Around Fauvism in Provence” exhibition at Musée Yves Brayer
The 1904 Salon d’Automne was a major recognition for Paul Cézanne. He is considered the inspiration of a young generation that would challenge the history of art. The following year, at the 1905 Salon d’Automne, the works of a group of painters were brought together in the same room, provoking a famous scandal. Louis Vauxcelles jokingly dubbed them “Fauves”, and for a short time they represented the avant-garde of painting.
It’s in this vein that the exhibition of works by Provençal painters will be presented at the Musée Yves Brayer, bringing together, around Paul Cézanne, oils by René Seyssaud, Charles Camoin, Pierre Girieud, Louis-Mathieu Verdilhan, Alfred Lombard and Auguste Chabaud.
With them, the light of the South of France that has enchanted so many painters can only perpetuate the joy of living in Provence.

The Vasarely Foundation in Aix-en-Provence
Inaugurated in 1976, the Centre architectonique d’Aix-en-Provence, classified as a Historic Monument in 2013, is the core of Victor Vasarely’s plastic and scientific project. At the heart of a lumino-kinetic building, 16 hexagonal modules present 44 monumental architectural integrations whose common thread is optical art. These works are the fruit of a fruitful collaboration between the artist, architects and companies, with the aim of creating the “polychrome city of happiness”.
This reconstruction of the Palaeolithic cave opened to the public in June 2022, offering visitors the chance to immerse themselves in history, and more specifically prehistory, with its representations of animals and other cave paintings discovered in 1991 by Henri Cosquer. The experience revolves around the discovery of the reconstruction, followed by a tour of the spaces with projections, reconstructions of prehistoric animals and other themes linked to this playful place, which will appeal to young and old alike.
