Rhythms and Colors – The Modernity of Sonia Delaunay
During its first presentation in Berlin in 1913 at the Der Sturm gallery, Sonia Delaunay's famous painting, today named Le Bal Bullier (1913), bore the programmatic title Movement, Color, Depth, Dance, Bullier. This list of qualifiers reflects Sonia Delaunay’s ambition to synthesize her multiple explorations in this work. In this perspective, this conference questions the emergence of Orphism, a movement based on the observation of light and its ability to liberate colors, as well as the motif of dance and celebration as a vector for representing movement and expressing the energy of modern life. Woven throughout is the fascinating history of the Bal Bullier, a meeting and creation hotspot for the avant-garde.
