The south of France was a privileged destination for the modern artists in the 20th century. The mythical trips of Matisse and Derain, and of Picasso and Braque to this region were paramount for the birth of Fauvism and Cubism,two major movements in modern art. The unparalleled light, the harmonious life close to nature, the iridescent surface of the Mediterranean are often mentioned by the artists as inspirational for their work and the invention of new pictorial techniques and mediums. Visit three Mediterranean towns 鈥揘ice, Biot and Antibes 鈥 where major artists of the 20th century like Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall, Pablo Picasso, Fernand L茅ger, and Nicolas de Sta毛l chose to reside for some time. Understand through first-hand contact with this environment, the motivation for some of the most challenging formal innovation in 20th century art.
