Rembrandt Bugatti. Emotions in Bronze
Rembrandt Bugatti was the younger brother of the engineer, Ettore, who designed the Bugatti vehicles. Rembrandt was a sculptor – among whose creations was the dancing silver elephant on the bonnet of the Bugatti Royale.0His work was shown at the Venice Biennale when he was just 19 and he was awarded the French Légion d’Honneur for art at 27. He won the admiration of Apollinaire, the great promoter of Picasso, and Hébrard, the foundry that acted as Bugatti’s gallery, also cast works by Degas and Rodin. But in 1916, at the age of 31, he committed suicide; his career cut short by illness, poverty, disappointment in love and the first world war. Now, almost a century after his death, his reputation is being restored by two exhibitions of his work; one at London’s Sladmore Gallery, the other at the Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin.0Exhibition: Sladmore Gallery, London, UK (09.10-29.11.2013) / Alte Nationalgalerie, Berlin, Germany (28.03.-27.07.2014).

A Private Passion
"For the Winthrop collection's international debut exhibition, curators at the Fogg Art Museum of the Harvard University Art Museums, headed by Stephan Wolohojian, organized the selection and invited more than sixty specialists to write on artworks in their particular area of expertise. Works include such highlights in their creator's oeuvre as Jacques-Louis David's sketchbooks for The Coronation of Napoleon and the Crowning of Josephine, Theodore Gericault's Mutiny on the Raft of the Medusa, Vincent van Gogh's The Blue Cart, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres's Odalisque with the Slave, William Blake's illustrations for the Divine Comedy, Dante Gabriel Rosetti's Blessed Damozel, and James Abbott McNeill Whistler's Nocturne in Blue and Silver. In addition, an essay by Wolohojian provides a fascinating and informative description of Winthrop and the growth of his collection."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
