''Académie de La Palette'', also called ''Académie La Palette'' and ''La Palette'', (English: ''Palette Academy''), was a private art school in Paris, France, active between 1888 and 1914, aimed at promoting'' 'conciliation entre la liberté et le respect de la tradition'.''〔(Grace Brockington, ''Internationalism and the Arts in Britain and Europe at the Fin De Siecle'', 2009 )〕〔Walter Sickert, ''All We Like Sheep'', Art News, 14 April 1910, in Anna Gruetzner Robins, ''Walter Sickert: The Complete Writings on Art, p. 216. And in Grace Brockington, ''Internationalism and the Arts in Britain and Europe at the Fin De Siecle'', p. 35〕 Early on the ''Académie de La Palette'' developed a reputation as a progressive art school.〔(Bruce Altshuler, ''The avant-garde in exhibition: new art in the 20th century'', Abrams, 1994 )〕 In 1902, with Jacques-Émile Blanche as director of the academy, the concept had been 'any attempt at ''imitation'' are now abandoned' (tentative d'imitation étant désormais abandonnée ).〔(Jacques-Émile Blanche, Maurice Denis, ''Correspondence'', (1901-1939) )〕 From 1912, when Henri Le Fauconnier and Jean Metzinger took over the direction of the school, the role of the ''Académie de La Palette'' as the nexus for the avant-garde at the forefront of the Parisian art scene was secured.〔(Academies in Paris, Kubisme.info (Dutch) )〕〔(Mark Antliff, Patricia Dee Leighten, ''A cubism reader: documents and criticism, 1906-1914'', University of Chicago Press, Aug 1, 2008 )〕 ==History== From 1900 to 1914 many academies were formed in Paris under the direction of well-known established artists, such as the Académie Matisse, Académie Alexander Archipenko, Académie de la Grande Chaumière, Académie Humbert, Académie Ranson, Académie Russe de Peinture et de Sculpture, Académie Vasilieff, and Académie Vitti. These schools had for competition not only each other but those already established academies that had become popular prior to the 1900s such as ''Académie de La Palette'', Académie Julian, Académie Colarossi and the vast École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts.〔(Delia Gaze, 'Concise Dictionary of Women Artists'', 2013 )〕 According to some sources, the ''Académie de La Palette'' was originally located in Montparnasse, Rue de l'Arrivée in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, and may have had as founder the Swiss painter Martha Stettler, linking it to the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, also founded by Stettler.〔 It remains unclear exactly when the academy was founded. According to another source, the artist Fernand Cormon founded an art school in 1882 by the name of ''Atelier Cormon'', at 10 rue Constance in Paris. In 1888 the academy moved to 104 Boulevard de Clichy in the 18th arrondissement of Paris where is became known as ''Académie de La Palette''. At that location Eugène Carrière〔(Eugène Carrière, Académie de La Palette )〕 became a professor, along with Pierre Puvis de Chavannes.〔Taylor, E.A. The Studio - Vol 84, No 353, August 1922, London.〕〔(Claude Dumas, ''L'Homme et l'espace dans la littérature, les arts et l'histoire en Espagne et en Amérique Latine au XIXe siècle: études'', Presses Univ. Septentrion, 1985 )〕 At that time artists such as Santiago Rusiñol studied at ''La Palette'' under Henri Gervex.〔(William H. Robinson, Jordi Falgas, Carmen Bellon Lord, Forward by Robert Hughes, ''Barcelona and Modernity: Picasso, Gaudí, Miró, Dalí'', The Cleveland Museum, Yale University Press, 2006 )〕 The art school, subsequently relocated to 18 rue du Val-de-Grâce in the 5th arrondissement of Paris.〔(Der Sturm, 20 April 1912 ). Blue Mountain Project, Princeton University〕 Between 1902 and 1911 Jacques-Émile Blanche directed the academy; his bilingualism attracting many English and North American students seeking exposure to the latest avant-garde tendencies. Under his tutelage instruction was offered in both French and English.〔(Mark Antliff, Patricia Dee Leighten, ''A cubism reader: documents and criticism, 1906-1914'', University of Chicago Press, Aug 1, 2008 )〕 Teachers during the early years included Lucien Simon, Charles Cottet, Georges Desvallières, who co-founded the Salon d'Automne, Edmond Aman-Jean, Lucien Simon, Charles-François-Prosper Guérin, René François Xavier Prinet (1861-1946) and others. According to a notice in the journal ''La Revue de France et des Pays Français'' (March–April 1912), Mac Neill had been the director of the school.〔(La Revue de France et des Pays Français (March-April 1912) )〕 In 1905 the Russians Sonia Terk, Elisabeth Iwanowna Epstein and Marie Vassilieff graduated from this academy. Fellow students at ''La Palette'' included Amédée Ozenfant, André Dunoyer de Segonzac and Roger de La Fresnaye.〔(Stanislaus Von Moos, ''Le Corbusier: Elements of a Synthesis'', 2009 )〕〔(Richard R. Brettell, Françoise Forster-Hahn, Duncan Robinson, Janis A. Tomlinson, ''Nineteenth and Twentieth Century European Drawings'', Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2002 )〕 February 1912 Henri Le Fauconnier was appointed to succeed Jacques-Émile Blanche as ''chef d'atelier''.〔(John Golding, ''Cubism: A History and an Analysis, 1907-1914'', Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 1988 )〕 Le Fauconnier commissioned Jean Metzinger and André Dunoyer de Segonzac as full-time instructors for the morning sessions; Eugène Zak and Jean Francis Auburtin took over in the afternoon. Dunoyer de Segonzac had from 1907 attended the school and worked part-time together with John Duncan Fergusson.〔 At this time the academy primarily attracted French, Danish and Russian students. Some of the students known to have attended were Marcel Gromaire and Marc Chagall.〔(André de Ridder, ''Le Fauconnier'', L'Art Libre, No. 11, August 15, 1919, p. 120 ). Gallica, Bibliothèque nationale de France〕 Though Chagall's studies at La Palette were intermittent and succinct,〔Michael R. Taylor, ''Paris Through the Window: Marc Chagall and his Circle'', exh. cat. Philadelphia Museum of Art, 2011〕 it was there that Chagall frequented artists at the forefront of the Parisian avant-garde. His experimentations at the time centered on Fauvist colors and Cubist construction.〔Hélène Vincent, ''Chagall à Paris'', in ''Chagall et l’Avant-Garde Russe'', exh. cat., Musée de Grenoble and the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto (Paris: Éditions du Centre Pompidou, 2011), 60〕 His instructors were Le Fauconnier and Metzinger.〔(Aliya Reich, ''Adrift in Paris: Marc Chagall and the Negotiation of Identity through Painting, 1911-1914'', Washington University in St. Louis, January 2012 )〕〔Jackie Wullschlager, ''Chagall: A Biography'', New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2008〕 In the fall of 1912 Liubov Popova and Nadezhda Udaltsova enrolled at ''La Palette'' following the advice of Alexandra Exter. According Udaltzova, Jean Metzinger encouraged the students to the visit gallery and salons where Cubist works were exhibited. The price for a half-day classes was 40 francs per month.〔 Metzinger's students at ''La Palette'' included Serge Charchoune, Jessica Dismorr, Nadezhda Udaltsova, Varvara Stepanova and Lyubov Popova.〔(Waterhouse & Dodd Fine Art, Jean Metzinger )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Académie de La Palette」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
