Exhibition at the Musée de Montmartre, Paris, 15 March - 15 September 2024

Regarded from his early career as an incomparable innovator, the French painter Auguste Herbin (1882-1960) then almost fell into oblivion. He was, however, a flamboyant Fauve, then one of the inventors of Cubism, and finally, from 1918, one of the most important pioneers of abstract art, the creator of a language and a plastic alphabet with universal appeal.

Bringing together over a hundred masterpieces, this catalogue of the first Paris exhibition devoted to Herbin highlights the masterly work of one of the greatest French painters of the twentieth century and reveals the full extent of his genius. Through his works, it traces the painter's seven creative periods: post-impressionism, fauvism, cubism, monumental objects, new figuration, first and second abstraction.
