EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "L univers est cree (The Universe Is Being Created)" captures the essence of Paul Gauguin's artistic genius. This black and white masterpiece, part of the Noa Noa Suite created between 1893-94 and printed in 1921, showcases Gauguin's post-impressionist style and his fascination with exotic landscapes. In this image, a group of women stands on a coastal beach in French Polynesia, their silhouettes blending harmoniously with the waves crashing against the shore. The night sky above them adds an air of mystery to the scene as if witnessing the birth of a new universe. Gauguin's woodblock printing technique brings depth and texture to every detail. Each wave seems to come alive through intricate lines carved into wood, while the woman's portrait emanates grace and strength. Through this artwork, Gauguin transports us to another time and place - Tahiti during the late 19th century. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we are reminded of Gauguin's exploration of different cultures and his desire for artistic freedom. "L univers est cree" is not just a representation of nature but also symbolizes creation itself - both physical and spiritual. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this print serves as a testament to Gauguin's enduring legacy as one of France's most influential artists. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in its beauty while contemplating our connection with nature and our place within the vastness of the universe.
