This exhibition at the Museum Barberini is dedicated to the reception of French painting in Russia. With over eighty works, the show (August 28, 2021 – January 9, 2022) demonstrates the extent of their international visual vocabulary around 1900 and places Russian artists of the period—from Ilia Repin to Kasimir Malevich—in context of Western European modern art.
A second generation of Russian artists in Paris at the beginning of the twentieth century became acquainted with Post-Impressionism and Fauvism, painting styles that experimented with bright, unmixed colors. Landscape painting became the first field of experimentation for artists such as Mikhail Larionov, Natalia Goncharova, and Kazimir Malevich. They considered themselves Impressionists before founding the Russian avant-garde with expressive Rayonism and nonrepresentational Suprematism after 1910.
The exhibition includes over 80 loans from institutions as well as from private collections.
Several paintings by Tarkhoff, from the State Tretyakov Gallery (Moscow), are represented there alongside his master and friend Konstantin Korovin.

Brochure Arrêt sur images. Plage... (Beach). 25/05/2021
This sixth brochure, written by Guy Abot and published by the Association Les Amis de Nicolas Tarkhoff, analyzes an oil on cardboard (51 x 65.5 cm), titled Plage on the back of the canvas.
It was made in 1906 by Nicolas Tarkhoff in Soulac-sur-Mer where the artist and his family were invited to stay by the collector Gabriel Frizeau. This one passionates about literature and art owns works by Marc Chagall, Eugène Carrière, Maurice Denis, André Derain, Paul Gauguin, Charles Lacoste, Aristide Maillol, Pablo Picasso, Odilon Redon, Georges Rouault, Nicolas Tarkhoff and Van Gogh.
During his stay in Soulac-sur-Mer, Nicolas Tarkhoff produced several portraits of Gabriel Frizeau, beach scenes and landscapes.
The paint, lively and colorful, is spread with vigor and speed; the composition is built with a succession of stretched and twirling keys. The characters and the tents in the background, reduced to the minimum of their structural aspect, blend into the decor in an almost abstract way, as if Tarkhoff were striving in the course of his brushes to restore the instantaneity of light and to freeze the action of the actors in the scene. Only the colors animate the shapes. Here, Tarkhoff remains faithful to the plastic language he explored in 1899 in Paris - and in 1897 in Moscow on the advice of his friend Constantin Korovine in the studio he attended before his departure for France - and which he restores in a fiery expressionist writing ...

Dynamic exhibition "Impressionism and Modernism in Russian Art".
March 18 - July 18, 2021
ARTS CENTER. Volkhonka, 15 Moscow.
The exhibition is devoted to the main modes of development of Russian art at the turn of the 20th century, as well as the decisive role of Art Nouveau and Impressionism in the formation of the Russian avant-garde from 1890 until the early 1940s.
"We want the viewer not only to familiarize themselves with Impressionism in painting, we want each visitor to be able to penetrate the very essence of this phenomenon. The entire exhibition is subject to the principle of constant movement and internal dynamics, "say the organizers.
The hanging of the canvases in the museum space changes throughout the exhibition. “New canvases appear and disappear over time, replace and reappear, but in a completely new place."
The exhibition showcases works by N. Tarkhoff alongside artists such as KA Korovin, IE Repin, BD Grigoriev, NS Goncharova, PP Konchalovsky, RR Falk, KA Veshchilov, NK Roerich, SN Roerich, VI Surikov, MV Nesterov, AP Ryabushkin, AK Bogomazov, LS Bakst, BM Kustodiev, V I.

Динамичная выставка «Импрессионизм и модерн в русском искусстве»
18 марта — 18 июля
ЦЕНТР ИСКУССТВ. Москва, Волхонка, 15
Экспозиция выставки посвящена основным путям развития русского искусства на рубеже веков, а также определяющей роли модерна и импрессионизма в становлении русского авангарда.
марта открылась динамичная выставка «Импрессионизм и модерн в русском искусстве».
мпрессионизм — наблюдение за непостоянством и попытка запечатлеть его на полотне. Мы хотим, чтобы зритель не просто познакомился с импрессионизмом в живописи, мы хотим, чтобы каждый посетитель смог проникнуть в самую суть этого явления.
Вся экспозиция подчинена принципу постоянного движения и внутренней динамики. Как живой организм, композиция полотен и их развеска в пространстве двух залов меняется на протяжении всей выставки. Новые полотна будут возникать и исчезать во времени, сменять друг друга и снова появляться, но уже в совершенно новом месте, а иногда исчезать и вовсе насовсем.
Полотна динамичной выставки расскажут историю русского искусства 1890-х – начала 1940-х годов. В экспозиции будут представлены художники, среди которых – К. А. Коровин, И. Е. Репин, Б. Д. Григорьев, Н. С. Гончарова, П. П. Кончаловский, Р. Р. Фальк, К. А. Вещилов, Н. К. Рерих, С. Н. Рерих, В. И. Суриков, М. В. Нестеров, А. П. Рябушкин, А. К. Богомазов, Л. С. Бакст, Б. М. Кустодиев, В. И. Шухаев, А. Е. Яковлев, Н. А. Тархов, И. И. Бродский, В. С. Сварог, А. В. Исупов, О. Э. Браз, Н. К. Калмаков, С. В. Герасимов, Тамара де Лемпицка, Ф. А. Малявин, П. В. Кузнецов, А. В. Шевченко и многие другие.

Parisian street scene (circa 1900).
Oil on canvas, 60 x 80.5 cm. Former collection of the Galerie Marcel-Lenoir, Paris. Private collection.
This painting was done in Paris, probably at the corner of rue Saint-Denis and boulevard Saint-Denis, at the foot of the eponymous door, from the window of a hotel (located at 293 rue Saint -Denis) from where Tarkhoff painted several scenes describing the door and the bustle of the boulevard with its cabs, horses and passers-by.
These scenes of boulevards at Porte-Saint-Denis were executed between 1901 and 1902. However, the signature, partially covered with “repentances”, is spelled “N. Tarcoff”, which suggests that this painting was made around 1900 , at a time when the artist signed some of his works "Tarckoff" or "Tarchoff".
This painting will be reproduced in the Catalog raisonné of the artist’s painted work in preparation by the Nicolas Tarkhoff Committee.
Парижская уличная сцена, около 1900 г.
Холст, масло, подпись в левом нижнем углу «N. Tarkhoff. Paris».
Эта картина была выполнена в Париже, предположительно на углу улицы Сен-Дени и бульвара Сен-Дени, у подножия одноименных ворот, из окна отеля (расположенного на улице Сен-Дени 6), откуда Тархов нарисовал несколько полотен, изображающих дверь и оживление бульвара с его извозчиками, лошадьми и прохожими. Эти сцены на бульварах в Порт-Сен-Дени были выполнены между 1901 и 1902 годами.
Однако, подпись, частично покрытая «исправлениями», подписанная «N. Tarcoff» говорит о том, что эта картина была сделана около 1900 года, в то время, когда художник подписывал некоторые из своих работ «Tarckoff» или «Tarchoff».

Nicolas Tarkhoff. Impressions of a Russian painter from Paris to Orsay. Exhibition at the Musée de l'Hôtel-Dieu in Mantes-la-Jolie February 19 to December 7, 2020. 05/08/2020
Exhibition curators: Guy Abot, Director of the Nicolas Tarkhoff Committee
and Jeanne Paquet, Head of the Heritage and Tourism Department.
Nicolas Tarkhoff's work has not been presented in a retrospective way in France since 1986. Sixty-one works are brought together in this exhibition, not far from those of his contemporary and friend Maximilien Luce, whose largest collection in France is held by the museum. The exhibition explores in a monographic way the two major chronological phases of his career: Paris and Orsay. By following this chronological thread, visitors can discover works from private collections as well as loans from the National Centre for Fine Arts, the Association des amis du Petit Palais of Genève and the Piscine-Musée d'Arts et d'Industrie André Diligent in Roubaix.
The exhibition catalogue (60 pages) is on sale for €18 at the Museum shop.

"Rooster".
Oil on canvas.
H. 107 x L. 82 cm.
Former collection Mrs. Marcel-Lenoir, Paris.
This painting was created around 1920 with the title "Coq" written in French by Tarkhoff.
On the torn label:
"Nicolas Tarkhoff" Coq "Orsay S [eine] et [Oise]".
The frame was reused by the artist to display this rooster, probably for the Salon d'Automne in 1921. An eponymous painting is present under the number 1915, but the lack of dimensions on the catalog does not confirm this assumption.
There is an old torn label, under this label, of an unidentified exhibition (before 1911) on which is written by Tarkhoff: "Chimère Paris". An eponymous painting is exhibited at the Toulouse Artistic Union Salon in 1907 under number 489.
This painting will be included in the Catalog raisonné in preparation by the Nicolas Tarkhoff Committee.

850 oil paintings by Nicolas Tarkhoff have already been collected 19/07/2019
Researchers from ALANT (Friends of Nicolas Tarkhoff Association) and the Nicolas Tarkhoff Committee are continuing to collect the painted works of the artist. 850 oils on canvas, cardboards or papers—whose images are known—have been gathered in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné (to date, in its digital form). Among these, more than a third are unknown or never been published.
This work, started several years ago, is carried on in order to collect and classify the documents related to this important work scattered throughout the world and to eliminate dubious or apocryphal paintings. It is based on the in-depth knowledge of Tarkhoff's art, acquired through the long experience of members from the Nicolas Tarkhoff Committee whose quality of expertise is recognized by auction houses and collectors. This work was initiated with the aim of getting the public acquainted with the artist's paintings and establishing a chronology that shows the diversity of his pictorial writing, the evolution of his talent and the subjects he enjoys.
The visit of private collections, archives and museums along with the reproduction of the artist's works in various publications and catalogs of sales are essential guides to bring this work to completion.
This catalogue raisonné will present the oil paintings according to a double classification, thematic and chronological. It will be bilingual (French-English).
We are grateful to collectors, institutions, museums (in France and abroad) and auction houses which have enabled us to gather this first phase of documentation.
Many paintings remain to be discovered (several hundred?); this is the reason why we invite the owners of the painter's works to come forward so that the we may include these works in the forthcoming Catalog raisonné of the painted work.
Booklet Arrêt sur images. Mi-Carême (Mid-Lent). 03/07/2019
This fifth document, written by Guy Abot and published by the Association Les Amis de Nicolas Tarkhoff, analyzes an oil on canvas, titled Mi-Carême and numbered 4 on the back of the canvas. It is realized circa 1901 by Nicolas Tarkhoff.
The artist stands at the window of a building on a Parisian boulevard. He paints directly on the canvas that serves as a shade for buildings. "These and the trees that compose the decor, retain their figurative, identifiable, while the crowd, horses and “chars“ move in vibrant spots, accentuating the opposition of static and kinetic. The bright shades, applied in fluid touchs, become as loud as a score of music. In a total lyrical abstraction, the colors dance, run, jump and intertwine on the canvas, punctuated by the energetic movement of his hand. No shape or volume is delimited by the line of the drawing; the structure is suggested by the more or less long or more or less pasted touchs whose optical fusion, combined with the interaction of contrasts, creates for the eye a brilliant shimmer. "
The painting, presumably presented at the Salon des Independants in Paris in 1901, was exhibited at the Grand Palais in Paris in 1967 during the exhibition "The beginning of the century to the Independents, 1902-1905". Titled on the catalog: Un coin sur les Grands Boulevards, le jour de la Mi-Carême (A corner on the Big Boulevards, the day of the Mid-Lent), n ° 98.

Placement of a commemorative plaque on the tomb of Nicolas Tarkhoff 02/11/2018
On November 1, 2018, a delegation from the Association Les Amis de Nicolas Tarkhoff (Nicolas Tharkhoff's friends) went to the Orsay cemetery (Essonne department, France) to place a commemorative plaque on the stele of the tomb of Nicolas Tarkhoff and his wife Jeanne-Yvonne Deltreil.
After cleaning the tomb, the delegation placed bouquets of chrysanthemums on it, flowers that the artist often painted.

June 2018. Booklet Arrêt sur images. Saint-Denis Door. 10/10/2018
This fourth document, published by the Association Les Amis de Nicolas Tarkhoff (Nicolas Tarkhoff's Friends), highlights two oils on canvas, made in 1903, by Nicolas Tarkhoff. From the window of the hotel room that he rents 6 Saint-Denis street, the artist performs these two paintings representing the famous monument. 1
With a boldness composition, Tarkhoff uses a plunging view that accentuates the dynamism of vehicles and bystanders. By skillful geometry, he builds a set of lines that form a triangle at the foot of the arc. A serie of diagonals is projected towards the center of the composition from the rue du Faubourg Saint-Denis, through the gap of the arch and, from the right of the painting, from the boulevard Saint-Denis.
The first studied painting is preserved in the Museum of Fine Arts Victor and Apollinaire Vasnetsov of Viatka in Kirov (Russia) and comes from the former collection of Vladimir Osipovich Hirschmann (Giršman), industrialist and collector. The second, 100 x 70 cm, has entered a special collection; it was presented at the Grand Palais in Paris in 1967 during the exhibition "The beginning of the century to the Independents, 1902-1905".

Coq au printemps (Rooster in spring).
Oil on canvas, titled on the back by the artist, 80.5 x 100 cm, circa 1919.
The landscape in the background is the countryside of Orsay. An eponymous painting is exhibited at the Salon des Independants in Paris in 1920.
In 1914 begins the First World War. Millions of men are going to kill each other, crushed in the hell of a modern war. During the weeks following the beginning of the conflict, Tarkhoff, in his house in Orsay, made the variants of a rooster standing on its spurs, who stood firmly on the flagstaff of the French flag. He also paints fighting roosters and, more peacefully, singing roosters. These roosters are those of his barnyard. He loves them for their beauty and their colors, for their proud character too. He trains them to remain motionless during the pose sessions and makes them singing by imitating their cry.
This painting will be included in the Catalog raisonné in preparation by the Nicolas Tarkhoff Committee.

Марк Шагал. Бумага, карандаш, чернила, гуашь, 13,3 x 20,6 см. 1911 г.
Центр Помпиду, Париж.
In 1911, Marc Chagall visited Nicolas Tarkhoff and drew the family members. Two sketches (1), stored in the Centre Pompidou in Paris, illustrate the bond of friendship that Chagall and Tarkhoff maintained before the First World War.
These two moving drawings by Chagall, signed, dated 1911 and titled in Cyrillic cursive script by the artist, come from a private collection. They were acquired by payment in kind in 1988 by the Centre Pompidou and are now kept in the storehouse of its Cabinet of Graphic Art.
"In Tarkhov's dining room": Chagall, who is standing at the end of the dining room in all likelihood, reproduces the decor of the room. With a cursive gestures, he makes a first draft in black pencil. The table, originally located at the center of the sheet, finds its place a few millimeters higher. The same holds true for other furniture elements which eventually freeze under the violet ink.
The room is soberly furnished: a dresser in the background, a chair on the side, a fireplace where a fire is burning on the left, a flower-shaped sofa on the right. On the round table with three feet and covered with a red tablecloth, a bowl of fruits and two cups of coffee. The floor is covered with large red tiles, probably in terracotta. The only decoration are two framed paintings hanging on the wall above the dresser—a still-life is visible on the one—, another one without frame, depicting a character, is hanged at the left of the sofa. Photographs or small paintings are placed on the fireplace mantel shelf; we distinguish a mother and child painting and some portraits. Mrs. Tarkhoff is wearing a blue blouse and a black skirt. She is sitting on a stool and is warming up near the fire; perhaps is she falling asleep. Tarkhoff, wearing his inseparable hat, an elbow on the table and his head resting in his right hand, seems pensive, unless he is dozing. Boris, his youngest son, is sitting to his right, while the eldest, Jean, has fallen asleep on the sofa. Here, Chagall interprets a scene in which the actors surrender to melancholy, reverie or sleep.

De Moscou où il naît, à Paris où il s’installe en 1899, attiré par les Impressionnistes, jusqu’à Orsay, modeste village de Seine-et-Oise où il choisit de vivre de 1911 à sa mort en 1930 – le temps du bonheur familial, puis des temps difficiles –, Nicolas Tarkhoff trace avec courage et ténacité son chemin d’artiste passionné.
