BACKGROUND: FATE OF ARTISTS

For students from CM2 to 5e, Paris 

Synonymous with encounters and artistic effervescence, the École de Paris brings together artists from very diverse backgrounds such as Marc Chagall or Amedeo Modigliani in the pre-war Montparnasse district. Witnessing the political upheavals of Europe in the 1930s, some artists, in France and abroad, call on viewers to react to this rise in violence. This tour proposes to discover the works of these artists who have marked the history of modern art with their imprint.

  • 1st session: In the painter’s workshop at the MAHJ (duration: 2h30)
  • 2nd session: Resisting through art and literature workshop at the Shoah Memorial in Paris (duration: 3h)

Duration: 1 day or 2 half-days
