Cinquini, Philippe. "Les artistes chinois en France et l’Ecole nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris à l’époque de la Première République de Chine (1911-1949) : pratiques et enjeux de la formation artistique académique." Thesis, Lille 3, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017LIL30003/document.
Full textThe presence of Chinese artists in France during the first half of the Twentieth Century was an exceptional and enduring phenomenon at the National School of Fine Arts of Paris (École nationale des Beaux-Arts de Paris). Based on the analysis of the documents from the French National Archives, the number of Chinese students was so substantial that it deserves to be called as the 'Chinese phenomenon at the École des Beaux-Arts'. Between 1914 and 1955, more than 130 Chinese students enrolled at the 'Galeries' (preparatory training in drawing) and at the painting and sculpture studios called 'Ateliers'. This situation at the École des Beaux-Arts essentially reflected the movement of Chinese artists in France and more widely in the West. It played an important role in the changing field of the modern Chinese art, socially, technically and artistically ,through a process of "Cultural Transfer" and was made possible by the privileged relationship between France and China at the beginning of the Twentieth Century (the "Dialogue between two Republics"). Nevertheless, the École des Beaux-Arts also became an area of competition between the various modern Chinese artistic tendencies, as many leaders of different groups studied at the workshops of the École des Beaux-Arts. Amongthem, Xu Beihong (1895-1953), who developed a coherent social and artistic strategies, was especially significant. Xu received fundamental academic artistic training at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Xu’s experience, enriched by his mastery of academic drawing, artistic anatomy and history painting, made his artistic production unprecedented in many respects of Chinese art, in oil and in ink. In addition, after a consensual period from the 1910s to the 1920s, it seems that from the 1930s, the Chinese phenomenon at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris mainly fostered Xu’s central position in educational and artistic camps inFrance and China. This Chinese phenomenon at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, which is attached to academic training and to French academic art, was a dynamic element in the elaboration of artistic modernityin Twentieth Century China

Full textThe Grand Palais and the Petit Palais, first named the Palais des Beaux-Arts, were built with the pont Alexandre III for the Paris exhibition of 1900. These were not ephemeral realization, but the chief attraction of 1900: permanent monuments like the best known of Paris. The operation was a success for the general public. But historians of architecture quickly consider these monuments as school projects put here without reflection. Nevertheless, that's not what seems to show the important existing archives

Full textBased on the analysis of unpublished archives of two school competitions: the sketches contests of composition and the modeling figures contests (respectively created in 1816 and 1842), this study aims to bring forward enlightments on the global functioning of sculpture tutoring at the School of Fine Arts during the nineteenth century. Because of the generalized high hand on the fine arts program adopted by the new political power after the "restauration" that out in charge Quatremère de Quincy, new elected life-secretary of the royal academy of fine arts, the creation of contests in composition was favorably accepted by the sculptors, students and teachers alike contrary to the very suspicious painters who will be forced to comply to these new school exams by severe regulations. This research helps our understanding of the organization of numerous private workshops of sculpture (and painting) that flourished next to the school of fine arts, the excellency of some of them in view of their school success, the absolute high level of the academy over the school of fine arts, the limited number of sculptors students compared to the painters students, the long period of schooling cursus, the maintenance of classical contests and even note the technical and stylistic organization of the workshops at the school of fine arts

Full textJean-Louis Pascal was born into a modest family in Paris during the July Monarchy in 1837. He was to become one of the most important architects of the 2nd half of the 19th century. His artistic education took place under the Second Empire and was crowned in 1866 with the prestigious grand prix de Rome. His career began during the Third Republic and ended with the 1st World War. He died in 1920. Pascal studied at the École des beaux-arts under Jacques Étienne Gilbert and Charles Auguste Questel. His works reflect both the rationalist austerity of the former and the eclectic romanticism of the latter. It was however a third architect, Charles Garnier, who shaped his artistic temperament. “After Mr. Questel, Mr. Garnier made me what I am”, Jean-Louis Pascal liked to say. Considered an “eclectic” architect – a term he rejected – and accused of lacking originality, Pascal’s numerous, dense and extensive oeuvre includes the Paris National Library, of which he was in charge for thirty-seven years. There he created the second great reading room, the oval room. Jean-Louis Pascal was an official figure in the architectural sphere of the Third Republic. He was on every architecture jury and his work was awarded the highest distinctions. He directed one of the three major workshops of the period and taught many foreign students, particularly Americans. It can be said that he was partly responsible for the enthusiasm for the “Beaux-Arts” style that arose in the United States, starting with the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago

Full textIn 1881, an atelier (studio) was founded at the École des Beaux-Arts in Algiers. Up until 1940, programs, concours, as well as judgments and rewards have depended on masters and local juries. From 1940, the atelier has been regional and included the bosom of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. This is the only structure belonging to the French colonial empire to have been granted this status. While the evolution of architectural and urban ideas in colonial Algiers was the subject of much research, the history of architectural education in this city has meanwhile remained unexplored. This thesis comes therefore to lift the existing veil around the pedagogical model developed in Algeria. It examines in particular the period between 1909 and 1962. These chronological limits correspond to both a period that is better documented and to two important moments for the architectural institution. Indeed, the year 1909 marked the appointment of the first French architect born in Algeria as the head of the architectural studio. This advent is the starting point for a more structured and better organized teaching of architecture. As for the year 1962, it signaled the end of the French presence in Algeria and the birth of the Algerian school. The interest is to place the education provided at the studio of architecture in Algiers in relation to the pedagogical system of the Beaux-Arts in Paris, and to replace it in the broader context of the emergence of an architectural identity that is specific to the colony. This research, which converge the history of architectural education in France and the history of colonization, is notably built on the following questions: what form has the teaching of architecture in Algeria taken during the colonial period? Was the transplantation identical to the pedagogical model introduced by the Beaux-Arts in Paris, adaptation or rebuilding? What part has the regional dimension taken in the architectural education disseminated in Algeria? Through a comparative analysis between the pedagogy disseminated in Paris and in Algiers, this research shows that a structure forming in the art of building is inseparable from the territory that houses it, the population that attends it, and the political and cultural environment that surrounds it. Furthermore, this thesis contributes to updating the cultural and professionals exchanges that operate between France and its colony

Full textThe dissertation takes into consideration Lebas’ teaching experience at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris in a period characterized by the definition of methods and instruments necessary for a research meant as a deep reflection on modern architecture. Lebas’ teaching fits in a project aiming at a systematic classification of different periods and styles in the history of architecture. Basing himself upon sources and references, he defines and precisely identifies the professor of history of architecture’s role and the value of this discipline. The study of Lebas’ « entretiens » made an interpretation possible of his effort to write and illustrate a history of architecture. This interpretation also revealed the aspects of a multiple and extended teaching based on the integration of theorectical precepts and practical rules deduced from an absolute ancient model and from project experience, which is the expression of the search for a « new architecture »

Full textThe Restoration is a pivotal period for art criticism in France. Press Jaws are loosened and the number of periodicals raises significantly. The artistic practice itself faces profound changes: the progressive questioning of the hierarchy of pictorial genres and of imitation theory, the assertion of a romantic sensitivity and the evolution of the status of artists in society, etc. This thesis proposes a study of the critics, theirs writing practices and the most important artistic and aesthetic debates of the time. It draws upon a renewed corpus of articles on the fine arts published in the Parisian press of this period, taking into account not only Salons reviews but also other artistic events such as academic competitions, inaugurations of monuments, general articles on fine arts, etc. Following a tripartite structure, this study aims to put into perspective the major concerns of the criticism of the Restoration period. The study of the intertextuality of the critical texts as well as the main debates (prevalent subjects and sources of inspiration, romanticism, the tension between individual talent and French school) allows us to map the critics' various coexisting artistic concepts. The intense political debates of the time also have an impact on art criticism, and at times ideological motivations resonate strongly in the articles. Finally, the critics assert themselves as a necessary voice and as a regulator of the art world, claiming the right to judge not only the government's artistic policy but more generally ail the initiatives intended to promote arts and artists

Full textIn the nineteenth century Latin American painters were going to Europe in search of artistic perfection. Paris as the centre of modern art was one of the main destinations for intercontinental artistic migration. The artists from Latin American countries went to Paris to study in famous art schools and to participate in the Salon in order to prove their professional status and to begin their careers in the international arena. Many of them stayed in Europe, but they were usually ignored by French criticism and later, by modernist historiographies. These painters were pushed back to the periphery to which they belonged regardless of their geographical choices. The dissertation explores the trajectories of Latin American painters in Paris who participated in the Salons of the Société Nationale des Beaux-arts from 1890 to 1899 and revisits their position in the modern canon. The research starts with the general overview of the art system on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean and goes from the investigation of artists’ places in national historiographies to the interpretation of their paintings. The multiple factors that shape the reception of the art from periphery are brought to light in order to see the painters erased from history and to find the ways to resist the domination of the master narrative in art history

Full textFrom the origin of World Fairs until the creation of the European secessions, the Paris Salon played a fairly significant role in the careers of hundreds of foreign painters. Avoiding aesthetic biases, the corpus of works, artists and texts studied traces the presence and the reception of foreign painting in the Paris Salon, from 1852 to 1900. The political and administrative history of the institution reveals the evolution of foreign painter status: from almost nonexistent at the beginning of the Second Empire, to a major issue at the end of the century, linked to the creation of the Société Nationale des beaux-arts. Risky and competitive, the Salon experience was a considerable challenge for all artists, both symbolic and commercial. Parisian careers of foreign painters, from their training studio to their exposition in the Salon, are less interpretable than for their French counterparts as an opposition between official and independent sphere; Fine Art system appears as wide open to the world and to the whole artistic field. The international dimension of Paris exhibitions had a profound impact on the evolution and the definition of French art who quickly built a hegemonic pattern on it. Unlike the nationalist partitioning of world fairs, the melting of the Salon is an image of the unity and diversity of European creative forces. The national expression is part of a community of approaches and expressions, and Arts of Europe cannot be categorized into national schools nor the style categories of the modernist tradition

Full textThe Fine-Arts Teaching System, founded by the École des Beaux-Arts of Paris in its Architecture Course, which lasted from 1671 to 1968, is considered to be a supreme asset of cultural and symbolic importance in which the traditional school, related to the French capitalist state, was expressed. Furthermore, it is also understood to be cultural capital which merits preservation. The history of the École, the world's most famous institution for the teaching of art and which has influenced the installation of ramifications of its model in various countries, reveals a series of crises which culminated with the final catastrophe in 1968, when the Architecture Course was closed and the competition for the Great Prize of Rome was discontinued. Throughout its history the École always maintained its base in relationships with powerful groups related to the nobility and influenced by prestige, status, pleasure and knowlege. These facts serve to explain the political and cultural processes which have preserved the important relevance of the Fine-Arts Teaching System. Power is an intrinsic factor of art and of the understanding of its essence, originality and knowledgepower, and this is evident and explicit in the formation of the systematised enlightenment of Graeco-Roman classicism conceived in the neoclassic style and practised rightly by the famous French school. The "rigid"classic rules, on being systematised, became powerknowledge to benefit primarily the aristocracy, the monarchical State and afterwards the interests of an authoritarian State regime. The closure of the Architecture Course and the extinction of the Great Prize of Rome Competition , while confirming the phenomenon of genealogical power, exposes the problem of non-flexibilisation of Education in the political and cultural areas in order to defend, above all, the knowledge-power of art in the classic model of Fine-Arts. The industrialisation and growth of the cities and the emergence of new social and political structures, together with their "utopias", are facts which have changed the positive power of classic works to that of technology and of engineering, thus giving origin to modern archtecture. These developments were not considered in relation to the principles of Graeco-Roman culture, which were founded in humanism as represented in the poetry of expression of sensitivity and of emotion. In this respect research indicates defence of the educational principles of a school interested in art and archtecture and focused on the potential it has for the communication of knowledge. In such connection, it should be remembered that schools in general, obsessed as they are by the spirit of commercial objectivity, tend to favour the power-knowledge attitude. Nevertheless, the knowledge-power of the Fine-Arts Teaching System can be saved and should be appreciated as the basic teaching value of a school disinterested in power without knowledge, which is to say power that is not intrinsically art.
O Sistema de Ensino Belas-Artes, instituído pela École des Beaux-Arts de Paris no Curso de Arquitetura de 1671 a 1968, é compreendido como um capital simbólico e cultural valioso, no qual a tradicional escola, relacionado ao Estado capitalista francês, se expressou. A história da École a mais famosa instituição de ensino da arte do mundo, que influenciou a criação de ramificações de seu modelo em vários países revela um processo de crises que culminaram no abalo fatal de 1968, no qual aconteceu o fechamento do Curso de Arquitetura e a extinção do concurso O Grande Prêmio de Roma. Essa história teve sempre como base as relações de poder, vinculado à nobreza, ao prestigio, ao status, ao prazer e ao saber, e serve para explicar os processos políticos e culturais que operaram a pertinência do Sistema de Ensino Belas- Artes. O poder intrínseco à arte, do saber na sua essência e originalidade, saber-poder, evidencia-se e explica-se na construção do conhecimento sistematizado do classicismo grecoromano, concebido no estilo neoclássico, operado justamente pela famosa escola francesa. Os rígidos cânones clássicos, ao serem sistematizados, tornaram-se poder-saber para servir primeiramente à aristocracia, os quais compunham o Estado monárquico, e depois aos interesses de um Estado autoritário. O fechamento do Curso de Arquitetura e a extinção do concurso O Grande Prêmio de Roma, ao confirmarem o fenômeno do poder na sua genealogia, expõem o caráter do problema da não flexibilização do Ensino no campo político e cultural, a fim de defender, sobretudo, o saber-poder da arte no modelo clássico das Belas- Artes. A industrialização e o crescimento das cidades, o surgimento de novas estruturas sociais e políticas, bem como suas utopias, são fatos que deslocaram o poder de construção de obras clássicas para o da tecnologia e da engenharia, dando assim origem a arquitetura moderna. Esses acontecimentos, não foram refletidos e relacionados aos princípios da cultura greco-romana, fundados no humanismo e implicados na poética da expressão do sensível e na emoção. Assim, a pesquisa aponta a defesa do processo educacional de uma escola interessada na arte e na arquitetura no sentido do potencial que elas tem de instaurar o saber, considerando que as escolas, de modo geral, tendem a ser interessadas no poder-saber, envolvidas, como são, pelo espírito da objetividade mercantilista. Todavia, o saber-poder no Sistema de Ensino Belas-Artes pode ser resgatado e deve ser prezado como base, em uma escola de um ensino desinteressado do poder que não seja saber, isto é, que não seja da arte intrinsecamente.

Full textThe subject of this study is the transformation of history of architecture and of the historiographical conceptions between 1863, date of the pedagogical reform at the parisian ecole des beaux-arts, and 1914, date that signifies a break in teaching and publishing. From huyot to Magne, from Reynaud to Choisy, history of architecture aims more and more to become an independant matter. This research of autonomy means to define clearly the fields of inquiries, the objectives and particular methods. History of architecture refuses to provide only auxiliary knowledge to illustrate political or literary history, to be confined to the same existence as numismatical studies for example. Archeology, comparative anatomy and other sciences supply important models. But for the architects or engineers a major difficulty exists : they need to define the links between a scientific' history and the architectural pratice, searching desperately for the caracteristic style of their own century. The most important items of this transformation studied here are the aims and ideas of the authors, their analytical methods, their conception of classification and their manner of using images and illustrations

Full textDuring the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, not many Japanese artists settled in Paris. However, after the First World War, starting from 1920, a large number of Japanese artists arrived in France. In total two hundred and eight Japanese artists appeared in Parisian Salons during the decade between 1920 and 1929. Most of these artists choose Montparnasse district as their residence. In Paris those days, amongst artists who worked on oil painting called « yô-ga » we can distinguish three movements. The first circulated around Fujita Tsuguharu, a renowned artist who associated the Western painting and the traditional Japanese art. The second gathered a certain number of young artists, such as Saeki Yuzo, who were attracted by the Western painting and the modern painting of Montparnasse. The third movement was of an academic nature: as Kuroda Seiki did, artists were following the teaching of Paris Academies. Other artists choose the route of a more independent art, following the examples of Tanaka Yasushi, Hasegawa Kiyoshi or Oka Shikanosuke, but the number of these artists remains limited, same as those who practiced the technique of Japanese painting, i.e. « Nihon-ga », and also those who practiced sculpture, engraving, lacquer painting, and hangings. The result of going through the data of the documentation centres and photography funds in Japan and in France proves the importance of the presence of Japanese artists on the artistic scenes in Paris during the 1920’s and allows us to comprehend the motives and creations of these artists

Artists like Daniel Buren, Sarkis, and the writer Serge Fauchereau were teachers there. Until 1995, IHEAP welcomed young artists coming from all over the world. In the tradition of “cafés de Montparnasse”, institutions “d’avant-garde”, such as the Bauhaus and the Black Mountain College, this ephemeral institute experimented a new pedagogy far from traditional schools of fine arts. Working methods and teaching practices have been observed from archives and testimonies. Even more, the history of the institute gives the opportunity to study the real and imaginary issues of education and transmission of the art in contemporary era. At the present time when schools of fine arts deliberate and organize the third stage of LMD in accordance with Bologna process, the PhD presents an historical and critical analysis of a perfect precursor

Full textThis Ph. D. dissertation investigates images of Native Americans displayed at the Paris Salons and in the Fine Art sections of the Great Exhibitions of 1855, 1868, 1878, 1889 and 1900. My analysis starts with the first outbreak of the theme at the 1781 Salon and ends following its gradual dismissal at the beginning of the First World War. The body of artworks I analyze documents three main campaigns of representation marked by the history of Native Americans and Whites relations. These representations reveal an artistic figure both attractive and repulsive at the same time. The rhetoric of the disappearance of the “Noble Indian” alternates with degrading images of the “Savage Indians”. Our study reveals the origins of collective imagination and racial stereotypes that originate representations of “Indians”. But this iconography is also based on artists’ itinerancies and their migration to the West in order to meet their models. The artistic production of this small group of French and American artists can not be reduced exclusively to the two aesthetic patterns previously discussed. Their travels on the North American territory and their attention to Native American Art encourage new artistic horizons at the Paris venues. This thesis is also an opportunity to study the image of the Native American “Others” displayed in the competitive Fine Art sections of the Great Exhibitions. It brings out a discourse promoting the figure of the “Indian” to build an American art with its own aesthetic in response to French artistic influences
Montiège, Samuel. "L'Académie Julian et ses élèves canadiens : Paris, 1880-1900." Thèse, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/1866/5900.
Full textThis thesis examines the artistic relations between Canada and France at the end of the nineteenth century, and the legacy of the ‘ateliers libres’ of the Académie Julian within the Parisian arts network. Through a case study, it focuses on the experience of Canadian students at the institution between 1880 and 1900. A conscious desire to provide a detailed study of this art institution drawing upon its annals and various personal accounts underlies the recourse to testimonies by students and journalists of the time to describe the prevailing atmosphere at the Académie Julian as well as its general management, its origin, and the strategies adopted by Rodolphe Julian himself to shape his school into ‘the institution de rigueur’ for those who sought artistic training of the highest calibre. Along with the students themselves, the personality of Julian as well as that of Marie Bashkirtseff – considered to be the "visible" spokesperson of the Académie – are at the forefront of this research since these two individuals were the true ambassadors of the Académie. Rodolphe Julian, an exceptional entrepreneur, must be examined in his own right to provide an understanding of his complexity and to fully grasp the originality of his Académie. This research examines both the man and his school, which together enticed generations of students, including Canadian painters (curious amateurs and accomplished professionals alike) to acquire not only the technical know-how during their training at the Académie Julian but also earn accolades and awards (prizes, medals and distinctions) inextricably associated with a commercially successful artistic career in Canada. During that period, French art was highly valued by the dominant Canadian upper and middle classes eager to purchase portraits and landscapes to adorn their living rooms. Indeed, rigorous instruction based on the study of composition and nudes met students’ expectations and directly influenced training methods in their home country. As a result of their training, a large number of former Canadian students of the Académie Julian sought to perpetuate an art education system similar to that of the Académie Julian, thus enabling generations of artists to benefit from their transatlantic experiences as other artist-professors had done before them. The main thrust of this thesis is its contention that the progressive change in perception of the École des Beaux Arts towards recognition of the "ateliers privés" influenced training prerequisites, shifting the artist into an economic space, intertwining the arts with industry: the artist as entrepreneur capable of adapting and developing his discourse and production in response to market conditions. In Canada, the diversification of technical education and professional training favoured the French artistic model. For artists, studying in Paris was meaningful; it was also a means of enhancing their status. In addition to tracing the history of the Académie Julian and that of its founder, Rodolphe Julian, this thesis also seeks to identify the presence of Canadian artists in the Académie, and to highlight its contribution to the recognition of fine arts training and its interplay with the honorary system of the Salon, which the Académie and its instructors controlled, by favouring their students. This thesis comprises three chapters, each linked by an overarching theme: the French art education system. Defining the French artistic context from a Canadian perspective, Chapter 1 deals with painters who were compelled to cross the Atlantic. The first section outlines the training possibilities available to artists in Canada and the training network available to artists in the 19th century. In covering the topic of art education in a country where the French teaching model prevailed, key figures such as Napoléon Bourassa and Abbé Joseph Chabert, are cited. Curé Sentenne’s commission for Montréal’s Notre-Dame Sacré-Cœur chapel of the Notre-Dame Basilica illustrates the near necessity for Canadian painters to travel to Paris to pursue their artistic training and helps explain why the place of production was just as important for an artwork as it was for the artist. At that time the reputation of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, consolidated by the reform of 1863, made this establishment one of the most prestigious in the world. However despite restructuring efforts, the Académie remained out of touch with the times, and this favoured the rise of the ‘Académies libres’, the most famous of all being the Académie Julian. Chapter II is devoted entirely to the Académie Julian and its founder, an astute businessman and ‘petit maître de la peinture’. The study of the man himself, which has so far served as a backdrop to a more detailed study of the Académie reveals the innovative nature of his establishment particularly with regard to his decision to admit women to study in his studios. Aware of the prospects his school offered, he was willing to accommodate artists from all over the world. His strategies for the expansion of the Académie are analyzed as well as the role of Marie Bashkirtseff in this respect. Chapter III describes the motivations and preliminary apprenticeships, which encouraged the artists being studied here to pursue their education in Paris, specifically at the Académie Julian. The socio-economic context – perhaps the socio-linguistic as well, since they are interrelated – and the influence of a master of European training appear to be the deciding factors. The institution’s archives shed light on the registration of Canadian painters and the time they spent there. The entries in the records of the Académie along with various personal accounts make it possible to understand how this training institution was managed. Based on information retrieved from the archives, the time that Canadian painter Joseph Saint-Charles spent in Paris is used as a case study not only to link the artist to the Académie Julian but also to determine the strategies which enabled him to be recognized as a professional painter in France as well as in Canada where his successes were widely reported in the press. Although there is no record of Canadian women in the archives of the Académie Julian, their role is nevertheless analyzed, underlining the prevailing gender inequalities. In spite of certain disparities, for female artists the Academy nevertheless constituted a springboard for inclusion and recognition of their artistic practice, whether it was through acquiring a traditional academic apprenticeship where the mastery of drawing prevailed or by working “under the guiding hands” of acclaimed Masters of French painting. Although the validity of criticisms leveled by students against their school must be acknowledged, for most of them the real purpose of their enrolment was to prepare their future careers as professional artists, facilitate their rite of passage to the "Salon national des artistes français", thanks to the support of the Académie and its instructors, and be “emblazoned” with the ‘Julian trademark’.

Full textDuring the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, not many Japanese artists settled in Paris. However, after the First World War, starting from 1920, a large number of Japanese artists arrived in France. In total two hundred and eight Japanese artists appeared in Parisian Salons during the decade between 1920 and 1929. Most of these artists choose Montparnasse district as their residence. In Paris those days, amongst artists who worked on oil painting called « yô-ga » we can distinguish three movements. The first circulated around Fujita Tsuguharu, a renowned artist who associated the Western painting and the traditional Japanese art. The second gathered a certain number of young artists, such as Saeki Yuzo, who were attracted by the Western painting and the modern painting of Montparnasse. The third movement was of an academic nature: as Kuroda Seiki did, artists were following the teaching of Paris Academies. Other artists choose the route of a more independent art, following the examples of Tanaka Yasushi, Hasegawa Kiyoshi or Oka Shikanosuke, but the number of these artists remains limited, same as those who practiced the technique of Japanese painting, i.e. « Nihon-ga », and also those who practiced sculpture, engraving, lacquer painting, and hangings. The result of going through the data of the documentation centres and photography funds in Japan and in France proves the importance of the presence of Japanese artists on the artistic scenes in Paris during the 1920’s and allows us to comprehend the motives and creations of these artists
