A glass artist and luxury furniture maker who represents the French Art Nouveau style. Born in Nancy, he studied philosophy and mineralogy in Weimar, then trained in glassmaking at the Meisenthal glass factory and took over his father's business. At the 1878 Paris World's Fair, he exhibited "moonlight-colored" glassware made by mixing cobalt oxide, which attracted public attention. He continued to make technical innovations, such as overlaid glass, which helped to invigorate the Art Nouveau era with fantastical expressions. Many of his works feature motifs of plants and insects, and the fluidity and color tones are highly refined. He also established a furniture workshop in 1886, and achieved great success at the Paris World's Fairs in 1989 and 1900. In 1901, he established the Nancy School of crafts, establishing a base for Art Nouveau.

フランスのアール・ヌーボー様式を代表するガラス工芸家、高級家具作家。ナンシーに生まれる。ワイマールで哲学や鉱物学などを学んだのち、マイゼンタールのガラス工場でガラス製作を修業し、父の仕事を継いだ。1878年のパリ万国博覧会には酸化コバルトを混入させて得た「月光色」のガラス器などを出品し、世人の注目を集めた。その後も被(かぶ)せガラスなど技術上の革新が相次ぎ、幻想的な表現によってアール・ヌーボー時代の趣味を盛り上げた。植物や昆虫のモチーフが多く、その流動感や色調に洗練度の高いものがある。86年には家具工房も設立され、89年と1900年のパリ万国博でも大成功を収めた。01年には工芸におけるナンシー派を設立し、アール・ヌーボーの一拠点を打ち立てた。 [高見堅志郎] 『ガレ著、由水常雄他編訳『ガレの芸術ノート』(1980・瑠璃書方)』 [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
