'Toulouse Art Nouveau. Période 1890 - 1920'
Toulouse, 05.03.2020 | Published by ÉDITIONS TORREFORT
Toulouse Art Nouveau. Période 1890 - 1920 ("Toulouse Art Nouveau: 1890-1920 Period") is a guide that helps you to discover the city's Art Nouveau treasures and outline the contours of a specific Toulouse style, combining regionalism and southern art, a troubadour, Art Nouveau, bourgeois style marked by a great variety of ornamentation: stained glass, wrought iron, volutes and mosaics. Seventy-three buildings, houses and various premises are all presented in detail, such as the Au Capitole department store (Primark), Musee George Labit or Cervantes Institute, inviting you to stroll through Proustian times.
The Toulouse architects of the period were influenced by Haussmann's newly opened streets (Alsace Lorraine, Metz and Ozenne) and remained mostly faithful to 19th-century bourgeois architecture.FURNÉMONT, Geneviève, 2019 / Toulouse Art Nouveau. Période 1890 - 1920

"Manuel Cusí. Devoció per la bellesa" ("Manuel Cusí: Devoted to Beauty")
Barcelona, 03.03.2020 | Published by MANEL TERRÓN CUSÍ, BARCELONA
Manuel Cusí. Devoció per la bellesa ("Manuel Cusí: Devoted to Beauty") is a biography of the painter Manuel Cusí (1857-1919), who was considered to be a master of Catalan painting of his time. Essentially dedicated to portraiture, he also often captured the opulence of the Liceu opera house in paintings renowned for their technique of depicting artificial light, with which he gained major recognition among the bourgeoisie.
From typical folkloric paintings to those of worldly, turn-of-the-century bourgeois women, the book is an opportunity to discover Manuel Cusí's life and work, his life context, artistic development and the subjects that interested him most, which he depicted in his many canvases.
