Julien Levy: Portrait of an Art Gallery by Ingrid Schaffner,

Julien Levy: Portrait of an Art Gallery by Ingrid Schaffner,
Julien Levy (1906-1981) was one of the most influential art dealers of the twentieth century. The Julien Levy Gallery, which opened in New York in 1931 and closed in 1949, played an essential role in the shift of the cultural avant-garde from Paris to New York. It was the first American gallery to sponsor a show on Surrealism and to champion Neoromanticism, Magic Realism, and Machine Abstraction. Luis Bunuel's film "Un Chien Andalou and Joseph Cornell's "Rose Hobart were first screened in the gallery. Among the artists Levy exhibited were Eugene Atget, Constantin Brancusi, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Joseph Cornell, Salvador Dali, Walt Disney, Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, Walker Evans, Leonor Fini, Naum Gabo, Alberto Giacometti, Arshile Gorky, Frida Kahlo, Fernand Leger, Rene Magritte, Lee Miller, Man Ray, Ben Shahn, and Dorothea Tanning. Levy also initiated the cocktail opening.This book, which accompanies a retrospective exhibition on the Julien Levy Gallery in New York, includes reproductions of paintings, photographs, and film stills from museum and private collections, as well as of art and ephemera from Levy's own collection. The book offers recollections of Levy and his gallery from several angles. Dorothea Tanning reminisces about her lifelong friendship with her first dealer. Ingrid Schaffner surveys the evolution of Levy's enterprise from combination curiosity shop, exhibition space, and performance site into a model for the contemporary art gallery. Steven Watson discusses Levy's personal and professional affiliations with the "Harvard Moderns"--Alfred Barr, Jr., and A. Everett Austin among them. Carolyn Burke looks at Levy's complex relationship with his mother-in-law, poet andpainter Mina Loy, who acted as his agent and mentor in Paris. Finally, Lisa Jacobs provides a chronology of the events of the gallery and of Levy's life."Published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Equitable Gallery, New York.

His motto is "One without aesthetic sense can't help being cheated out of his money. People who are interested in Japanese art can learn about Japanese art can learn about Japanese art like pottery, katana (sabers), and ukiyo-e (traditional woodblock paintings), all of which are now highly rated worldwide. The owner of the gallery, Reiji Fujita, once was a curator in the world of Gallery Fake, starting with anything you know, from Vincent van Gogh to Leornardo da Vinci! On a wharf, which faces Tokyo Bay, there is a Japanese manga by Fujihiko Hosono.

The owner of the gallery, Reiji Fujita, once was a learned curator with remarkable memory, keen aesthetic sense, great skill for restoration of paintings and sculptures.
