Cézanne : Le regard en feu

A journey through the work of Paul Cézanne (1839–1906), a major figure long misunderstood and now recognized as one of the cornerstones of modern painting.

From his dark and tormented beginnings to his ultimate visions on the frontiers of abstraction, Cézanne never ceased striving to reconcile sensation and structure, to reveal on canvas the profound order of reality. Still lifes, portraits, and landscapes of Provence bear witness to this persistent quest for harmony. For Cézanne, seeing is an intense, almost searing experience: a fiery gaze that transformed the way we apprehend the world.

An event echoing the exhibition « Cézanne et nous » presented at the Grand Palais (23 September 2026 – 17 January 2027), devoted to the painter's decisive legacy.
