Century France

The Brothers Le Nain: Painters of Seventeenth-Century France

Through September 11, 2016

The brothers Le Nain—Antoine, Louis, and Mathieu—flourished in Paris during the second quarter of the seventeenth century and are renowned for their sympathetic portrayals of the poor and rural laborers. Famed during their lifetime, the brothers were forgotten in the eighteenth century but were rediscovered two hundred years after their death by critics and artists of the nineteenth-century Realist school, who appreciated their subjects and their complex portrayals of working people. The Brothers Le Nain: Painters of Seventeenth-Century France is organized by the Kimbell Art Museum and the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco—among only eight public collections in the United States to boast one or more paintings by these remarkable, but still little-known, artists. This exhibition marks the first celebration of their art in North America

since 1947, when the Toledo Museum of Art mounted a small exhibition of their paintings. In fact, it is only the second exhibition held anywhere in the world, at any time, to focus on the brothers’ full production—with altarpieces, portraits, and mythologies, in addition to those scenes of beggars and peasants for which the brothers are now most famous. That earlier exhibition, Les Frères Le Nain, was held at the Grand Palais in Paris in the fall and early winter of 1978-79. Organized by a great eminence of French art history, the late Jacques Thuillier, the exhibition was seen by more than 300,000 people. Since then, more than three decades have passed, yet today the Le Nains remain almost as mysterious as a hundred and fifty years ago when they were “rediscovered” and first became the subject of serious scholarly inquiry. Where and with whom did they train? What inspired them to undertake their paintings of the poor? What was their market—who were their patrons or customers? The Brothers Le Nain will try to answer these and other outstanding questions about the painters and their art. No problem is knottier, though, than the

question of who did what—that is, which brother executed which of their paintings? Did each brother have his own speciality, or did they sometimes (or often) collaborate on a single work? Visitors to the exhibition, whether long-term admirers of the painters or people who are discovering them for the first time, will enjoy wrestling with the questions of authorship through direct comparison of key works—an experience which is only possible when the originals are brought together. As intriguing as these mysteries may be, even the most seasoned specialist will make it a first priority to stand in the galleries and let the spell of the Le Nains take hold. In such works as Peasant Family in an Interior from the Louvre, or the Kimbell’s own Peasant Interior with an Old Flute Player, humble people return the onlooker’s gaze with unabashed frankness,

teaching the privileged viewer lessons of human equality. The painters capture details of clothing and setting but, above all, subtle (sometimes inscrutable) personal interactions among the gathered figures. Such intimacy is seen throughout the brothers’ works, in religious paintings, portraits, or scenes of bourgeois family life. A majestic altarpiece from the Cathedral of Notre Dame, Paris, shows the Birth of the Virgin in the background, behind the infant mother of Christ held in the lap of a nurse in a pose that brings to mind the future relationship of the

Madonna with her own son and distills the essence of motherly love. The brothers portray themselves as a group, posing shoulder to shoulder in a dramatically unfinished canvas from the National Gallery, London. In delicate small-scale paintings on copper, children dance and play music with a total lack of preten-

sion, reminding us of the innocence of being a child. The Brothers Le Nain: Painters of Seventeenth-Century France finally gives art lovers in the United States the opportunity to appreciate the Le Nains in all their complexity. A collaboration between Fort Worth and San Francisco grew and developed from the initial idea of focusing on examples of the Le Nains’ work in the United States. The concept expanded when the Musée du Louvre in Paris agreed to partner with the American museums; the Louvre’s satellite location in Lens, France, will be the venue for the third phase of the exhibition, in which the paintings of the Le Nains will be joined by selected works by other artists of their time. The Kimbell is both humbled and proud that our museum, with our colleagues in San Francisco and Lens, should be the first in more than a generation to explore these wonderful painters and to manage to bring together, due to the generosity of collectors and museums across the United States and Europe, some of their greatest achievements.

West is Among the Best for Culture and Shopping-and-Dining Delights

by Michael H. Price

As long as we’re “out where the West begins,” as an iconic figure in Fort Worth’s history described this Cowtown, then we might as well look even further westward within the city itself. Pioneering publisher and civic booster Amon Carter may have intended to give Dallas the razz when he coined that phrase — but the West hardly could have picked a keener starting point than Fort Worth. And Fort Worth, in turn, hardly could have picked a site more right for its burgeoning west side Cultural District. Rippling with heavy-duty commercial, artistic and residential growth since the dawn of the 21st century, the west side overall has seen its very skyline change with the transformation of a busy West Seventh Street into a streamlined conduit connecting the downtown area’s Sundance Square development with the Cultural District. Heading west (naturally) from downtown Fort Worth, one finds the Cultural District radiating from the intersection where Seventh Street crosses University Drive and, in the process, morphs into the historic, brick-paved Camp Bowie Boulevard. Visitors in search of western-style discoveries — from plain-and-fancy dining to fine art and varied entertainment — will find such delights in volume on the west side. Cultural attractions, restaurants, mainstream and special-interest shopping, and lavish natural gardens flourish as a reminder of how Fort Worth has built upon its frontier origins. Several of the world’s finer museums, playhouses and galleries anchor a vast Cultural District. The hand-laid red-brick pavement of Camp Bowie Boulevard is an attraction in itself, lined with an everexpanding array of art galleries, stage-andscreen auditoriums, boutiques, scholarly museums, restaurants and lounges, and shopping malls. 6

The Cultural District The Fort Worth Museum of Science & History, commands the westward view of the district from Montgomery Street and just northward are additional cultural touchstones: An expanded and redesigned Amon Carter Museum of American Art, houses a definitive collection of American paintings, photography, and sculpture, from essential historic works by Charles M. Russell and Frederick Remington to a new acquisition of last-century Native American photography by Edward S. Curtis. Near by is the Kimbell Art Museum still living up to Newsweek’s description as “arguably the most beautiful museum in America” including its new Renzo Piano Pavilion addition. The neighboring Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth is the oldest such museum in Texas — housed in a work-of-art 2002 building designed by world-renowned Japanese architect, Tadao Ando, and featuring bold gallery exhibitions, concert attractions and, every weekend, leading-edge independent-studio films. The Museum of Science & History, anchoring a campus within the Cultural District, has been designed by similarly renowned architects Ricardo and Victor Legorreta. Inside the Museum of Science & History, one finds vast galleries of Texas-bred dinosaur specimens and the state’s oil-and-gas heritage, in addition to the Cattle Raisers Museum, the Fort Worth Children’s Museum, Stars Café, and a new digital Noble Planetarium. The Omni Theater, an IMAX® superscreen dome, links with the Museum of Science & History and boasts a new digital sound system and enhanced lighting.The National Cowgirl Museum & Hall of Fame is next door to the FMS&H. The NCM&HF honors women of the American West from those who have lived and worked on ranches

or who led an expedition, or sat before an easel, aimed a rifle and hit the bull’s eye, or sat on the Supreme Court. When the museum meanderings trigger an appetite for fine dining, two long-established, museum-based cafés stand ready to serve. The Kimbell Buffet Restaurant offers indoor or patio lunch and a light evening menu within one of the most beautiful modern buildings in America. The Modern Art Museum’s 250-seat Café Modern, with an outdoor terrace, overlooks a serene reflecting pond. The Modern’s full-service kitchen delivers superb cuisine for lunch, Sunday brunch, and scheduled seasonal dinners. The Great Outdoors offers breakfast subs, lunch and dinner subs, soups, salads and all natural ice cream. Off University on White Settlement Road, a Texas barbecue tradition reigns at Angelo’s, offering a half-century of first-class BBQ and ultra-chilled beer. The Fort Worth Community Art Center, at the district’s western edge, showcases work by the city’s homegrown community of artists, in addition to live-theater venues. Neighboring the museum community is the city’s landmark Will Rogers Memorial Center, a versatile 85-acre entertainment complex — with 45 acres housing the Will Rogers Coliseum & Auditorium. Its majestic Pioneer Tower dates from the Texas Centennial Celebration of 1936. Still the most imposing site within the district, the coliseum holds pride of place as the first domed structure of its kind in the world. The complex also boasts an equestrian center and exhibit halls, home to the annual Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo. Showplaces of Heritage and Artistry and Nature Shoppers can find a broad selection of merchandise in the Cultural District’s specialty shops. European antiques and upholstery can be found at Domain XCIV and the dh collection boasts progressive furniture designs in an appetite-whetting environment.

can experience the glories of nature at Trinity Park, a pristine oasis bordered by a fork of the placid Trinity River. Here, picnickers, joggers, and strollers can explore meandering pathways or travel on a miniature railroad. Opposite the park, across University Drive, Fort Worth’s Botanic Garden beckons — the oldest such site in Texas, a lush 109-acre tapestry of dappled shade accented by vibrant splashes of color. The Garden is home to thousands of species of native and exotic plants in 21 specialty gardens. The European-designed Rose Garden features more than 3,400 roses,and the 10,000-square-foot Conservatory houses tropical flowers and foliage from around the world. An on-site Gardens Restaurant serves light lunches and refreshments — with a view of the Garden and a varied gallery that often displays the work of local artists. Adjacent to the Botanic Garden is the Botanical Research Institute of Texas (BRIT) whose mission is to “reduce its footprint on the natural world as well as protect and restore ecosystem services.” BRIT’s building was designed as an example of how much of this can be accomplished. A short distance southward lies the illustrious Fort Worth Zoo, nationally ranked among the finest. The Zoo is home to thousands of animals, both native and exotic. Viewing facilities and natural habitat exhibits are set up for optimal views of the animals, often separated from their observers by only a river, a waterfall, or a large window. Shaded rest spots and picnic tables are available, with several on-site eateries. Across from the Zoo, Log Cabin Village offers another view of the city’s rich frontier history boasting seven authentic log homes, dating from the mid-to-late 1800s. Perioddressed interpreters greet visitors inside each cabin offering a living history of the home and its origin. The mood to explore might be triggered by art, dining, shopping, or the wonders of nature. Fort Worth’s west side meets all these interests and then some!

STOCKYARDS & Stockyards Station are unique places in Texas: an exciting blend of old and new. The livestock industry began to develop here in the 1880s. There were cattle, sheep, and hog pens and horse and mule barns. The original wooden barns burned in 1911 and were replaced with concrete and steel buildings. Stockyards Station is proudly dedicated to the preservation of the livestock industry. Evidence of that is the twice daily cattle drives at 11:30 a.m. & 4 p.m. Refurbished livestock pens and sheds, some with the original brick floors, now house 25 shops including restaurants offering everything from roasted suckling pig to enchiladas. This is also where you can go to Billy Bob’s, the world’s largest honky tonk, historic Cowtown Coliseum and the Livestock Exchange Building.

by Leigh Lyons, Grapevine Convention & Visitors Bureau

Check out Grapevine’s 8th Annual SummerBlast happening through Labor Day weekend and featuring family-friendly fun. Travel back in time with the “Be The Dinosaur” exhibit at Grapevine’s Grand Gallery through September 18. See, do, and learn through exploring fossils and interactive displays. Visitors face real challenges with their dinosaurs designed to engage and address questions about their daily lives in an organic and open world format – How do I find food? Should I go it alone or join a herd? How do I defend myself against a marauding T. Rex? Can dinosaurs swim? Tickets are $4 per person ages 24 months and up. 636 S. Main St.
