Exhibition

Tomi — Sun, 13 Nov 2011 23:14:59 +0000

A new exhibition – “Tomi Ungerer and the Masters. Inspiration and Dialogue” Will be held at the Tomi Ungerer Museum in Strasbourg to celebrate the artist’s 80th birthday.

November 18th 2011 – February 19th 2012

Approximately 300 works will be shown throughout the museum, a display that has been assembled from both private and public collections and the museum’s permanent collection treating the innovative theme of the illustrator’s work and its ties to the history of art. Indeed, specially selected pieces of his work take on numerous graphic, plastic and cinematographic references. A rich iconographic repertory of artists representing all styles and periods is therefore on view: the German Masters of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance [Baldung-Grien, Dürer, Grünewald, Holbein], Doré and German artists of the 19th century [Caspar David Friedrich, Ludwig Richter, Moritz von Schwind, Carl Spitzweg], Alsatian artists [Hansi, Loux, Sattler, Schnug], Dadaism and Surrealism [Arp, Ernst], satirical sketch artists [Busch, Daumier, Dubout, the caricaturists of Simplicissimus and Anglo-Saxon cartoonists Grandville, and Töpffer]. The exhibition also incorporates Bellmer, Dix, Ensor, Félicien-Rops, Goya, Grosz, Jones, Kubin, Lindner, Posada, Toulouse-Lautrec, von Bayros, Weaver and Wyeth. Dramatist Friedrich Dürrenmatt wrote that Tomi Ungerer “imitated no one, but borrowed quite readily”. This multitude of influences is an undeniable component in the originality of his art.

In celebration of the festivities organized around Tomi Ungerer’s 80th birthday the City of Strasbourg is offering free admittance to the Tomi Ungerer Museum on November 18th, 19th and 20th.

“Tomi à 80 ans” Par Thérèse Willer

Tomi — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 14:16:56 +0000

Exposition « Ogres, brigands et compagnie. Les livres pour enfants de Tomi Ungerer » au Musée Tomi Ungerer du 8 Avril au 7 Août.

Le musée présente la première rétrospective de ses dessins de livres pour enfants. En montrant une forte inclination pour l’absurde et le subversif, Tomi Ungerer réussit à renverser les tabous de la littérature enfantine. L’exposition est centrée sur ses productions de la période new-yorkaise (1956-1971), sans doute la plus féconde de l’auteur dans ce domaine. Elle regroupe environ deux cents œuvres dont une centaine de dessins originaux exceptionnellement prêtés par la Free Library de Philadelphie.
