Nicolas de Staël’s Provençal period was a major turning point in his life and his art. His time in Lagnes and Ménerbes in the 1950s was marked by a painful love affair and the inspirational discovery of the light of southern France. His imagination fired, he went through a phase of fever­ish artistic activity, using pure, bright colours, thickly applied. These are the works on show in Aix.
