Gaétan CaronEntitled Studio Antoine Bourdelle this archival photo is from the L'École de Paris en bleu, blanc, rouge series by contemporary Mendocino/Bay Area artist, Gaétan Caron (b. 1964), co-founder of Lost Art Salon in San Francisco. This photography series portrays the romanticism of the School of Paris, a very important art period during the first half of the 20th Century (1890-1940) when Paris was at the center of a creative intensity. Immigrant artists flocked to Paris then to work in tandem with French luminaries. Gaétan has always been fascinated with Paris being from Québec. That is where he discovered Modern art in his early twenties. For years, Gaétan has traveled to Paris to capture images of the past still very much present today: chairs, stairs, classrooms, studios, windows, benches, easels, stools, cafés where artists studied, sat, painted, worked and gathered to create. Antoine Bourdelle is a well known French sculptor from the School of Paris. He had a studio at l'Académie de la Grande-Chaumière where he taught clay sculpture. This image of pêle-mêle stools was taken in the Atelier named after the artist. Gaétan lives and works in his off-the-grid home located in an heirloom orchard in the Mendocino hills of Northern California.Please allow at least 2-3 weeks for printing and framing before a piece is shipped.2019 Archival Photograph on Hahnemuhle Fine Art Pearl Paper Approximately 22"x18" framed, 12"x10" unframedSigned, dated and titled on the back of the photo.
