Bruno CHENIQUE published this year this interesting article on Édouard Manet.
Last year, on the occasion of an exhibition dossier organised around a Portrait of a Black Man belonging to the collections of the Denon Museum in Chalon-sur-Saône, he published this book, very well illustrated and thoroughly documented:
Citizens of the World. Black and Oriental Figures in Géricault, Paris/Chalon-sur-Saône, Lienart Éditions/Musée Denon, 2020
This work “convincingly demonstrates the centrality of Black and Oriental figures in Géricault’s oeuvre. For three decades, Bruno Chenique has explored the artist’s world, highlighting the revolutionary nature of his Romanticism. He therefore continues here a body of work marked by several publications linked to exhibitions, including the retrospective presented at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon in 2006, and the one focused on the studies for The Raft of the Medusa at the Roger-Quillot Art Museum in Clermont-Ferrand in 2012.” Excerpt from Alain Messaoudi’s article “Bruno CHENIQUE, Citizens of the World. Black and Oriental Figures in Géricault“, Revue d’histoire du XIXe siècle, 61 | 2020, 279–282.
