  • De Félix Martin-Sabon à Pierre Pradel, une histoire de plaques de verre
    Les Cahiers de l'École du Louvre, 2018
    Co-Authors: Mérel-brandenburg Anne-bénédicte
    Abstract:

    L’École du Louvre conserve au sein des services documentaires, regroupé dans les espaces de la photothèque, un fonds iconographique composé de photographies, de cartes postales, de plaques de verre positives et négatives, de formats différents, noir et blanc, autochromes, de négatifs sur support celluloïd et de diapositives, supplantés depuis les années 1995 par le numérique. Au-delà de la patrimonialisation de cet ensemble exceptionnel destiné à l’enseignement, l’article se concentrera à partir des archives écrites mises en perspective avec la collection de plaques de verre sur ses pérégrinations (1932-2005), sa genèse et sa constitution, sa gestion et sa classification (1900-1960), et sur le regain d’intérêt dans les années 2010. La richesse du corpus offre ainsi des sujets d’études inédits, de l’histoire de la photographie à une approche pluridisciplinaire : peinture, sculpture, Arts décoratifs, archéologie, muséologie, pédagogie.The École du Louvre holds, in the spaces of its photographic library, an iconographic collection made up of photographs, postcards, positive and negative glass plates in various sizes, black and white, autochromes, celluloid negatives and slides, supplanted by digital in 1995. Beyond the patrimonialisation of this exceptional collection intended for teaching, the article will focus, based on written archives put into perspective with the glass-plate collection, on its peregrinations (1932–2005), genesis and constitution, management and classification (1900–60), and the renewed interest in the 2010s. The richness of the corpus thus offers new objects of study, from the history of photography to a multidisciplinary approach: painting, sculpture, Decorative Arts, archaeology, museology and pedagogy

  • etude sur le mouvement d art decoratif en allemagne a study of the Decorative Arts movement in germany
    Design Issues, 2007
    Co-Authors: Charlesedouard Jeanneret
    Abstract:

    Introduction by Nancy J. Troy Charles-Edouard Jeanneret (better known as Le Corbusier, a pseudonym adopted in connection with his work as an architect) published his first small book, Etude sur le mouvement d’art decoratif en Allemagne (A Study of the Decorative Arts Movement in Germany), in 1912. Researched during the course of an extended stay in Germany between April 1910 and May 1911, the Etude had been commissioned by the Ecole d’Art of his Swiss hometown, La Chaux-deFonds. There, beginning in 1902, Jeanneret had studied Decorative art for five years in preparation for a career in the local watch-making industry. Under the tutelage of Charles L’Eplattenier, his teacher and mentor throughout this period, the young man’s horizons, and his ambitions, gradually broadened beyond the study of art and ornament to embrace architecture and eventually urbanism as well. In 1907, Jeanneret embarked on a four-year period of travel that brought him to Italy, Vienna, Paris (where he worked for the architect and building contractor, Auguste Perret), and Germany, culminating in 1911 in his so-called Voyage d’Orient through the Balkans to Istanbul, Greece, and central Italy. During the year spent in Germany, Jeanneret traveled widely but also worked for five months as a draughtsman in the Berlin office of Peter Behrens, the most significant modern architect and industrial designer in Germany at the time. Throughout his stay in Germany, Jeanneret remained in close contact with L’Eplatennier, with whom he was preparing a book, La Construction des Villes, which was never published.1 L’Eplattenier recognized his young protege’s need to support himself while traveling abroad and therefore arranged for the Ecole d’Art to pay Jeanneret to report on the situation of the Decorative Arts in Germany, covering a wide range of issues that might prove instructive to his Swiss sponsors, from professional education to the fabrication and sale of designs, and offering comments on the beautification of cities and 1 H. Allen Brooks has shown that this project sowed the seeds for the much later and vastly transformed Urbanisme, published in 1925. See H. Allen Brooks, Le Corbusier’s Formative Years: CharlesEdouard Jeanneret at La Chaux-de-Fonds (Chicago and London: University of Chicago Press, 1997). I am indebted to Brooks’s extensive original research.
