The salon Réalités nouvelles was founded in 1946 by art collector Fredo Sidès with the support of artists Auguste Herbin and Del Marle. With the aim of representing all the various tendencies present in abstract, concrete, constructivist, and nonfigurative art, this event was held yearly thereafter until 1956. The association, which called itself “Salon des Réalités nouvelles”, published Cahiers. The latter review took over where “Abstraction-Creation” had left off (1931). More specifically, it kept alive the debate over nonfigurative art which Abstraction-Creation had been instrumental in bringing about, especially in its last issues. Such artists as Auguste Herbin were actually active within both groups. Réalités nouvelles, together with other groups, helped maintain abstraction alive beyond the Second World War, even though this tendency came out of the war much weaker both in its ideology and its esthetic ideals. In this short presentation, we cover the period of the formal existence of this movement, although it never totally disappeared.

Index chosen on the movements, important currents and events in the XX 2nd century art

I wanted to give here, with 46 various short introductions, some general elements on the movements or currents of art, groups or exhibitions, which concern the artists whose works are presented in gallery or were it recently. The table, above, will make it possible to visually locate the periods or dates in time. Each entry is followed of a list of the principal artists belonging to the movement or current. It may be that there is only one simple relationship between such or such artist and the movement in which in theory one locates it (Click on the names in blue to reveal work or works currently in stock). It will be understood, some movements are represented much than of others in my gallery. The same artist will be often found in several movements (as each one knows it, it was thus). Although these some introductions, briefly developed, are not addressed to the specialists, they will forgive me the few lapses of memory or choices which would lend to discussion. I hope that these tiny introductions will be however useful to some of you. Michelle Champetier
