Inguimberty’s beautiful view of the Calanque de Sormiou
If you love Provence and haven’t seen ‘Poesie de Joseph Inguimberty’ yet, you are in for a treat. This Marseille-born artist painted the town and the calanques (wonderful pictures), then Vietnam where he was a teacher for most of his career. The exhibition is at the Musée Regards de Provence in Marseille (opp MuCEM) and is now extended until 3rd December.
Their other exhibition ‘Escales Méditerrannéennes’ which I have yet to visit is also extended until 28th January which is good news as it looks interesting. There are 80 works by different artists painting their impressions of different ports and landscapes from the Vermilion Coast to the Côte d’Azur, from Algeria to the Adriatic.
