Discover the Parisian artistic avantgarde as you've never seen it before...
The Petit Palais is currently hosting an exhibition that sheds light on the significant changes that took place in the early 20th century and how they influenced artists. If you're interested in learning about the impact of Fauvism, Cubism, Art Deco, and other art movements, this playlist is the perfect place for you.

Matisse is widely regarded as the greatest colorist of the 20th century and we can see why in “Harmony in Red” (The Red Room).

This painting is considered to be Matisse’s Masterpiece. The vibrant crimson red, and the rhythmic blue arabesque patterns populate the canvas and keep us stimulated as we gaze upon each corner of the canvas.
