ScheduleCrosscurrents: Cultural Exchange in the Eighteenth Century
January 31, 12:30PM - 1:30PM
The eighteenth century was a time of great cross-cultural exchange, in Europe and beyond. Artists from England and Northern Europe embarked on their Grand Tours of Italy to steep themselves in the classical monuments and landscapes, while artists from the continent traveled to England to work in its royal court and flourishing academies. This multifaceted cultural exchange was further expanded by artists’ encounters with diverse cultures, in colonies or through exported goods. Join us for a panel discussion between scholars and dealers to discuss the importance of drawing from this period of travel and enrichment.
Presented in collaboration with Master Drawings New York and The Drawing Foundation
Moderator: Daniella Berman, PhD., Head of Special Programs and Strategic Initiatives, The Drawing Foundation
Panelists:
Laurel Peterson, Curator, Yale Center for British Art
Alan Templeton, Collector

The Beauty of Restraint: Paris and the Empresses of Design
January 31, 4PM - 5PM
When Elsie de Wolfe declared, “The cardinal virtue of all beauty is restraint,” she could have been speaking for the tastemakers emerging in Paris around the time of the Art Deco. Among them, there was Sophie Taeuber-Arp and her multifaceted arsenal of talent, Madeleine Vionnet and the couture of the bias-cut, and Suzanne Belperron, who single-handedly made jewelry art. Meanwhile, Jeanne Lanvin and her firm, Lanvin Decoration (with Armand-Albert Rateau), and Jean Dunand in collaboration with the French milliner Madame Agnès (Rittener), produced works for the 1925 exposition. This panel will explore how these accomplished designers influenced one another and spoke the language of modernism that took hold of the world.
