30th Engraving Prize.
Musée de la Gravure et de l'Image imprimé
|
|
|
|
Le Prix de la Gravure et de l’Image imprimée /The Engraving and Printed Image Prize has been organized since 1989 through the support of the Minister of Culture of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation – Visual Arts Department. It is intended to encourage the practice of printmaking and printed art in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation and to offer real visibility to artists practising this discipline :
A prize and a special mention for this 30th edition:
The 30th Engraving prize was awarded to Mathieu Van Assche for his Miniatures, a series of prints begun since 2019 and still a work in progress (visual). Realized with the etching and aquatint techniques, each engraving is deliberately tiny (plates ± 4×5 cm). Onlookers will be given access to a small window on a imaginery world only if they take the time to approach and observe.
A special mention was given to David Poret for his "Chapels" set.These porcelain prints are portraits made using the traditional drypoint etching technique. The semiotic dimension of cobalt blue and white remind the artist of the Chinese porcelaine or Delft tiles history.

Illuminated tarot cards
Musée français de la carte à jouer
|
|
The illuminated tarots of the 15th century are fascinating. A fine workmanship, a richness of colors, embossed on golden bottom, make illuminated cards works of art in their own right, considered as both playing cards and miniatures.
As luxury items, they have been better preserved than ordinary printed tarot cards. Dominated by the cards painted by Bonifacio Bembo and his workshop for the court of Milan in the mid-fifteenth century, illuminated tarot cards were also made for other production centers, such as Ferrara or Florence. The emergence on art market and the acquisition by the Musée de la Carte à Jouer of a superb Chariot, one of the assets of the tarot, totally unpublished, has shaken up attributions made until then.
This is a new perspective offered by the exhibition organized around the Chariot tarot card and its " Polish sisters", exceptionally loaned by the National Museum of warsaw. (extract from the press kit).
The exhibition displays more than 70 works on loan from France and abroad.
The exhibition is accompanied by a richly illustrated catalog co-published with Liénart Publishing house and an international symposium. Thierry Depaulis, the scientific curator, is a recognized specialist in the history of tarot, author of the catalog "Tarot, jeu et magie", which accompanied the memorable exhibition at the Bibliothèque nationale in 1984-85 and, more recently, the book" Le tarot révélé / the tarot revealed": a history of tarot according to supporting documents, published in Switzerland in 2013.
