The Volpini Exhibition, 1889
The Volpini Exhibition was an exhibition of paintings arranged by Paul Gauguin and his circle held at the Café des Arts on the Champ de Mars, not far from the official art pavilion of the 1889 ''Exposition universelle'' in Paris.〔Lucie-Smith, Edward (1972). ''Symbolist Art''. London: Thames & Hudson, p. 94. ISBN 0500201250〕 A poster and an illustrated catalogue were printed, but the show of "Paintings by the Impressionist and Synthetist Group", held in June and early July of 1889, was ignored by the press and proved to be a failure.
==Background==
The official art exhibition at the Académie des Beaux-Arts accompanying the ''Exposition universelle'' displayed works only by invited artists, and the selection of works to be exhibited had to pass the judgement of official juries. Neither Gauguin nor his friends could hope to enter this exhibition. But by chance, Emile Schuffenecker found another way that they might present their work to the public in conjunction with the exposition. Monsieur Volpini, who had the contract for the Grand Café des Arts opposite the exhibition, had a problem: the mirrors he had ordered in Italy to decorate the interior of his café would not arrive in time for the opening of the exposition.〔Mathews p. 132〕 Schuffenecker proposed that the gap could be filled with a display of paintings by him and his friends.
