Curatorial Narrative In 1897, Flix Vallotton’s “La guitare” exemplified the burgeoning Art Nouveau movement, yet its execution defied the fluid organicism typically associated with this style. The artist’s deliberate use of linear brushwork and a black-and-white palette created an air of contained modernity, one that prefigured the avant-garde movements that would soon follow.Vallotton’s figurative subject matter was at odds with the prevailing emphasis on landscape and still life within Art Nouveau circles; instead, he chose to focus on the intimate, everyday moments of modern urban life. The guitar itself becomes a symbol of leisure and artistic expression, its presence imbuing the scene with a sense of quiet reverie.The black-and-white palette employed by Vallotton served to heighten the spatial clarity of the composition, while also allowing for an emphasis on line and texture that would become hallmarks of the Modernist movemen
