Exhibition: Aleix Clapés, Güell and Gaudí's Enigmatic Painter
From 17.12.2020 to 30.05.2021
Palau Güell, Barcelona
www.palauguell.cat/exposicio-aleix-clapes-l-enigmatic-pintor-de-guell-i-gaudi
Organised by Diputació de Barcelona - Palau Güell
Palau Güell is staging an exhibition dedicated to the painter Aleix Clapés until 30 May 2021. This Barcelona artist (1846-1920) was Eusebi Güell and Antoni Gaudí's inseparable travelling companion and favourite painter for many years. An artist of amazing expressive power, he was also the painter par excellence of the Palau Güell and the only painter involved in the original decoration for the building, both inside and out.
The exhibition presents one of the most outstanding works by Aleix Clapés that was thought to have disappeared more than a century ago. It is titled El peó (The Labourer, ca. 1886) and was discovered during the preparation of this exhibition. As explained by art historians Carlos Alejandro Lupercio and Josep Casamartina, there is a family legend according to which Leon Trotsky bought the work in Paris in 1920 and sent it to the Kremlin. Today it is known, however, that the painting never left Barcelona.

This the exhibition aims to raise awareness of women painters in the late nineteenth century who dedicated their career to painting the flowers abundant in Catalan Modernisme yet who are so little known. We refer to the women artists who participated in the women's exhibitions at Barcelona's Sala Parés in the years 1896, 1897, 1899 and 1900.
In 1896, Sala Parés organised the first exclusively female show, as had been held in Chicago shortly beforehand. A wide array of women artists took part with the foremost aim of becoming known to the public.
These women's shows at Sala Parés became the turning point from which each artist could choose and pursue her career, a starting point for "normalising" these painters' artistic professionalism.
The most recurrent theme in such shows was flowers, which even merited a specific treatment for the still life. This was due to the fact that the women who enrolled at the School of Fine Arts, La Llotja, were prohibited from attending classes with nudes, hindering them from being able to choose a professional career in figurative or portrait painting.
These artists took the opportunity that society offered them and "used" flowers as a manifesto for their art. Gifted in composition and skilled in colour, some of them achieved notable results. In contrast, others pursued more irregular careers, while a large number disappeared from the art scene after marriage.
Curated by Art Historian, Consol Oltra, the show presents these women's works, some of which were exhibited at Sala Parés over a century ago.
