Picasso, céraméditerranée

From 3 May to 1 June, the Galerie Alexis Pentcheff is devoting an exhibition to the ceramic creations of Pablo Picasso, the fruit of his long collaboration with Suzanne and Georges Ramié's Madoura wor...

When he visited the annual Vallauris potters' exhibition in July 1946, one stand in particular caught Picasso's eye: that of the Madoura studio.
"Ma Dou Ra", an elegantly chosen name for the "Maison Doully-Ramié", in reference to the surnames of the founders, ceramists Suzanne and Georges Ramié (Doully being Suzanne's young daughter's name).

As soon as he met the couple, Picasso wanted...

The experience of the Madoura workshop in Vallauris

In the spring of 1953, Victor Brauner was in Golfe-Juan, staying at the Hôtel du Golfe. 
Through Jacqueline Lamba, Brauner met Picasso, who had already discovered new possibilities of expression around ceramics in Suzanne and Georges Ramié's workshop in Vallauris. The Madoura workshop thus began to produce, in small series, a wide variety of pieces in terracotta decorated by Picasso, wh...

It is the result of an intense preparation and a real attachment, in the course of our research, to the character of Dora Maar.  

Fascinating and moving Dora Maar.  We wanted to learn more abo...

A work from the Pentcheff gallery lent to the Giverny museum

Within the framework of the exhibition : "Côté Jardin. From Monet to Bonnard" at the Musée des Impressionnismes in Giverny, the gallery is lending a work by Henri Martin from its collections.

Between culture and nature, the Musée des Impressionismes in Giverny offers a walk through the Impressionist and Nabis gardens, revealing in a new light the sensitivity of the artists towards gardens. 
The theme of the garden is dear to the Impressionists, painters of the open air, who were inspired by the new public parks of the capital and then devoted some of their compositions to th...

"In 1898 Henri Martin began to look for a large house in the Aveyron, the Lot or the Tarn et Garonne. In 1900, he found it in Labastide du Vert, at the top of a hill overlooking the river. He will build, higher on the slope, a studio with the appearance of a pigeon house. Innumerable paintings exalting nature and the peaceful life of this small village in the light of the Lot bear witness to th...

In the privacy of painters: René Gruau

Oatmeal and Bemberg fabrics

For more than thirty years, René Gruau invented and reinvented advertising images for the Italian firm Bemberg. This brand is not well known today, yet it marked a remarkable evolution in the field of textiles and fashion by exploiting a patent allowing the manufacture of an artificial silk, cupro, which has gradually become essential in the sector of clothing.

In 2012, the Galerie Alexis Pentcheff was honoured to present a retrospective of Joseph Inguimberty’s work, sixty years after the only personal exhibition dedicated to him, held in his native city, at...

Born in South of France, Marseille, Joseph Inguimberty arrives in Indochina in the 1920s with a traditional perception of art, acquired through his artistic education. However, the painter demonstrates quickly a profound fascination for those exotic flamboyant landscapes, their unusual flatness and the damp atmosphere. There, Inguimberty approaches his art in a resol...
