Les impressionnistes et la fête
Conference
03 April 2025
Thursday 3 April 2025 at 6.30 pm.
Here come the fine days, the mild evenings, the desirable shade. Guinguettes, lunches on the grass, concerts under the golden vaults of the halls or the foliage of the Tuileries, balls, theater: society amuses itself under the gaze of the painters.
The railway and the electricity fairy multiply the possibilities of escape for the wealthy as well as for the most modest.
In this unique conference by Fabrice Roy, we will set off on the paths of celebration with Manet, Renoir, Monet, Krøyer, Béraud, Toulouse-Lautrec, Degas, Cassatt, and so many others. We will experience a real immersion in this universe of light and colors, vibrating to the sound of these voices now extinguished but so current and present in our hearts… »
Fabrice Roy – Speaker:
Passionate about lyrical art, history, literature and painting, Fabrice Roy was assistant secretary of the Society of Friends of the Museum of Impressionisms in Giverny. His taste for theater and poetry led him to write and stage original shows performed on prestigious stages and in particular “Monet and Clemenceau, a friendship”. A communications teacher at the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis, he is developing a series of conferences on the theme of the history of art and French life in the 19th century.
