Current program
Bonnard et le Japon
Until October 6
In 2024, Caumont - Art Centre will dedicate its summer exhibition to the genius of Pierre Bonnard and the influence on him of Japanese art. This will be the first exhibition on the subject, showing how Bonnard – once known as the “Nabi très japonard” (very Japanese Nabi) – assimilated the aesthetics of Japanese art into his treatment of space, time and movement, creating works that renounced naturalism and impressionism. Works by the French painter will be exhibited alongside Japanese prints to illustrate the similarities and formal affinities between them, and the importance for Bonnard of this source of inspiration.
Caumont, which dates from the eighteenth century, is one of the most beautiful private mansions in Aix-en-Provence. Located next to the Cours Mirabeau, the mansion has a paved three-sided courtyard and more than 1000 m² of private gardens. The mansion’s salons, with their refined decor, recreate the atmosphere and aesthetic sophistication that were typical of the eighteenth century. The mansion’s elegant decor is ideal for hosting cocktail and dinner parties, business breakfasts, product launches, and weddings.
