1885 -1925 · Paris, Section d'Or and French Cubism
Geometric shots, light color and attachment to the visible world give Roger de La Fresnaye a unique voice within French Cubism.
Roger de La Fresnaye was born in Le Mans in 1885 and died in Grasse in 1925. Coming from an officer's family, he studied at the Académie Julian then at the École des beaux-arts before joining the Académie Ranson, where Maurice Denis and Paul Sérusier opened it to a decorative construction of the surface. From 1910, the discovery of Cézanne and cubism transformed his language. He participated in the Section d'Or group and exhibited at the Salons des Indépendants and d'Automne. Unlike 1910, the discovery of Cézanne and cubism transformed his language. He participated in the Section d'Or group and exhibited at the Salons des Indépendants and d'Automne. Unlike an almost monochrome analytical cubism, La Fresnaye retained light colors, readable volumes and a strong link with the subject. Still life in the coffee maker breaks down tables and objects into firm plans without deleting their daily presence. The Canal, a Breton landscape and the village beyond Meulan transpose this geometric structure into nature: hills, houses and water become interlocking masses. Naked in a landscape connects the tradition of the classical figure to a modernized space. His masterpiece The Conquest of the Air, painted in 1913, famous aviation, flag and contemporary sociability in a cubist monumentality. Mobilized in 1914, La Fresnaye contracted a serious lung disease which then limited his work. Mobilized in 1914, La Fresnaye contracted a serious lung disease which then limited his work. After the war, his painting partially moved away from Cubism towards a more linear drawing and meditative figuration. His short career reveals a balanced modernity, where geometry and emotion continually remain linked. The "Roger de La Fresnaye" selection notably compares Le Canal, a Breton landscape and Nus dans un landscape. His reading favors figures.
La Fresnaye never dissolves the world in geometry: the cubist plan clarifies the object, the body and the landscape.
