Gustave Courbet, The Stonebreakers, 1849 (destroyed in WW II)

"It is not often that one encounters so complete an expression of poverty and so, right then and there I got the idea for a painting.

I told them to come to my studio the next morning."

Gustave Courbet, Portrait of Proudhon and his Children, 1853  ”Anarchy is Order Without Power”

Gustave Courbet, A Burial at Ornans 1849-1850, oil on canvas, 10' 3’ x 21' 9" Musée d'Orsay, Paris.

What is ‘avant-garde modern’ about this painting in form and content?

Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, Grace at Table, 1740 (19"/15") Louvre, Paris

Genre painting was a traditional category in European academies of art, which enforced a strict hierarchy of genres that determined a painting’s value: first history, then portrait painting followed by genre, landscape, and still life. Note relatively small size of Chardin’s painting. Courbet’s Burial at Ornans is 10' 3’ x 21' 9"

Page 18: Modern Art 109 From mid-19 th century to mid-20 th century

“I have studied, outside of any system and without prejudice, the art of the ancients and of the Moderns. I no more wanted to imitate the one than to copy the other; nor, furthermore, was it my intuition to attain the trivial goal of art for art's sake. No! I simply wanted to draw forth from a complete acquaintance with tradition the reasoned and independent consciousness of my own individuality"

"To know in order to be able to create, that was my idea. To be in a position to translate the customs, the ideas, the appearance of my epoch, according to my own estimation: to be not only a painter, but a man as well: in short, to create living art - this is my goal.“

Gustave Courbet, statement for his Pavilion of Realism, build next to the Paris International Exhibition of 1855

Courbet, the Communard, and the destruction of the Vendome column, symbol of Napoleonic (French) imperialism

"Inasmuch as the Vendôme column is a monument devoid of all artistic value, tending to perpetuate by its expression the ideas of war and conquest of the past imperial dynasty, which are reproved by a republican nation's sentiment, citizen Courbet expresses the wish that the National Defense government will authorise him to disassemble this column.“ – Courbet

Modernity is the transient, the fleeting, the contingent; it is one half of art, the other being the eternal and the immovable.

“Oh, I knock one off in a couple of days.” (Whistler)

Why is a painting made so quickly so highly valued?

What are the issues around “art for art’s sake” raised by the Whistler vs. John Ruskin trial? How are they “modern”?

Page 43: Modern Art 109 From mid-19 th century to mid-20 th century

Modernity is the transitory, the fugitive, the contingent, the half of art, of which the other half is the eternal and the immutable. . . .
