Félix Fénéon (1861-1944). The modern times, from Seurat to Matisse

The Musée d’Orsay and Musée de l’Orangerie and the musée du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac are joining forces to organise the first exhibition paying tribute to Félix Fénéon (1861-1944), an important figure in the artistic world in the late 19th and early 20th century. Anarchist, art critic, editor, gallery director and collector, Fénéon espoused an open-minded vision of creation at a time when art was on the verge of the shift to modernity.
