The show also explores the critical role played by his wife and collaborator Adeline Oppenheim Guimard, presenting new scholarship that underscores her critical role as her husband\u2019s creative partner during his lifetime and ardent steward of his legacy.<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In other news, on the 14th of September, the Driehaus Museum is organizing a talk on <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/driehausmuseum.org\/programs\/detail\/le-style-metro-guimard-subways-and-the-modern-city\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Le Style M\u00e9tro: Guimard, Subways, and the Modern City.<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0Furthermore, on the 21st of October, the Alliance Francaise is organizing a\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.af-chicago.org\/events\/hector-guimard-a-forum-of-ideas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">forum of ideas\u00a0<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">dedicated to the works of Guimard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":60531,"menu_order":0,"template":"","app_discipline":[218],"app_city_tax":[223],"app_event_type":[242],"class_list":["post-60533","app_event","type-app_event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","app_discipline-visual-arts","app_city_tax-chi","app_event_type-exhibition"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Hector Guimard: Art Nouveau to Modernism - Villa Albertine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/va\/events\/hector-guimard-art-nouveau-modernism\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Hector Guimard: Art Nouveau to Modernism - Villa Albertine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Richard H.
