WRITTEN IN FRENCH

At the end of the 1940s, Mathieu was the creator of "lyrical abstraction", an innovative pictorial movement that influenced a whole line of artists. Opening up the field of a new aesthetic freedom, Georges Mathieu's large formats were most often painted in a very short time, in front of the public, in the trance and the excitement of a totally spontaneous, inspired, definitive execution.

Lyrical abstraction is not only a movement, a school, it also manifests a desire to smash preconceived ideas and establish a new way of thinking.

The exhibition presented in the Petite Écurie of the Palace of Versailles brings together some fifteen large canvases, painted between 1954 and 1978, which concentrate all the art of a major artist of contemporary painting.

Exhibition Mathieu in Versailles, musée des châteaux de Versailles et du Trianon, Versailles, from 3 May to 2 July 2006.
