Abstract:
Sites et végétaux du Canada was an early photographic experiment in botanical illustration. Presented at the 1867 Paris exposition, the album’s 35 albumen prints were part of the Canadian displays. The photographs were a collaborative effort between Joseph-Charles Taché, Canada’s Executive-Secretary at the exposition; Louis-Ovide Brunet, a Catholic priest and botany professor at the Université Laval; and Livernois & Cie, a Québec City photography studio. Previous work has considered the album as the aesthetic accomplishment of Jules-Isaïe Benoît dit Livernois, excluding Taché and Brunet from the art historical narrative. In this paper, I consider the album’s political and botanical contexts, and viewership, to more clearly situate the album in the visual culture of early Canadian science. In its representation of Canadian landscapes and native-plant specimens, the album effectively employed photography to present Canada as a centre of cutting-edge scientific investigation.

Abstract:
Abstract Maria Vasilievna Iakunchikova designed three works of applied art and craft in a Neo-Russian style for the Russian section of the Paris “Exposition Universelle” of 1900—a wooden dresser, a toy village in carved wood, and a large embroidered panel. Yet, so far as the official record is concerned, Iakunchikova’s participation in the exhibition is occluded. Her name does not appear in the catalogue, for it was the producers, rather than the designers, who were credited for her works. Indeed, her presence might have been entirely unknown, were it not for several reports of the Russian display in the periodical press by her friend Netta Peacock, a British writer living in Paris. The invisibility of the designer in this instance was not a matter of gender, but it had consequences for women artists. In general, women were marginalized in the mainstream of the nineteenth-century Russian art world—whether at the Academy of Arts or in prominent groups such as the Peredvizhniki—and, as a result, enjoyed fewer opportunities at the Exposition. But the Neo-national movement, linked closely with the revival of applied art and the promotion of kustar industries, was one in which women’s art had space to flourish. And, in the so-called village russe at the Exposition, which featured a display of kustar art, by far the larger contribution was made by women, both as promoters and as artists. In this article, I examine Iakunchikova’s contribution to the Exposition within a broader context of female artistic activity, and the significance of the Russian kustar pavilion for a gendered history of nineteenth-century art.

Abstract:
Spanish estudiantina plucked string ensembles achieved immense popularity in the last two decades of the nineteenth century and were an important catalyst in the creation of the sonority of a variety of European and American popular musics. Such ensembles had precedents in Spanish student groups dating back to the Renaissance and the rondallas (or groupings of plucked instruments) that were associated with popular outdoor serenades. However, the modern estudiantina movement can be traced back to 1878, and was consciously framed as a modern historical construct. A large grouping of youths and former students, donning Renaissance student dress, decided to form a society to visit Paris during Carnival, on the eve of the 1878 Exposition Universelle. They took Paris by storm, performing in a variety of street settings, reinforcing the exotic stereotypes of serenading musicians associated with Spain, and bringing to life historical notions of the minstrel. In the decade that followed, the European performance contexts of the estudiantinas included theatres, outdoor venues and expositions, garden parties and salons – and they became fixtures of the music hall and the café chantant. This paper explores early English and French constructions of the estudiantina phenomenon, and how the groups were framed in the light of exotic street musics and prevailing tropes of Spain. It also examines how the outdoor performance settings of the estudiantinas were translated onto the theatrical stage.

AbstractIn 1900, the soprano Jeanne Hatto recorded a scene from Gluck's 1779 opera Iphigénie en Tauride for the Phono-Cinéma-Théâtre, an exhibit at the Paris Exposition Universelle that screened silent films manually synchronised with cylinder recordings. Recently restored and digitised by the Cinémathèque Française and the Gaumont Pathé Archives, Hatto's film affords us a glimpse into the revitalising force ascribed to female performers around the turn of the century: the ability to bring ancient statues – and antiquity itself – to life through physical movement. Through their embodiment of ancient Greek figures on stage and in visions animées, prima donnas laid claim to a form of corporeal authority that had all but disappeared from the French stage over the preceding century.

Abstract:
Abstract The 1878 Exposition Universelle in Paris is known for the substantial scope and content of its Islamic art displays ‐ the most extensive offered to an international audience by that date. A renewed analysis of this influential event demonstrates that it featured a network of distinct ‐ though often interlinked ‐ installations that come under the label of 'Islamic art', situated across a complex site. These included national initiatives, such as L'Égypte des Khalifes, sponsored by the ruling Khedive of Egypt, and the purpose-built Pavillon de la Perse, constructed by master-builders dispatched from Qajar Tehran. Commercial undertakings included a display of Vincent Robinson's Iranian carpets in the British India section. At the Galerie orientale curated by Albert Goupil in the Palais du Trocadéro, other objects loaned from private collections were presented. Common across these various displays was persuasively staged architecture. This article argues for the centrality of architectural salvage and reconstruction in the early history of private and public displays of Islamic art. By examining the different individuals who created both L'Égypte des Khalifes and the Galerie orientale, article proposes a new assessment of an elite domestic culture, pursued by affluent bachelor aesthetes of the period, with many modern resonances.

Abstract:
Abstract This article focuses on the French reception of Russian Arts and Crafts in the early 1900s. As a consequence, firstly, of the Russian display at the 1900 “Exposition Universelle,” and, secondly, of the increasing number of Russian exhibitions and other cultural events in Paris, French art periodicals and sections on art in the mainstream press contained many reports about the movement. Several writers expressed their opinion about Russian modern Arts and Crafts and participated in their promotion in France. The main purpose of the article is to shed light on those French critics who were responsible for this process of mediation and the way in which their discourses adopted a comprehensive approach to Russian Arts and Crafts experiments. It examines which artists and which exhibitions were particularly welcomed in around 1906; special attention is paid to Abramtsevo and Talashkino, and, therefore, to Maria Tenisheva.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay examines Russian artist Viktor Vasnetsov’s search for a new kind of prayer icon in the closing decades of the nineteenth century: a hybrid of icon and painting that would reconcile Russia’s historic contradictions and launch a renaissance of national culture and faith. Beginning with his icons for the Spas nerukotvornyi [Savior Not Made by Human Hands] Church at Abramtsevo in 1880-81, for two decades Vasnetsov was hailed as an innovator, the four icons he sent to the Paris “Exposition Universelle” of 1900 marking the culmination of his vision. After 1900, his religious painting polarized elite Russian society and was bitterly attacked in advanced art circles. Yet Vasnetsov’s new icons were increasingly linked with popular culture and the many copies made of them in the late Imperial period suggest that his hybrid image spoke to a generation seeking a resolution to the dilemma of how modern Orthodox worshippers should pray.

Abstract:
L'exposition universelle de 1867 à Paris permet d'examiner l'engouement français pour les expositions. Plusieurs groupes encouragent leur multiplication: les industriels, pour raison de stratégie commerciale; le gouvernement, après le traité de commerce franco-anglais de 1860, pour promouvoir sa politique économique; les élites, pour améliorer l'esthétique industrielle et renforcer la formation professionnelle. Frédéric Le Play, à la tête de la Commission impériale, met son expérience au service de l'organisation et fait apparaître des évolutions majeures: pavillons; ouverture à la question sociale; plus grande autonomie des exposants; développement du gigantisme et du spectacle. L'organisation est un succès; les résultats en sont plus ambigus. L'industrie française se modernise et domine toujours le secteur des arts industriels. Mais les progrès américains et allemands sont réels. Les idées sociales (patronage) rencontrent peu d'écho auprès des ouvriers
The 1867 world fair of Paris permitted to study a certain French craze towards industrial exhibitions. The following groups contributed to the event: industrials - for commercial and strategic reasons, the Government - promoting its economic policy subsequently to the free trade agreement of 1860 between Great Britain and France, the elite -intending to improve product designs and reinforce professional training. The organisation benefited from the experience of Frederic Le Play, head of the Imperial Commission, who contributed to major evolutions. These included pavilions, greater autonomy for exhibitors, working class concerns and the advent of large scale entertainment. The exhibition was an organisational success with mixed results. The French industry had been modernised and France was always the leading nation in arts and crafts. Nevertheless the USA and German states had shown to make rapid progress; Socil concerns of the paternalists had sadely little impact on workers

Abstract:
L’Exposition universelle de 1900 à Paris a constitué pour les acteurs du mouvement Art nouveau une rencontre unique par son envergure internationale. Si cet événement a longtemps été déconsidéré, il représente pourtant pour l’Art nouveau – appréhendé dans son acception internationale – un moment de confrontation et l’occasion, pour certains pays, de mettre en valeur leur modernité stylistique. La première partie de la thèse s’attache à comprendre les raisons de la présence de l’Art nouveau à l’Exposition, et donne une vision d’ensemble des édifices et objets d’art se rattachant au mouvement. Elle examine ainsi les enjeux artistiques, mais aussi politiques et commerciaux, que porte l’Art nouveau pour les pays participants. La seconde partie traite de la réception critique du mouvement par ses contemporains, en observant leurs réactions, diverses sinon opposées, selon les artistes et les nationalités représentées. En effet, par son caractère tantôt cosmopolite, tantôt nationaliste, l’Art nouveau est alors loin d’être perçu comme un mouvement homogène et l’Exposition suscite un ensemble de polémiques qui contribuent autant à le définir qu’à le discréditer. Enfin, la troisième partie étudie les conséquences à plus long terme de l’Exposition : en analysant les répercussions pour les artistes, l’entrée de l’Art nouveau dans les musées européens, les expositions suivantes, et les prolongements du débat artistique, elle cherche à évaluer la place de l’Exposition universelle dans l’histoire de l’Art nouveau. Un volume d’annexes réunit des plans et des vues générales de l’Exposition universelle, ainsi qu’un catalogue iconographique de plus de 800 numéros, illustrant l’Art nouveau présenté à l’Exposition dans les arts décoratifs et l’architecture
The 1900 Paris World’s Fair represented, for the artists of the Art Nouveau movement, an encounter unique by its international audience. Though this event was overlooked for a long time, it was nevertheless a moment of confrontation and the occasion, for some countries, to showcase their stylistic modernity. The first part of the dissertation endeavours to understand the reasons of the Art Nouveau presence at the Fair and gives an overview of the buildings and the decorative art objects which can be linked to this style. It examines the artistic, but also political and commercial stakes of Art Nouveau for each country. The second part examines the critical reception of Art Nouveau by its contemporaries, observing their diverse or even antagonistic reactions, according to the artists or the nationalities. Indeed, alternately cosmopolitan and nationalist, Art Nouveau was then far from being perceived as a homogeneous movement, and the Fair sparked a series of debates that contributed as much to define it as to discredit it. Finally, the third part studies the long-term consequences of the Fair: by analyzing the repercussions on the artists’ careers, the admission of Art Nouveau in European museums, the following exhibitions and the continued artistic debate, this part aims at assessing the place of the Fair in the history of Art Nouveau. A volume of annexes gathers maps and general views of the Fair, along with a catalogue of more than 800 entries, illustrating the Art nouveau works exhibited in decorative arts and architecture

Abstract:
Selon une opinion communement admise, l'oeuvre de debussy a ete profondement marquee par la musique javanaise a l'exposition universelle de 1889. Si l'on regarde de plus pres, aucun ouvrage ne prend la peine d'analyser avec serieux cette supposee evidence. Ce travail a pour ambition, dans une premiere partie, d'apporter la preuve de cette influence. Dans une seconde partie nous quittons debussy afin de montrer qu'a sa suite bon nombre de compositeurs francais vont porter une attention toute particuhene a la musique de gamelan. Bien que jamais demontree, l'admiration de debussy pour java est reconnue depuis fort longtemps. En revanche, elle est rarement evoquee a propos de ravel. S'il est vrai qu'elle ne bouleverse pas de facon aussi radicale sa musique, le souffle du gamelan est cependantomnipresent dans laideronnette imperatrice des pagodes. Nous avons consacre quelques pages a l'etude de cette oeuvre et tente de montrer que de nombreux parametres musicaux relevent de techniques extra-europeennes. Si java marque les esprits de debussy et ravel, les artistes francais, a partir des annees 30, vont plutot tourner leurs regards vers bali. Cette nouvelle orientation s'explique par uncertain nombre de raisons a la fois politiques et esthetiques sur lesquelles nous avons apporte quelques eclairages. Nous abordons des oeuvres de messiaen, jolivet, varese, boulez, dutilleux, mache, eloy, aperghis. Nous n'avons nullement cherche a etablir un catalogue complet de compositeurs francais ayant de pres ou de loin un rapport avec la musique balinaise. Notre choix s'est plutot dirige vers un questionnement des materiaux employes par chacun d'eux afin de degager les elements qui relevent de techniques indonesiennes. Bien que notre approche ne soit pas de nature ethnomusicologique, nous avons juge opportun de placer en annexe certains complements d'informations notamment un chapitre sur les instruments, illustre par des photographies que nous avons realisees a java ou bali
According to a widely-accepted idea, debussy's work was deeply influenced by javanese music at the universal exhibition of 1889. After closer study, it can be noted that no thorough analysis of that supposedly obvious statement has ever been done. In a first part this work aims at bringing the evidence of that influence. In a second part we leave debussy in order to show that, in his wake, a fair number of french composers paid a particular attention to gamelan music. Although it has never been. Demonstrated, debussy's admiration for java has been acknowledged for a long time. However this is rarely mentioned as far as ravel is concerned. Though it does not affect his music in such a drastic way, yet the gamelan influence is omnipresent in laideronnette imperatrice des pagodes. We have devoted a few pages to the study of this work and attempted to demonstrate that a lot of musical parameters pertain to extra-european techniques. If java left a mark on the minds of debussy and ravel, from the 1930's trench artists rather started looking toward bali. This new trend can be explained because of certain number of reasons - both political and esthetic - into which we have given some insight. We deal with works of messiaen, jolivet, varese, boulez, dutilleux, mache, eloy, aperghis. We have not in the least attempted to set up a complete catalogue of trench composers connected with balinese music. We have chosen to study the materials used by each of them in order to single out the elements pertaining to indonesian techniques. Althought our approach is not of an ethnomusicological nature, we have thought appropriate to include further information particularly a chapter on the instruments, illustrated by photographs that we have taken in java and bali

Abstract:
On the basis of the art and architectural displays at the 1878 Exposition Universelle Internationale à Paris, this thesis investigates the conflicting claims of nationalism; the late nineteenth-century tensions between tradition and modernity; and the disparities between the intentions of the organizers and the perceptions of the visitors. Creating connections between methodological and theoretical issues of interest to art history and museum studies, the argument explores further and refines our understanding of what has been constitutive of Exhibitions. This thesis takes the 1878 Exposition Universelle Internationale à Paris as its focus, in order to further appreciate the extent to which Exhibitions were able to influence their visitors’ minds and bodies. It scrutinizes a wide range of material generated as part of the national participation of the United Kingdom to this event in specific case studies for both breadth and depth of understanding. The examination of material published in 1878 newspapers provides evidence of a critical gaze within the Exhibition boundaries. International and universal Exhibitions have been significant events in producing and conveying various messages about diverse topics to unprecedentedly large audiences. Their rich content entailed the production and consumption of diverse experiences and meanings beyond attempt of controlling bodies and behaviours. The study of the British participation in the 1878 International Street or Rue des nations uncovers the tensions between symbols, taste and technology in architecture. Original research in the archives of the Royal Academy of Arts, London, gives a particular insight in the role of a key institution in the preparation of a national visual arts exhibition in the 1878 Paris Exposition. The examination of the reception of a particular artwork provides a useful counterpoint to these first institutionally-oriented analyses. Focusing on W. P. Frith’s The Railway Station (1862) offers a different perspective to understand the way a vast array of contemporary meanings could impact the reception of a particular work. The investigation of the critical reception of British paintings in 1878 France emphasizes the strength of cultural narratives beyond the specific vision for the Exhibition.

Abstract:
L’année 1900 marque la fin théorique du XIXe siècle, dont les dernières années se caractérisent encore trop souvent dans les esprits par l’opposition irréversible entre académisme et avant-garde. Si le premier est parfois synonyme de sclérose artistique et de peintres vieillissants, la seconde est toujours considérée de nos jours comme victime du système officiel des Beaux-Arts, ne trouvant de salut que dans les réseaux parallèles constitués par les galeries et marchands d’art. L’étude des expositions de peintures ayant eu lieu à Paris au cours de l’année 1900 tend à revenir sur ce présupposé. Les manifestations organisées relèvent de différentes structures, qu’il s’agisse de l’Exposition universelle, du Salon de la Société des Artistes français ou des marchands d’art indépendants néanmoins, toutefois l’analyse approfondie du mode de fonctionnement et du contenu des expositions permet de mettre en lumière les différentes passerelles qui existent à la fin du siècle entre la sphère officielle et la sphère mercantile. C’est donc en confrontant l’intégralité des expositions ayant eu lieu dans la capitale au cours de l’année 1900 que cette thèse propose de rendre compte de la complexité du monde artistique parisien à cette époque, des multiples facettes de l’école picturale française, et surtout de la perméabilité entre académisme, modernité et avant-garde
The year 1900 marks the theoretical end of the 19th century, the last years of which still too often translate in people’s mind to irreversibly opposing Academism and Avant-garde. While the first one is sometimes synonymous of artistic sclerosis and ageing painters, the latter is still considered nowadays as a victim of the Fine Arts official system, finding its salvation only in parallel networks operated by galleries and art dealers. The study of painting exhibitions which took place in Paris during the year 1900 tends to go back on this presupposition. The shows are put together by different structures such as the Universal Exposition, the Salon of the Société des Artistes français or independent art dealers, yet a thorough analysis of their organization and content brings to light the various footbridges that exist between the official and the mercantile spheres at the turn of the century. It is thus by confronting the entirety of the Parisian painting exhibitions in the year 1900 that this thesis offers to render the complexity of the Parisian artistic world of the time, the multiple faces taken on by the pictorial French school, and above all the permeability between Academism, modernity and Avant-garde

Coubertin avait souhaité organiser les premiers Jeux de l’ère moderne à Paris en 1900 dans le cadre de l’Exposition universelle ou en relation avec elle. Mais dès janvier 1894, le Commissaire général de cette Exposition universelle, Alfred Picard, a rejeté sa proposition, préférant organiser des concours d’exercices physiques et de sport sous le contrôle du comité d’organisation de l’Exposition, privant ainsi Coubertin des soutiens qui lui auraient permis d'organiser les Jeux olympiques. Il ne restait alors plus au président du CIO qu’à sauver les apparences, afin d’assurer la survie du mouvement olympique naissant. Il y a si bien réussi que le mythe des Jeux olympiques de 1900 perdure jusqu’à nos jours, entretenu, il est vrai, par le CIO lui-même.

But from January 1894, Alfred Picard, the World Fair General Commissioner, rejected his proposal, rather choosing to organize physical exercises and sport competitions, thus depriving Coubertin of the supports who would have allowed him to organize Olympic Games. Therefore the only solution left for the IOC President was to keep up appearances, in order to ensure the survival of the rising Olympic movement. He made it so well that the myth of the 1900 Olympic Games still goes on, a myth preserved by the IOC itself.

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse a pour objectif de retracer l’histoire transnationale de l’Équateur et de la France de 1875 à 1929, période d’échanges scientifiques, culturels et politiques qui déterminent la structure des pratiques du collectionnisme « amérindien » et du phénomène muséal dans ces deux nations. L’enquête historiographique dans différents fonds archivistiques et muséaux de l’Équateur et de la France a permis d’éclaircir les étapes constitutives à la formation des collections scolaires, municipales et ethnographiques par des agencies différentes – voyageurs, scientifiques, ou diplomates – qui opèrent au nom de la science, de la patrie et des nouvelles dynamiques capitalistes. Ces réseaux de sociabilité développés entre les savants transnationaux ont permis de distinguer ensuite des acteurs considérés comme secondaires (à savoir le paysagiste Édouard André ou le huaquero éclairé Alcides Destruge), d’identifier des collections « perdues » (d’Auguste Cousin, de Dominique-Vivant Denon, et notamment le Trésor de Cuenca) et de constater l’influence muséale entre l’Équateur et la France lors de la mise en œuvre des musées scolaires, municipaux et ethnographiques. Les objets collectés sont ainsi pensés comme des sources documentaires qui structurent le développement de la science globale et de la construction des États-nations modernes. Ce sont les élites franco-équatoriennes qui – motivées par leurs intérêts économiques, politiques et nationalistes – se chargent de présenter lors des expositions universelles de Paris la culture matérielle de la nation sous le prisme du discours colonial. Les nouveaux musées qui sont créés par la suite vont véhiculer cette image d’un pays exotique (sauvage et incasique) qui est diffusée jusqu’au siècle suivant en tant que représentation objective de la modernité occidentale
The purpose of this thesis is to retrace the history of the transnational exchange between Ecuador and France from 1875 to 1929. This was a period of scientific, cultural and political exchange that determined the structure of the practices for collecting Indigenous objects, and the beginning of the museum phenomenon in these two nations. The historiographic survey of various archival and museum collections in Ecuador and France has made it possible to shed light on the nascent stages of the formation of school, municipal and ethnographic collections by different agencies (travelers, scientists, or diplomats) that were operating in the name of science, their homeland, and the new capitalist dynamics. These social networks that developed between the scholars of these two nations made it possible to distinguish between actors that were considered secondary (namely the landscape architect Édouard André or the huaquero éclairé Alcides Destruge), to identify “lost” collections (such as the collections of Auguste Cousin, Dominique-Vivant Denon, and the Trésor de Cuenca), and to analyze the influence between Ecuador and France during the stages in which the school, municipal and ethnographic museums were being set up. Thus, the artefacts that were collected are considered as documental sources that contributed to order the development of global science and the construction of modern nation-states. The Franco-Ecuadorian elites that were motivated by their economic, political and nationalist interests were responsible for presenting national material culture through the prism of the colonial discourse at international exhibitions in Paris. The new museums that were subsequently created would convey this image of an exotic country (savage and Incan) that will be presented as an objective representation of Western modernity until the following century

Abstract:
Résumé: À la suite de l’exposition de Paris 1925, le peintre René Guiette demande à LC de lui construire une maison avec atelier à Anvers. Ce bâtiment superbe existe encore, le seul témoignage de LC construit en Belgique! LC vient pour la première fois à Bruxelles en 1926 pour donner une conférence. Après une deuxième conférence en 1928 il reçoit une commande de Jean Canneel-Claes pour une maison, publiée par Le Corbusier en 1929 comme « Maison pour M. X à Bruxelles ». En 1930, il est présent à Bruxelles pour le congres CIAM. En 1933, LC participe au concours pour la Rive Gauche d’Anvers. En 1938 on lui demande de participer à l’ exposition de Liège en 1939, mais rien n’est construit. LC est présent à l’exposition Universelle de Bruxelles 1958 avec le pavillon exceptionnel pour Philips. Après l’expo, Le Poème Electronique est démoli. Keywords: LC 5xBelgique, Stynen & De Meyer, deSingel, Riverside Tower. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/LC2015.2015.896
