Book Description
This book is an invitation to discover the radical and anti-establishment philosophy of the artists of Montmartre at the turn of the twentieth century. Focussing on the Arts incohérents, the Hydropathes, fumisme, the Cabaret des Quat'z'Arts and the Vachalcade, it illustrates the importance that Montmartre held as a center of the artistic avant-garde. A selection of 200 archival items and 150 works of art from the Musée de Montmartre and other public and private collections demonstrate the varied means used by the artists of the period (satire, caricature), their preferred media (posters, illustrations, songs) and their favorite places for the expression of their art (cabarets, the circus). The variety of works reproduced from the collection of the Musée de Montmartre serves as a guide to the collection and to the history of the elegant buildings, the beautiful gardens and the important artists in residence: émile Bernard, Suzanne Valadon and Maurice Utrillo. Contributions by: Phillip Dennis Cate, Jean-Manuel Gabert, Sandrine Nicollier, Saskia Ooms, Kléber Roussillon

Book Description
L'exposition "L'esprit de Montmartre et l'art moderne" vous invite à découvrir la philosophie radicale et contestataire des artistes montmartrois au tournant du XXe siècle. Mettant à l'honneur les Arts incohérents, les Hydropathes, le fumisme ou encore le cabaret des Quat'z'Arts et la Vachalcade, elle montre l'importance de Montmartre en tant que centre de l'avant-garde artistique. Deux cents pièces d'archives et cent cinquante oeuvres, issues de la collection du Musée de Montmartre mais également de collections publiques et privées, présentent au visiteur les moyens d'expression des artistes de l'époque (satire, caricature), leurs médias de prédilection (affiches, illustrations, chansons), et leurs lieux d'expression favoris (cabarets, cirque). La variété des oeuvres reproduites, conservées au Musée de Montmartre, fait également de cet ouvrage un précieux guide qui incite à découvrir l'histoire de ses bâtiments et de ses jardins, de ses artistes en résidence - Emile Bernard, Suzanne Valadon et Maurice Utrillo - ainsi que leurs chefs-d'oeuvre.

Book Description
"From the beginning of the history of cinema to the present day, from Lubitsch to Jeunet, Montmartre has always been a favoured setting for films by French and foreign directors alike. Montmartre, with its charm and history, embodies the very image of Paris, and has become an actor in its own right in films. 'Montmartre: A Film Set' evokes the various preferred locations for these films in Montmartre (the Moulin Rouge, Place Pigalle, Barbès, Sacré-Cœur, and so on), its atypical scenes (the stairways, lanes, small houses, and lamp posts), and its residents (the artistes, dancers, ordinary people, cops, thugs, and prostitutes). The Paris of parties and pleasure, as well as that of crime and perdition, often represented by the districts of La Chapelle, Pigalle, and La Goutte d'Or, has been integral to the celebration of art and poetry on the Butte Montmartre."-- Back cover

Book Description
Located on the fringes of Paris, Montmartre attracted artists such as Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso, Steinlen, and Jules Chéret. By the beginning of the twentieth century, the artists in the quarter began to create works blurring the boundaries between fine art and popular illustration, the artist and the audience, as well as class and gender distinctions. The creative expression that ensued was an exuberant mix of high and low-a breeding ground for what is today termed popular culture. The carefully interlocked essays in Montmartre and the Making of Mass Culture demonstrate how and why this quarter was at the forefront of such innovation. The contributors bring an unprecedented range of approaches to the topic, from political and religious history to art historical investigations and literary analysis of texts. This project is the first of its kind to examine fully Montmartre's many contributions to the creation of a mass culture that reigned supreme in the twentieth century.
