<p>The building was constructed for the Paris Colonial Exposition of 1931 based on the designs of the French architect Albert Laprade. The fresco that decorates the forum in the very centre of the Palais de la Porte Dorée, the former function room during the Colonial Exposition of 1931, was created on a surface area of over 600 m² by the painter Pierre-Henri Ducos de la Haille, a professor at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, and his seven assistants. Inaugurated in May 1931. The fresco features allegorical figures, largely inspired by the ones at Reims city hall, along with colonial scenes that he created in collaboration with Etienne Hauville. The overall theme is France’s contribution to its colonies.<br />

<p>Executed between 1929 and 1931 for the Palais des Colonies by Alfred Janniot – assisted by his collaborators Gabriel Forestier and Charles Barberis and 30 specialist workers. The bas-relief covers a surface area of 1,130 m², a height of 13 metres and a length of 90 metres. Described as the world’s biggest bas-relief, it covers the entire façade of the Palais de la Porte Dorée. It features a series of allegories in the midst of abundant fauna and lush flora. It was intended as an illustration of the economic contributions made by the colonies to metropolitan France. <br />

<p>The building was constructed for the Paris Colonial Exposition of 1931 based on the designs of the French architect Albert Laprade. At the 1930 Salon des Artistes Décorateurs, Jean Dunand organised a preview presentation in a “colonial entrance hall” of seven lacquers he had made to decorate the future Musée des Colonies, which would open during the 1931 Colonial Exposition. After the Exposition, he donated them to the French state, which had already purchased the large format work La forêt in 1929 (a panel 3 metres high and 3.30 metres wide). In total, ten lacquer panels, representative of the different lacquer techniques (laque arrachée, Coromandel lacquer, laque défoncée) graced the double reading room at the Musée des Colonies. This is three of Dunand's panels - the one on the left is Les Peuples d'Afrique (Sénégal) executed in 1930.<br />

<p>Elisabeth Epstein <br />
Oil paint on card<br />
<br />
Epstein fills the canvas with her portrait. Using bold contrasting colours and a fragmented composition, she asserts an expressive and confident self-depiction. Born to a Ukrainian Jewish family, Epstein moved between Moscow, Munich and Paris, seeking a progressive art education. Breaking from social conventions, she separated from her husband and son to focus on her artistic practice and moved to France. She painted this self portrait after settling in Paris.<br />
She bridged the artistic and creative communities in Paris and Munich, introducing the work of Sonia and Robert Delaunay to the Blue Rider group.*<br />

<br />
Expressionists Kandinsky, Münter and The Blue Rider<br />
(April – October 2024)<br />
<br />
Explore the groundbreaking work of a circle of friends and close collaborators known as The Blue Rider. In the early 20th century they came together to form, in their own words, ‘a union of various countries to serve one purpose’ – to transform modern art. The artists rallied around Wassily Kandinsky and Gabriele Münter to experiment with colour, sound and light, creating bold and vibrant art.<br />
Expressionists is a story of friendships told through art. It examines the highly individual creatives that made up The Blue Rider, from Franz Marc’s interest in colour to Alexander Sacharoff’s freestyle performance. The women artists played a central role in the movement. Discover experimental photographs by Gabriele Münter alongside the dramatic paintings of Marianne Werefkin.<br />
