constituted on the initiative of Mrs Godelieve de Vlaminck, in
collaboration with Mrs Pascale Krausz.
The landscapes of the Seine Valley are the subject of predilection of
Maurice de Vlaminck, settled in Chatou with his parents in 1893, then in
Rueil in 1905. From 1908 onwards, he moved away from fauvism and turned to
for his preoccupation with Cézanne construction.
With this Cézanne period in his work, we "note numerous
village views, a pretext for an interweaving of volumes, a synthesis
of forms and a facetted restitution of space, which owe as much to
to the painter's interest in African sculpture as to the interpretation of
Cézanne. "(Maïthé Valles-Bled in Vlaminck un instinct fauve, Musée du
Luxembourg, Skira, 20 February - 20 July 2008).
