I am delighted to participate in some portraits made by Chrystel Mukeba for the exhibition STYLE CONGO, Heritage & Heresy at Civa in Brussels.

Also these images will be part of an installation at Yser station at Brussels in collaboration with Kanal Pompidou.

The works in the exhibition challenge and destabilize the canonical histories and colonial roots of this legacy. By examining the marks of colonization in the city of Brussels and in the Congolese urban landscape, they present a decolonial resignification of private and public spaces, and seek to rewrite the margins of history at the center.

FROM 17/03 to 3/09

Summary, Week 4

Lecture 4: Art Nouveau and more

Gilded Age The Industrial Revolution allowed (made inevitable?) the Victorian era’s creation of opulent looking objects in many materials, and many price ranges. The wealth created by manufacturing (and transportation, and industry of all sorts) made a new class of super-rich, not through inheritance but through capitalism and consumption. Many designers and craftsmen appealed to this wealthy market by creating ostentatious luxury goods. The second half of the 19th century also saw tremendous advances in old technologies, the introduction of new technologies, and a gradual shift away from steam power to turbines and electricity. This early era of electricity is often called the Second Industrial Revolution.

Art Nouveau: – First global style, only “self-concious” style (it was called Art Nouveau while it was happening). – First time designers began thinking in terms of stylizing.  – Designs came from significant and meaningful sources, but were inherently fashionable.  – The influence of Japanese art changed the way Western artists considered their work (and also an increasing awareness of “other” cultures). – The world began to consider trends and use that information in the design and marketing processes. – Consumption as we now know it is a product of the Art Nouveau sensibility. – Technology, and available materials challenge designers to begin figuring out how to give form to new devices.

Favorite items from AC Pocket Camp! I will made my van into a fairy cottage and these two sound perfect : there are Art Nouveau and Art Deco inspired. The lamp seems to be inspired by Ferdinand Preiss (German) and the “Lily of the valley lamp” (but i’m really not sure about this one). And the screen, by the work of Gustave Serrurier-Bovy (Belgian) in the early XX century. This is the aesthetic i’m going for and i certainly will spend all of my precious bells in this project. 

[anecdoteshistoriquesinutiles]

Anecdote historique inutile numéro 34: Gustave Serrurier-Bovy est connu dans le pays de liège pour son mobilier art nouveau. Le peï est même exposé au musée d’Orsay. Il est à noter que c’est sa femme Maria Bovy qui ouvre un magasin de décoration « Serrurier-Bovy » et que c’est le nom combiné des deux époux qui restera à la postérité, fait assez rare pour être mentionné. Ce cher Gustave donc devient facteur de meuble. Mais le Gus vient du peuple, alors il aime bien faire de riches meubles en essences précieuses pour les familles nanties du coin, ça gagne bien, mais il a aussi envie de créer des meubles pour le peuple. Alors, Gustave a une idée de génie: sa gamme de produit « artisan » ou « silex » sera à monter soi-même pour limiter les coûts de production. Le mec a inventé le meuble en kit 80 ans avant ikea...
