As the current annual son-et-lumiere show over at Les Baux draws to a close, (Bosch, Breughel, Arcimboldo ends Jan 7th http://carrieres-lumieres.com/en), it’s always interesting to see what is next on the agenda. And the theme for 2018 is…
Picasso et les Maitres Espagnols.
It’s part of the vast ‘Picasso Mediterranée’ programme which is currently running in Spain, Italy, Morocco. A post will follow on the three exhibitions soon to open in Provence.
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.
