    Charles Camoin: the free Fauve

Abstract

"Often described as the ‘Mediterranean Fauve’, Charles Camoin (1879–1965)— through his links with Paris and the bohemian life of Montmartre—joined the circle of the international avant-garde. Despite his affiliation with Fauvism and his friendship with Matisse, Marquet and Manguin, he never abandoned his artistic independence: ‘As a colourist, I have always been a free Fauve’. This catalogue will enable visitors to rediscover the painter’s work, and will feature one hundred paintings and drawings, some of which have never before been exhibited. It takes a closer look at some of the main historical and thematic episodes in the artist’s life, and analyses the developments in his pictorial language, based on the sensations of colour."-- On back of cover.
