Talk:Joseph Inguimberty

Article expansion thoughts
Here are a couple of ideas to explore for this biography - to discover what made him notable or interesting - or what made his works notable or interesting - if desired:
 * Is there information about his parents and childhood that you can find in WP:Reliable sources, such as books?
 * Where did he go to school?
 * Did he have a particular artist interest or aptitude?
 * Did he exhibit or win any awards?
 * What are some of his notable works? Where are they located?
 * Was he inspired by a particular artist?
 * Did he inspire others?
 * Was he interested in a particular artistic movement?
 * What was his legacy? What did people remember about him or his works that was notable?
 * How did his French background and schooling influence the artwork at the school? And/or, how was his work influenced by Vietnamese art?

Here are some specific ones based upon the content of the article so far:
 * He was a "teacher at the École des Beaux-Arts de l'Indochine (EBAI) in Hanoi 1926-1945." - What brought him to Vietnam and Hanoi to teach? What drew him to the area?
 * "His teaching was appreciated for being less academic than the director Victor Tardieu." - What does that mean? What did he provide to his students in terms of inspiration or skill that might have been different than Tardieu?
 * "He shared with Tardieu a keen interest in Vietnam's culture." - What were those interests?
 * "Inguimberty encouraged his students to experiment with lacquer as a fine art painting medium." What was the result of the experimentation? Was it that the students created fine laquered works? Or, was there a particular technique? Did the work represent something new in laquer works?

Fortunately, there seems to be a fair amount written about Joseph Inguimberty, so if you want to expand the article, you'll likely be able to find some interesting information.--CaroleHenson (talk) 11:44, 12 September 2012 (UTC)


 * By the way, I added these questions - not as a "to do" list - but just as a way of kicking off some ideas about what could be added to the article - if you'd like to add any more content.--CaroleHenson (talk) 11:52, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
