In the autumn of 1889, a young group of avant-garde artists in Paris formed a brotherhood to promote a radical new direction in art. Adopting the name Nabis\u2014Hebrew for prophets\u2014they sought to capture subjective experience and emotion in their paintings, prints, and drawings. <em>Private Lives: Home and Family in the Art of the Nabis\u2014Bonnard, Denis, Vallotton, Vuillard, 1889\u20131900<\/em> focuses on intimate views of home and family in the work of four artists of the Nabi brotherhood: Pierre Bonnard, Maurice Denis, F\u00e9lix Vallotton, and \u00c9douard Vuillard. It is the first exhibition to delve deeply into the Nabis\u2019 varied and sophisticated use of private domestic life as the locus for artistic inspiration. For Bonnard and Denis, this arena served as the perfect stage for depicting what Bonnard referred to as the small pleasures and \u201cmodest acts of life\u201d; Vallotton and Vuillard, however, hinted at the tensions and betrayals that simmered just below the surface of intimate life. Four brief vignettes enhance the understanding of the rich cultural backdrop of fin-de-si\u00e8cle Paris. The exhibition catalogue, thematically following the exhibition, will be an in-depth, beautifully illustrated publication providing new insights and updated scholarship on these important members of this influential artistic movement.<\/p>\n<p>This exhibition catalogue, for <em>Private Lives: Home and Family in the Art of the Nabis, Paris, 1889\u20131900,<\/em>\u00a0was produced with the support of the FRench American Museum Exchange (FRAME).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Mary Weaver Chapin, Curator of Prints and Drawings, Portland Art Museum, Oregon; Heather Lemonedes Brown, Virginia N. and Randall J.
