New exhibition! Soulages, discovering engraved work

New exhibition: Soulages, discovering engraved work

On July 8, enter all the artist's shades of black in the new exhibition at Les Franciscaines in partnership with Millon Paris: Soulages, à la découverte de l'œuvre gravée.

A master of black and light, Pierre Soulages (1919-2022) developed his work in a variety of media: oil on canvas for the thickness and relief it allows, ink and walnut stain on paper, and various printmaking and etching techniques.

As early as 1951, he produced his first etchings, which are ten times rarer than his painted work... In this exhibition, Les Franciscaines presents half of his work, i.e. 25 etchings, all of which are now in private hands.

A rare opportunity for lovers of Pierre Soulages' art and of etching to discover these rare works together!

"My etchings are the result of a collaboration between the chance I provoke, the bite of the acid and myself".


Soulages, discovering engraved works An original and unique exhibition, to be enjoyed all summer long at Les Franciscaines!
Don't miss the guided tour of the exhibition: Soulages, le noir et la gravure at Les Franciscaines, every Saturday!
