Giverny musee des impressionnismes 2013. Signac, colours of water. From March 29th to July 2nd 2013. Within the framework of the second edition of the Impressionist Normandy festival devoted to the topic of water, the museum of Giverny impressionisms organize an exhibition about « Signac, colours of water ». Like Claude Monet, Paul Signac found a source of constant inspiration in the evocation of water and of her colors. Since the first marines painted on the Norman littoral with a strength and a freedom impressionists until full harbour architectures with the bright colors of post-war period, the description of water and the sky offered to Signac an inexhaustible pretext to multiply the chromatic variations.
