This exhibition is conceived as a dialogue between the works of Bernard Buffet and those of the Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and Modern masters. From Blanche Hoschedé-Monet to Jean Dubuffet and Albert Marquet, each brings a fresh perspective to Buffet’s inspirations, research and inventions. Among Matisse’s bouquets de Caillebotte, his flowers vibrate with all their expressionist power, while the city views of Félix Vallotton or Maurice de Vlaminck seem to foreshadow his desperately empty landscapes. The works respond to each other, explaining and illuminating each other, and reminding us that art is an eternal dialogue across the centuries.
