Narcisse

Sunday 11 June 2017

A work, a tale

Sunday 11 June 2017

A work, a tale

“While drinking, seduced by the image of his beauty, he falls in love with an insubstantial reflection, he takes for a body what is a mere shadow.”

Ovid, Métamorphoses, Book 3, French translation by Joseph Chamonard (Paris, Garnier Flammarion, 1966)

This story relates the myth of Narcissus, inspired by the tales told by Ovid. Often represented in paintings and sculptures, discover the story of this mythical figure who fell in love with his own image. A short presentation of the plaster work by Paul Dubois and the subject therein represented follow this storytelling: a life-size figure, seemingly lost in thought and contemplation, with a flower at his feet…

Public: children aged 4 and older

Hands-on artistic workshops for younger visitors

Hair and beards serve to enhance the busts by Camille Claudel, as in Aurora and her portrait of Auguste Rodin. Inspired by these works, children model a bust in which features such as hair and beards embellish a face that often tends to disappear…

Hands-on artistic workshops for younger visitors

Children will make charcoal sketches of elements of Aurora and of Rodin’s portrait. The materiality of a head of hair, its organic aspect highlight the wonderfully smooth face, and inspire the budding artists in creating what could initially be a very personalized drawn portrait.

Artists in dialogue, or “I don’t copy, I seek inspiration”

Sunday 28 May 2017

Hands-on artistic workshops for families

Contemplating connections between the works of Camille Claudel and Auguste Rodin, two indisputably famous sculptors, will shed light on the creative process, particularly during the 19th century. To assimilate this nuance between “copying” and “drawing inspiration from” another’s work, parents and children work in pairs, with one partner starting from a work produced by the other. How may one benefit from another’s creation, while at the same time breathing new life into it?

A mineral, rocky, vertiginous… modelling

Sunday 23 April 2017

Hands-on artistic workshops for families

Sunday 23 April 2017

Hands-on artistic workshops for families

This skin, so smooth, of a face or body is magnified by a mineral shock of hair, by a rocky labyrinthine beard, by a vertiginous enlacing drapery…

Children and parents participating in this hands-on artistic workshop and contemplating works by Camille Claudel: do you still only see faces and bodies?

After an initial modelling in clay of some portion of the human body complemented by drapery, hair or a beard, you exchange your works with other members of the family for further inspiration. What new meaning or direction do you now lend the sculpture? Will your work be swallowed up by drapery, hair or a beard, features that are hardly of secondary importance? Will admirers be tempted to lose themselves in the sculpture’s depths and asperities?
