Georges Braque exhibition poster 2006


"Integrated exhibition of a retrospective set of sixty works (canvases, gouaches, drawings, watercolors, engravings and sculpture) that will reflect Braque's great periods such as the Fauve period, the Cubist period, the period of still lifes, ateliers, etc. In this way, his relationship with the avant-garde of the moment, his contact with Fauvism and Cubism will be reflected – from a new perspective – through the reductionist effects of architectural structures to geometric forms, visual illusion as well as representation. artistic of neutralized colors and complex patterns that were defined as analytical cubism".

"Georges Braque (/brɑːk, bræk/ BRA(H)K, French: [ʒɔʁʒ bʁak]; 13 May 1882 – 31 August 1963) was a major 20th-century French painter, collagist, draughtsman, printmaker and sculptor. His most notable contributions were in his alliance with Fauvism from 1905, and the role he played in the development of Cubism. Braque's work between 1908 and 1912 is closely associated with that of his colleague Pablo Picasso. Their respective Cubist works were indistinguishable for many years, yet the quiet nature of Braque was partially eclipsed by the fame and notoriety of Picasso" (Wiki).
