This catalog, dedicated to the artistic legacy of Pierre Bonnard, highlights the uninterrupted continuity he has engendered with painters of today. Bonnard is not only "the very Japanese Nabi" but also a painter who knew how to open unknown paths, introducing through nature at the heart of his pictorial process, a new reading of modernity. Since his death in 1947, his reputation has experienced ups and downs, because this unclassifiable and unique work in its time has always been the subject of debate. It is neither avant-garde nor backward-looking; it belongs to another time, that of the longue durée which marks the origin of this fertile pictorial approach which reconnects, through its attachment to reality, the threads of memory, meaning and life.
Thus, the works of Bonnard, Geneviève Asse, Bathlus, Bardone, Bazaine, Bioulès, Blanche, Frydman, Kimura, Lesieur, Mangú Quesada, Marchand, Rothko, Sagal, Truphémus and Vieira da Silva are presented in this catalogue.
With essays by Isabelle Cahn, Véronique Serrano and Sarah Whitfield.
