…another in the series of unexpected museum closures.
The Musée Angladon, one of Avignon’s best galleries, is now closed until 10th
March. The reason?….the dreaded ‘travaux‘.
But there’s good news ahead in that their next expo looks lovely. ‘La Légereté Raoul Dufy’ which opens on 7th April will be showing 60 works from a private collection. Here is a taster, entitled ‘La Chambre a Aix 1944’: 
The South of France. Enchanted by the deep blue of the Mediterranean, the olive trees, poppies, irises and that dazzling light, artists found their creativity flourished under the hot sun. My new book takes you on a journey visiting museums and galleries as well as artists’ studios and their favourite painting spots. From Van Gogh in Arles, to Signac in Saint-Tropez; from Cézanne in Aix, over to Nice for Renoir and Matisse, the story unfolds of artists who knew each other and painted together in the warm south. Prepare too to meet colourful local artists who captured their beloved Provence for us to enjoy.
