Galerie Le Minotaure , a lovely gallery with locations in both Tel Aviv and  in Paris’  6th arrondissement,  will  feature works by Jewish artists from Eastern Europe such as Boris Aronson,  one of the greatest scenographers on Broadway in the 50’s and 60’s, having revolutionized the New York Yiddish theater, particularly the one on 2^nd Avenue with his extremely avant gardist manner.

After extensively participating in fairs in  France and Moscow,  New York seems the next logical step for this gallery, members of the Syndicat National des Antiquaires.

“The Salon is the perfect setting for these beautiful works.”

Present in the world’s greatest museums, Flemish painting has always aroused an interest and a very particular passion among collectors.

De Jonckheere was founded in Brussels in 1976. Specialising in the study and sale of Flemish paintings, De Jonckheere has since established itself as a gallery of reference by selecting the finest works on the market.

In 1983, De Jonckheere decided to set up a gallery in Paris, 100 Rue du Faubourg Saint Honoré – just a stone’s throw away from the Elysée Palace – to welcome collectors and art-lovers from all over the world. Since then, its rigorous studies, the quality of its catalogues and its reliable choices have allowed the Parisian Gallery to confirm De Jonckheere’s reputation.

An essential player in the world of Flemish painting, De Jonckheere has expanded its activity to the 18^th century masters of Italian vedute.

These different collections are presented to the most demanding art-lovers by the De Jonckheere Gallery in Paris and worldwide, especially during its participation in the main old art fairs such as TEFAF in Maastricht, the Biennale des Antiquaires in Paris, the Florence Biennale and the Moscow World Fine Art Fair and now at The Salon: Art +Design

100 Years of Geometric Abstraction. For the upcoming Salon Art + Design fair, the James Goodman Gallery is pleased to announce a curated exhibition of paintings, drawings and sculpture focused on Geometric Abstraction. Our aim in this exhibition is to highlight the various modes of expression, the similarities and polarities, in the works created within these parameters.

Compositions of essential geometric forms have been explored with depth and vigor throughout the last century of art history, from Constructivism through the present.

A key figure in this exhibition, Josef Albers, emerged from the Bauhaus movement and influenced later generations of artists with his work, characterized by large geometric fields of flat solid color. Similar qualities are found in the work of numerous American Post-War artists including Stella, Kelly, Mangold and others. These shared concerns later resonated with the Minimalists of the 1960’s and 1970’s, who also sought to reduce and clarify fundamental forms. By selecting work that is chiefly concerned with the square, the rectangle, the triangle, the circle, and geometric volumes, this exhibition explores a specific strain of abstraction that runs through different artistic movements, time periods, and places.

Artists featured in this exhibition include
Albers, Arp, Bolotowsky, Diebenkorn, Diller,
Glarner, Halley, Held, Herbin, Judd, Kandinsky,
Léger, LeWitt, Lichtenstein, Malevich, Mangold,
Martin, Nicholson, Noland, Popova, Reinhardt,
Rockburne, Shapiro, and von Wiegand, among others.

Additionally, works by Burchfield, Calder, Cornell, Hopper, Moore, Nadelman, and others will be on view in an adjacent room.

Scandinavian design is described by many as being fairly minimalist, with clean simple lines; the subtle decorative qualities stemming from the early-20th century art movements and the simple lines deriving from the inter-war art movements gave this style its elegance.

Beautiful, simple, clean designs, inspired by nature and the northern climate, accessible and available to all, including an emphasis on the domestic environment’s enjoyable vistas; this is the Scandinavian ideal for design.

Modernity supplies pieces to international collectors and museums and is a hub for all who are interested in 20^th Century Design. The Salon: Art + Design is pleased to count them among the number of highly regarded and specialized dealers attending our 2012 New York show.
