Modern & Contemporary Art
In the 20th century, the French Riviera became legendary for Modern Art.
The world’s greatest artists found inspiration in the Mediterranean for its special light and art of living: Renoir, Bonnard, Matisse, Picasso, Chagall and their successors César, Klein, Arman, Niki de St-Phalle...
The Riviera, a favourite haunt for artists
|
|
Prestige foundations, fine art galleries, exhibition halls... the Riviera became a hallmark of artistic excellence in the 20th century with Nice, Vence and St-Paul forming a “golden triangle”, with nearly 25 museums and 500 exhibitions to visit.
