Doisneau, Portraits d’artistes dont Utrillo, Picasso, Braque, Foujita, Despiau, Laurens, Arp, Léger, Dubuffet, Chaissac, Buffet, Lhote ou Duchamp
En ce domaine difficile de la création, Robert Doisneau apporte toujours une attention admirative et bienveillante à chaque personnalité, qu’elle soit amicale ou réservée, d’apparence ordinaire ou originale.
Le cliché saisit ainsi le visage, les mains ou quelques objets qui accompagnent le quotidien de l’artiste, rendant toute la fragilité de la rencontre avec le photographe. Il restitue le miroir d’une vie, ordonnée ou foisonnante, secrète ou publique. Par un détail révélateur, une lumière sur une fenêtre, la pénombre d’un entassement de tableaux retournés, il contribue à nous faire partager un moment d’intimité.
Doisneau, Portraits of artists
Angladon Museum
18 June to 11 November
50 photos and 40 artists : Utrillo, Picasso, Braque, Foujita, Despiau, Laurens, Arp, Léger, Dubuffet, Chaissac, Buffet, Lhote and Duchamp… will be displayed at the Angladon Museum in summer 2009.
This exhibition will not be displaying the iconic photographs that made Doisneau famous … it will be showing photographs rarely seen by the public, photographs that Doisneau took in the studios and workshops of the artists of his era. These face-to-face sessions were generally commissioned by editors at leading magazines such as Vogue or Le Point. The challenging environment of artistic creation is hard to capture on film. Here Robert Doisneau brings his insightful, admirative and compassionate eye, photographing the artists, whether outgoing and reserved in personality, ordinary or extravagant in appearance.
The photographs seize the face, the hands, or objects which are part of the artist’s everyday world – fully expressing the fragile encounter with the photographer. They hold a mirror up to the artist’s life – showing an ordered existence, or great exuberance, secret or public. Telling details – light on the window, the shade cast by a pile of canvases … bring the viewer into a close, fleeting relationship.
