such a readership, Mo Teitelbaum now dedicates herself to retrieving 'lost' histories to present to a wider public. Six years of research in South America have resulted in The Stylemakers - another history that was lost to a wider public. In Paris in the 1920's a new style was born, rejecting
