19th -20th centuries · Provence, Mediterranean light and modernities of the landscape
Provence occupies a central place in the history of modern landscape because it confronts artists with clear light, readable reliefs and powerful geology. Paul Cézanne, born in Aix-en-Provence in 1839, gives this territory a decisive scope. Around the Estaque, the Jas de Bouffan and the Sainte-Victoire mountain, it does not seek the regional picturesque. Houses, pines, rocks and hills are rebuilt in color and plan ratios inclined to give lasting shape to the sensation. After him, many artists approach the South in different ways. Paul Signac and Henri-Edmond Cross fragment the pure tones to translate the Mediterranean brilliance. Armand Guillaumin intensifies purples, pinks and greens in lavender, gardens and hills. Félix Vallotton greatly simplifies the masses and gives the landscape an almost mental clarity. Raoul Dufy lightens the construction with a quick line and luminous blues, while Chaïm Soutine twists the roads, houses and trees to convey the physical instability of the place. Marsden Hartley, Anna Boch, Maurice Utrillo and René Ménard complete this panorama with looks from others traditions. The lavender fields therefore do not summarize Provence, but they condense several of its pictorial issues: cultivated bands, purple-green contrast, dry horizon and change of light depending on altitude. The collection brings together also villages, churches, roads, undergrowth, cliffs and gorges in order to show the diversity of the territory, from Aix and Estaque to Vence, Sanary and Bormes. A faithful reproduction must respect the differences specific to each artist: cézannian structure, saturation of Guillaumin, deformation of Soutine, flat areas of Vallotton or division of Signac, without standardizing Provence in purple decor. The "Lavender fields and Provençal landscapes" selection notably highlights view Animated landscape in Provence - Chaïm Soutine and Houses on the hill, Provence - Paul Cézanne. His reading favors light.
Modern Provence is not a common postcard: each painter tests his own idea of light, color and landscape construction.
