Great Women of Art Ep. 6 (EN) - Aurélie Nemours

Épisode de AWARE (Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions) Podcasts par AWARE (Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions) · 9 septembre 2021 · 21 min

After the episodes dedicated to Maria Helena Vieira da Silva and Ana Eva Bergman, we would like to introduce you to a third female painter, a pioneer of abstraction, Aurélie Nemours. She was born in 1910 in Paris and died in 2005, and stands out because of the radical path her career took. You will soon hear her voice, a voice as abstract and radical as her painting. To introduce her in a few words, Nemours revolutionised geometrical abstraction by using simple shapes, colours applied in solid coatings, and often reducing her palette to black and white. She chose the horizontal and vertical lines and abandoned diagonals and curves. She worked in series that she called families, there are 22 of them in her catalogue.

The podcast Great Women of Art gives a voice to women artists of the 20th century. They speak about their work, their lives, the world around them and their achievements. Let us go in search of their presence, their secrets. Let us rediscover the hidden history of women artists through their voices.

Great Women of Art is a podcast produced by AWARE: Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions, in collaboration with the Institut national de l’audiovisuel, with the support of Maison Veuve Clicquot and the Ministry of Culture’s Délégation à la transmission, aux territoires et à la démocratie culturelle.
