Figure incontournable de la photographie contemporaine japonaise, Nobuyoshi Araki est connu mondialement pour ses photographies de femmes ligotées selon les règles ancestrales du Kinbaku - l’art du bondage japonais -, pratique qui puise ses origines au XVe siècle. Cette exposition retrace cinquante années de son travail en plus de 400 photographies et compte parmi les plus importantes consacrées à Araki en France.
The second instalment of a series of collaborative exhibitions by GSA Photography students Jack McCombe and David Stinton, the series explores notions of perception and recognition, with close focus paid to the mode of representation and the materiality of an artwork.
This is one of six exhibitions featured in Glasgow Aye (G_Aye) Open House Festival 22nd-24th April.
Take a peek inside our exhibition catalog! Read the essays written by the curators. Learn about the caricaturist SEM, French caricature during La Belle Epoque and Colette Willy, author of GiGi.
Presented by the Gorman Rare Art Book Collection. Highlighting our recent acquisition, Sem au Bois.
Excerpt from Exhibition Essay by Nikki Otten, Art History PhD student and co-curator:
Sem revisited the subject of his first Parisian success in the Sem au Bois scroll. He drew the fashionable elite of France (and their laughable hangers-on) en route to Longchamp. The races were social events where central members of society were expected to put in an appearance. Sem adopted this obligatory parade down the Bois de Boulogne as an opportunity to gently mock the celebrities of his day, caricaturing members of the aristocracy, artists, politicians and socialites. Although the individuals were not identified in the chromolithograph, a weekly newspaper, L’Illustration, published a complete list of names in its October 5, 1907 issue. The names have also been penciled in on the Gorman Rare Art Book Collection’s copy of the scroll, possibly by a previous owner who transferred the list from L’Illustration.
This scroll also contains one carriage that is not included in the image reproduced in L’Illustration. Colette, the author of Gigi, is riding in a coach driven by her husband, Willy (Henry Gauthier-Villars). Colette is seated next to her mistress, the Marquise Mathilde de Morny. Missy, as she was known, was notorious for dressing in men’s clothing and seducing a number of women. The press assiduously documented her affair with Colette, and the pair roused a scandal when they kissed onstage as part of a pantomime production at the Moulin Rouge.
Our Gorman rare art book collection is featured in annual or biannual exhibitions held T.R. Andersen Gallery outside of the the James Ford Bell Library. Our winter exhibition will be about caricature. We mostly feature materials from Gorman and we complement with additional rare materials. L'Assiette au beurre is apart of our regular rare collection and will most likely be featured in our exhibit.
You are warmly invited to the private view of ‘for ever Amber’ at the Laing Art Gallery on Friday 26th June from 6pm til 8pm
In 1978 Henri Cartier-Bresson celebrated his 70th birthday with Amber Film & Photography Collective and a retrospective at Side Gallery, the group’s then new documentary photography venue in Newcastle upon Tyne. As a thank you, he sent a photograph inscribed “for ever Amber. 37 years later his words come to life in the first major retrospective for Amber’s remarkable collection.
This exhibition, developed in partnership with the Laing Art Gallery, was made possible through the support of Arts Council England and Heritage Lottery funding.
We hope you can join us in celebrating the launch of this long awaited exhibition.
