Yet she played a full part in the birth and development of abstraction, stubbornly seeking her own path. This monograph reveals a demanding and personal body of work and the journey of a \"discreet woman\" in the turmoil of the avant-garde.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMarcelle Cahn is a painter and sculptor of Strasbourg origin, born at the junction of two centuries and two cultures, French and German, Jewish on her father's side, converted Catholic on her mother's side, driven by music and theater before choosing painting as her field of expression. Expressionism, cubism, purism, dada, surrealism, concrete art, lyrical and geometric abstraction, Marcelle Cahn crossed the most important artistic movements of the 20th century without belonging to any school. A student of Lovis Corinth then Fernand Léger, she regularly participated in the exhibitions of the Cercle et Carré group, then Abstraction et Création and l'Art Concret, as well as the Salon des réalités nouvelles. Esteemed by her peers, recognized by critics, exhibited since 1925, she remains in the shadow of the great names of modern art. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe exhibition catalogue, presented at the Strasbourg Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art and then at the Saint-Étienne Museum of Modern Art, aims to bring together and analyse for the first time Marcelle Cahn's most emblematic works, covering all periods and media of creation and restoring the different artistic contexts in which the artist evolved, from early 20th-century German Expressionism to the main currents of geometric and lyrical abstraction. The aim is to reveal a body of work that is both rigorous and demanding, poetic and free, but also a singular, cultured, generous, discreet and full of imagination.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e With contributions from, among others, Serge Lemoine and Bernard Ceysson.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antinoë","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42843004797168,"sku":"25762","price":44.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/4043\/6408\/products\/Marcelle-Cahn-En-quete-d-espace.jpg?v=1652779335","url":"https:\/\/anttopinoe.com\/en-en\/products\/marcelle-cahn-en-quete-despace","provider":"Antinoë","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
