We admire the works of Vermeer, Van Gogh, and Mondrian at the Bassin des Lumières in Bordeaux
After enchanting visitors at the Carrières des Lumières, the masters of Dutch painting have joined the Bassin des Lumières until January 2025, delighting guests with their captivating works. We start with Vermeer's portraits, Rembrandt's chiaroscuro, Jan Steen's festive tavern, the marine touches of Hendrick Cornelisz Vroom, the realm of gods by Abraham Bloemaert… And the grand finale: Van Gogh's vibrant and emotional brushstrokes that accompany us to the exit, with his colorful, dreamlike night paintings.
Next, we dive into the world of the architect of colors, Mondrian. From his Dutch landscapes to his grids of primary colors, the exhibition invites us to follow the artistic evolution of the painter, who breaks free from traditional painting to immerse himself in a vivid art style.
A big splash of emotions ahead!
