In Part 2 of our Impressionism series, we leave the floating world of Japan behind and step into the bustling studios, salons, and sun-drenched riverbanks of 19th-century France. This time, we meet the artists who dared to defy the rules (Monet, Morisot, Manet, Degas, Renoir, Cassatt) and the dealer, Paul Durand-Ruel, who bet everything on their vision. We'll explore how these painters broke with tradition to capture the modern world around them…and how their movement spread, against all odds, to American collectors, museums, and artists. ______ New episodes every month.

En el programa de hoy, se analiza cómo las ideas nuevas, en especial en el arte, enfrentan resistencia por parte de los cánones establecidos, tomando como ejemplo la historia del impresionismo. Se repasa el rechazo inicial sufrido por artistas como Monet, Degas y Renoir por parte del mundo académico y la crítica, y cómo con el tiempo lograron reconocimiento y popularidad. Se examina también el fenómeno social de la imitación en la apreciación artística y cómo hoy en día la tendencia es sobrevalorar propuestas mediocres para evitar parecer ignorante, lo que lleva a aceptar incluso obras absurdas. El programa concluye con una recomendación del libro "La historia del arte" de Ernst Gombrich, destacando su valor para entender el propósito de las distintas expresiones artísticas a lo largo del tiempo.

She exhibited her work alongside famed Impressionist artists Monet, Degas, and Renoir, among others, and was the only woman to be included in the first major show of Impressionist art in 1874. Despite the many limitations she faced as a female artist of her time, Morisot established herself as an integral member of the Impressionist group. She also modeled for a number of paintings by Manet, and though she was married to his brother, many believe that Manet and Morisot were engaged in a long-run secret affair.B.A. Shapiro is a New York Times best selling author.

Nous sommes en 1893 ou 1894, à Paris, rue Victor Massé, dans l'atelier d'Edgar Degas. C'est là que le peintre rencontre Paul Valéry qui n'est encore qu'un jeune écrivain arrivé depuis peu à la capitale. Degas, lui, est un vieil homme acerbe qui n'aime guère les littérateurs. Il n'empêche, entre ces deux-là, le soixantenaire et celui qui deviendra l'un des grands penseurs de son siècle, alors seulement âgé de vingt-quatre ans, naît une amitié durable. Deux ou trois ans plus tard, dans ses Cahiers, Valéry décrira son ami : « Un personnage singulier, grand et sévère artiste, essentiellement volontaire, d'intelligence rare, vive, fine, inquiète qui cachait sous l'absolu des opinions et la rigueur des jugements, je ne sais quel doute de soi-même et quel désespoir de se satisfaire (…) Degas plaisait et déplaisait. Il avait et affectait le plus mauvais caractère du monde, avec des jours charmants qu'on ne savait prévoir. Il amusait alors ; il séduisait par un mélange de blague, de farce et de familiarité, où il entrait du rapin des ateliers de jadis, et je ne sais quel ingrédient venu de Naples. » Partons sur les traces de celui qui, à bien des égards, un mal aimé : Edgar Degas… _______________________________________ Invitée : Anne Hustache, historienne de l'art.

Linda Tugnoli"Art Night"Rai5Art Night – Il volto e l'animaIndagine sul ritratto femminileL'intelligenza artificiale ha un problema con le donne, in particolare, con il modo con cui crea immagini che dovrebbero rappresentarle. Molti osservatori hanno notato che tende a generare, qualunque sia il “promt”, cioè la richiesta, donne troppo perfette, ipersessualizzate, preferibilmente dai tratti occidentali. Nei suoi dataset si sono depositati pregiudizi e bias preesistenti, impliciti nei milioni di immagini con cui è stata nutrita. Lo racconta il doc “Indagine sul ritratto femminile”, in onda mercoledì 21 maggio alle 21.15 in prima visione su Rai 5 per l'Art Night di Neri Marcorè.L'arte ha aiutato a forgiare quest'immagine archetipica del femminile? O potrebbe, invece, rappresentare un antidoto alla standardizzazione dei canoni estetici oggi in atto? Una storia del ritratto femminile è un viaggio che dalle Veneri preistoriche senza volto giunge fino al ‘900, in cui gli artisti hanno utilizzato il ritratto anche per esplorare tematiche di genere, identità e potere, a volte sfidando le convenzioni sociali e le aspettative riguardanti il “bel sesso”. Un viaggio che attraversa quindi numerose tematiche, dall'evoluzione dei canoni di bellezza femminile, al ruolo della donna nella società e nell'immaginario artistico e letterario maschile, alla nascita di un'arte “al femminile”, a una storia del costume. Giada Pistilli, responsabile dell'etica per una piattaforma di intelligenza artificiale franco-americana, Hugging Face, con sede a Parigi, punta il dito contro i limiti e i bias relativi all'immagine femminile, ipersessualizzata e stereotipata, nell'AI e nel mondo di Internet in genere. Per l'arte preistorica, dove dominano rappresentazioni femminili della fertilità e della maternità, si visita il Musée d'Archéologie Nationale in Francia, a St. Germain-en-Laye, intervistando Catherine Schwab, responsabile delle collezioni paleolitiche e mesolitiche, sulla celebre Dama di Brassempouy, forse il volto più antico nella storia dell'arte europea con i suoi 25.000 anni. Per l'arte egizia, Christian Greco, Direttore del Museo Egizio a Torino parla dei ritratti di due bellissime regine, Nefertiti e Tye. Luana Toniolo, Direttrice del Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Villa Giulia a Roma e Vincenzo Bellelli, Direttore del Parco Archeologico di Cerveteri e Tarquinia, vanno in uno straordinario viaggio attraverso le rappresentazioni femminili nell'arte etrusca, sottolineando il diverso ruolo sociale della donna nel mondo etrusco rispetto al mondo greco-romano. Fabrizio Paolucci, responsabile della Collezione delle Antichità Classiche delle Gallerie degli Uffizi, a Firenze, racconta la meravigliosa Giulia di Tito, un capolavoro della ritrattistica romana del II secolo d.C. Si indaga, inoltre, su un interessante fenomeno seicentesco, “Le stanze delle belle”, quelle “serie” o collezioni di ritratti femminili che riunivano tutte le esponenti delle famiglie nobili, con Francesca Cappelletti, Direttrice della Galleria Borghese a Roma, che a questo tema così particolare ha dedicato un libro, con Francesco Petrucci, conservatore del Palazzo Chigi in Ariccia dove si conserva una delle rarissime Stanze delle belle giunte fino a noi e Veronica Ambrosoli, responsabile dell'Ufficio Conservazione del FAI, Fondo Ambiente Italiano, che apre le porte dello straordinario Castello di Masino, nel Canavese, che ospita una collezione di belle donne francesi. Con Cristina Mazzantini, Direttrice della Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, a Roma, si arriva fino alle soglie della modernità analizzando il fondamentale cambiamento del ruolo delle donne nella società tra ‘800 e ‘900, evidente nei volti affascinanti di Modigliani, Klimt o di Boldini conservati alla GNAM. Grazie a un accordo di collaborazione con il prestigioso Museo d'Orsay, a Parigi, che ospita la più importante collezione di opere d'arte della seconda metà dell'ottocento e in particolare dell'impressionismo, Sylvie Patry e Leïla Jarbouai approfondiscono il cambiamento forse più importante per il ritratto femminile nell'era moderna: la conquista di uno spazio autonomo da parte di artiste donne come Berthe Morisot, tra i fondatori del movimento impressionista, grazie alle quali finalmente acquista diritto di cittadinanza nel mondo dell'arte lo sguardo delle donne sulle donne. Anche tra i pionieri della fotografia, più o meno negli stessi anni, si possono annoverare diverse donne, come per esempio Julia Margaret Cameron, che, secondo Federica Muzzarelli, docente di Storia della Fotografia all'Università di Bologna, colgono con sorprendente rapidità e originalità le potenzialità proprie del nuovo mezzo, forse approfittando proprio della loro marginalità rispetto al mondo ufficiale della cultura e dell'arte.Il documentario, scritto da Linda Tugnoli e prodotto da Mark in video in collaborazione con Rai Cultura, è stato girato in Italia e in Francia integrando in modo sperimentale le tradizionali tecniche di ripresa e di grafica con tecniche di animazione con intelligenza artificiale. Art NightIndagini sull'autoritrattoViviamo nell'era del selfie: l'ultimo decennio ha visto la costruzione di un nuovo io, idealizzato, esibito e condiviso sui social; dappertutto nascono musei del selfie che predispongono sfondi appositi perché non ci basta più collezionare immagini di noi nel mondo. Secondo alcuni, questa nuova identità digitale rischia di svuotarci della nostra interiorità. L'arte è un punto di osservazione privilegiato su questo aspetto del mondo contemporaneo. Lo racconta “Indagini sull'autoritratto”, in onda in prima visione per l'Art Night di Neri Marcorè mercoledì 28 maggio alle 21.15 su Rai 5.L'autoritratto ha uno statuto assolutamente particolare all'interno della storia dell'arte: si trova all'intersezione di almeno tre elementi centrali: l'artista, la sua arte e la sua persona, intesa nel doppio significato del personaggio pubblico che l'artista intende mettere in scena e dell'individuo con la sua verità, con i suoi tratti distintivi, fisiognomici e caratteriali. Il compito di creare un proprio volto che resterà per sempre può far vacillare l'artista più sicuro di sé. A volte le facce non sono giuste, non hanno l'aspetto che dovrebbero avere: Van Dick, autore di austeri ritratti di nobili e di reali, sembra un bambino biondo; Delacroix così appassionato, così romantico, ha due baffetti a spazzola sotto un naso un po' antipatico; Degas ha un'aria un po' imbambolata; Rembrandt, nella serie di autoritratti più formidabile della storia dell'arte, non riesce a decidersi nemmeno sul suo colore d'occhi o di capelli, ma ci rivela che l'identità individuale è mutevole, come sono mutevoli le alterne fortune della vita e i segni che lo scorrere del tempo lascia sul corpo.C'è differenza tra un selfie e un autoritratto? Questo è stato il punto di partenza di questo viaggio, a Parigi, insieme a Dominique Cardon, sociologo del Médialab dell'università di SciencesPo.Il documentario, scritto da Linda Tugnoli e prodotto da Mark in video in collaborazione con Rai Cultura, è stato girato in Italia e in Francia integrando in modo sperimentale tecniche di animazione con intelligenza artificiale alle tradizionali tecniche di ripresa e di grafica.Linda Tugnoli vive tra Roma – dove lavora come autrice e regista di documentari, soprattutto per la Rai – e la campagna sabina, dove abita in un casale con il marito, tre figli, un orto, una serra e svariati cani di grossa taglia che periodicamente devastano l'orto e la serra.

Before Monet painted water lilies or Degas sketched ballerinas, a wave was crashing in from the East. In this episode, we explore how Japanese woodblock prints—especially Hokusai's ‘The Great Wave off Kanagawa'—reshaped the way Western artists thought about space, subject, and form. From flattened perspective to everyday scenes, ukiyo-e wasn't just decorative—it was revolutionary. We'll unpack the rise of Japonisme, its deep (and sometimes uneasy) influence on Impressionism, and how one iconic wave helped turn the tide of art history. Today's image: Katsushika Hokusai, ‘Under the Wave off Kanagawa (Kanagawa oki nami ura),' (1830-32). Woodblock print; ink and color on paper.

Debussy and Ravel are often described as the prototypical musical impressionists. It is often said that the two composers are the closest equivalents to the artistic world of Monet, Renoir, Pisarro, Degas, and others. But both Ravel and Debussy (like Monet for that matter), vehemently rejected the term Impressionism, and they both felt that they were striking out on their own individual paths in their msuic. That didn't stop the public and critics from constantly comparing the music of these two shining lights of French music, despite the fact that Ravel and Debussy are actually quite different. Comparing Ravel and Debussy is a bit like comparing Haydn and Mozart. At first glance, there are many similarities, but if you look and listen more closely, Ravel and Debussy(like Mozart and Haydn) had totally different approaches, goals, and styles. All of the constant comparisons and attempts at making the composers compete with each other had a real impact on Debussy and Ravel. Initially they were friends and mutual admirers of each others work, but they slowly drifted apart over time until they stopped speaking to each other altogether. We'll talk about this complicated personal relationship, as well as looking at these differences in their music, not from a critical standpoint, but from the perspective of bringing out what is so wonderfully unique about their music. We'll also talk about Ravel's arrangements of two Debussy's greatest orchestral works: his two piano arrangement of Debussy's Nocturnes, and his piano 4 hands arrangement of the legendary Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun. Join us on another collaboration with G Henle Publishers!

The artist Degas suffered retina disease for the last fifty years of his life, switching from paint to pastel because the chalk lines were easier to see. Renoir had to have brushes placed between his fingers when arthritis made them clench like claws; and when surgery left Matisse immobile, he turned to collage, directing assistants to attach colored pieces of paper to a larger sheet on the wall. What followed in each case was a creative breakthrough: Degas’s Blue Dancers, Renoir’s Girls at the Piano, Matisse’s The Sorrows of the King, and other masterpieces. By adapting to their trial, beauty emerged from their infirmity. In a similar way, Paul wasn’t planning to visit Galatia during his early missionary journeys. An illness forced him there (Galatians 4:13). Whether it was the illness he mentions in 2 Corinthians 12:7, an eye problem (Galatians 4:15), or something else, we don’t know. But Paul sought a different climate, wound up in Galatia and, even though he was ill, started preaching. Ironically, the Holy Spirit performed miracles through him (3:2–5) and the Galatian church was born. This surprising outcome may never have happened without Paul’s illness. What trial have you faced, and how did it change the direction of your life? By refocusing your gifts, you too may see God bring beauty out of your infirmity.

Antonia Caicedo Holguín photographed by Imogen Forte. Antonia Caicedo Holguín (b. 1997 in Colombia) is deeply influenced by her hometown of Cali, Colombia, from the people who inhabit the city to the vibrant salsa music and dance culture of the region. By exploring everyday life, memory, and imagination, Caicedo Holguín chronicles her life, friends, and family. “A key component of my practice is the playfulness of writing narratives. The characters I build hold the charm, depth, and presence of literary protagonists.” Drawing inspiration from contemporary painters like Paula Rego and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, as well as old masters like Degas and Manet, her work often depicts fleeting moments of intimacy and moments of solitude. Often the subjects of Caicedo Holguín's paintings seem to be in a state of introspection, or lost in reverie. She works with a variety of materials, including oil paint and unconventional materials like coffee grounds, coffee dyes, natural Latin American pigments, and found objects. Caicedo Holguín received her Master of Arts in 2023 from the prestigious Slade School of Fine Art, at University College London in London, England. She has exhibited internationally, and has received the following awards and grants: The Olive Award, in recognition of art process experimentation, The Slade School of Fine Art, UCL, 2023, The Sarabande Foundation, Emerging Artist Fund, 2023, The Chelsea Arts Club Trust MA Materials and Research Award, 2022, and The Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Grant, 2021. She was a featured guest on the 250th episode of The Art Newspaper's podcast, The Week in Art, hosted by Ben Luke in 2023. She was featured in The Art Newspaper, in an article titled “Art stars of tomorrow? Four of my favourite artists from the Slade School degree show in London” by Dr. Chibundu Onuzo in 2023, and again in 2024 in the article “I commissioned an artist for the first time: here's what it taught me about what it really means to be a ‘collector'.” The artist lives and works in London, England.

Her portrait is still wowing the crowds at the National Gallery. Pop in to pay her a visit and decide for yourselves, what do you see at first glance? Is she jumping? We know more about her performances than her life, but there are moments when we can glimpse her, moving to London, appearing at the Royal Aquarium, getting married. A mixed race pocket rocket gymnast who performed as at Black Venus and one half of Les Deux Papillons. She was last recorded applying for a passport, on the brink, maybe, of a leap across the oceans into the unknown.

The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist, one of the most audacious art thefts in history, took place on March 18, 1990, when two men disguised as Boston police officers gained entry to the museum, subdued the guards, and stole 13 priceless works of art worth an estimated $500 million. Among the stolen pieces were masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Degas. Despite decades of investigation, including links to organized crime and several tantalizing leads, the stolen art remains missing, and the identities of the thieves—who were eventually named by the FBI—are now believed to be deceased. The case, still active, continues to captivate the art world as investigators pursue new leads, offering hope that the missing works may one day be recovered.(commercial at 7:36)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Nous sommes le 15 avril 1874, au 35 boulevard des Capucines à Paris, dans les studios du célèbre Nadar, photographe et écrivain. C'est là que se tient, durant un mois, ce qui deviendra l'une des plus fameuses expositions de l'histoire de l'art, celle qui donnera son nom à un mouvement révolutionnaire : l'Impressionnisme. Pissaro, Sisley, Degas, Renoir, Cézanne, Monet figurent parmi les trente artistes exposées. Ah, j'oubliais une femme, elle s'appelle Berthe Morisot. Elle y présente une œuvre réalisée deux auparavant, intitulée « Le berceau ». Une scène de maternité qui deviendra un thème très présent dans son travail à venir. Pour l'heure, le tableau est à peine remarqué … enfin … une poignée de critiques, tout de même, admettent quelques qualités comme la grâce et l'élégance. Après avoir cherché en vain à le vendre, Berthe Morisot ne l'exposera plus et « Le berceau » restera dans la famille jusqu'à son acquisition par le musée du Louvre en 1930. Aujourd'hui, il est le tableau le plus célèbre de l'artiste et une image de la maternité partagée aux quatre coins du globe. Mais comment la représentation de la maternité a-t-elle évoluée, depuis l'Antiquité, dans son expression artistique ?

A new series has been released this morning (3 July) on Netflix. It is called Man with 1,000 Kids, and Netflix is billing it as the true story of Jonathan Meijer, a man accused of travelling the world, deceiving women into having his babies - via sperm donation - on a mass scale. Nuala talks to Jonathan Meijer, the sperm donor, to mums Natalie and Suzanne, who had a baby conceived with Jonathan's donor sperm, to Natalie Hill, the executive producer who pitched the original idea for these films to Netflix and to Rachel Cutting, director of compliance and information at the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), the UK's independent regulator of fertility treatment.A new report from AutoTrader has found that there's a stark gender divide when it comes to going green with your vehicle choice. Hyper-masculine marketing, highly technical jargon and anxieties around running out of charge are just some of the reasons they give on why women feel excluded from making the switch to electric vehicles. Nuala talks to Erin Baker, who is the editorial director at AutoTrader and author of the report. It's 150 years since the first Impressionist exhibition was held in Paris in 1874. The artists involved included Monet, Renoir, Degas, Morisot, Pissarro, Sisley and Cézanne, and just one female artist was included in that first exhibition, Berthe Morisot. But women artists were involved with Impressionism, and 150 years on, the National Gallery of Ireland is holding an exhibition to put their work front and centre. The director, Caroline Campbell, joins Nuala McGovern to talk about the exhibition, Women Impressionists, and the four female pioneers who were integral to the artistic movement.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Laura Northedge

Despite a large reward offer from the museum and over 30 years of investigation by the FBI, none of the artwork has been recovered.

Nous sommes le 15 avril 1874, à Paris, au 35, boulevard des Capucines. C'est là que s'ouvre une exposition qui va marquer l'histoire de l'art et bousculer notre perception du monde. Celle qui donnera son nom à un mouvement révolutionnaire : l'Impressionnisme. Pissaro, Sisley, Degas, Renoir, Cézanne, Monet, Berthe Morisot figurent parmi la trentaine d'artistes présentés. C'est une exposition qui embarrasse la presse. Jamais encore, en effet, des artistes n'ont eu l'audace d'organiser eux-mêmes un salon indépendant, de s'émanciper de l'Académie. Même si Courbet et Manet ont eu l'impudence d'exposer leurs propres œuvres dans leurs propres pavillons quelques années plus tôt, ce n'est tout de même pas la même chose. Les journaux conservateurs hésitent à faire de la réclame à une telle manifestation, mais garder le silence sur un tel événement ne serait pas professionnel. Dès le 17 avril, un premier article paraît, il est publié par « Le Rappel » et signé par Ernest d'Hervilly qui, contre toute attente, est plutôt bienveillant, il écrit : « On ne saurait trop encourager cette entreprise hardie, depuis longtemps conseillée par tous les critiques et tous les amateurs ». Mais les caricaturistes vont beaucoup s'amuser de la nouvelle façon de peindre.
