Homage to Jean-Pierre Pincemin, exhibition
From Monday, June 7 2010 to Sunday, September 19 2010
Delicate touches.
To pay homage to the artist Jean-Pierre Pincemin, who died in 2005, the museums of Angers, Roubaix and Céret are getting together to present his work in all its wealth and diversity.
A painter and sculptor who cannot be pigeonholed, who was passionate and who was always exploring new approaches, Pincemin was never afraid to break with conventions. The exhibition in Angers will put the emphasis on the period of free canvases of his early years (1967-1975) and then on the major paintings of his last years (1995-2005), which were both powerful and enigmatic.

Religious architecture meets contemporary art.

- Léon Riesener, from Romanticim to Impressionism - exhibition
Normandie impressionniste
From Friday, June 4 2010 to Monday, November 8 2010
The forerunner of impressionism.
The exhibition is dedicated to Leon Riesener (1808 - 1878), and it is the Museums of Lisieux which together hold the most important public collection of his work in the world, consisting of paintings, graphic works and daguerreotypes. This exhibition will demonstrate how the stylistic evolution of this artist's work shows him to be an important precursor to the Impressionist movement.
Leon Riesener visited Normandy many times from a very young age, with his cousin Eugene Delacroix. In 1857, driven by the need for new impressions and some solitude, Riesener bought a mill in Benzeval, where he continued his research on colour and then on the division of tones. With his subjects and his style of painting, Riesener was to pique the interest of younger artists such as Berthe Morisot, Renoir and Degas. At his death, the Impressionists were to pay him a special tribute. Renoir engraved a portrait of the older artist on the front page of la Vie Moderne in the issue of 17 April 1879.

- Painting in Normandy - exhibition
Normandie Impressionniste
From Saturday, July 17 2010 to Sunday, August 29 2010
Normandy in all its beauty.
The smaller Grenier à Sel in Honfleur will host the exhibition "Painting in Normandy" over the summer.
This collection was set up in 1992 on an initiative by the Lower Normandy region and partners, and today comprises over a hundred paintings, with famous artists and lesser known painters who depicted Normandy in the late 19th and early 20th century.
From Monet to Jongkind, from Lebourg to Delattre, from Marquet to Raoul Dufy, from Camille Corot to Eugène Boudin, from Paul Signac to Louvrier… the list goes on. The collection is as wide ranging as its name suggests, leading the viewer on a trail which crosses the phenomenally beautiful land of Normandy, with its dramatic coasts and peaceful landscapes, at this particular period in time.

This festival was born of a passion for blues, one shared by a number of locals who decided to work together. In 2003 they created an association and organised blues performances right there in the vineyards surrounding them. It was a great success and has been a yearly event ever since…

- The Cat's Smile - exposition
From Wednesday, March 3 2010 to Sunday, August 29 2010
Artistic wonderland.
Art is full of contradictions. Although diverse and omnipresent, it can also be elusive and abstract. The exhibition Le sourire du chat ("the cat"s smile") perfectly illustrates this paradox through a series of original works by a range of artists, from Bruno Peinado to Bernard Frize and Vincent Mauger.
From polyptychs in monochrome, the works on display trace the evolution of art in all forms, with particular focus on painting in the 20th century.
More than just a reference to Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland the cheshire cat which the title evokes is a symbol of the inherent ambiguity present in art.

The Canaris missed out on the title last season but remain the favourites to regain their Division 1 status next year. They will need to keep other teams at bay to regain this status.

Overcome frustration.
Finishing a surprising 5th in last season's French Division 2 championship, Angers missed out on Division 1 by just five points. It is a frustration that Jean-Louis Garcia’s players will need to overcome if they want to repeat last season's achievement, with a better reward at the end perhaps: the sweet smell of Division 1.

The Meanders of the Seine - photographs by Maxence Rifflet
Normandie impressionniste
From Friday, June 4 2010 to Saturday, September 25 2010
Enchanted countryside.
This exhibition entitled "The Meanders of the Seine" covers the countryside nestled in the looping meanders of the River Seine. Between Rouen and Le Havre, these loops ("boucles" in French) gave their name to a regional park which aims to preserve the delicate balance between a fragile environment and human activities. Each loop has its own particular topographical, ecological and cultural qualities but the river is a geographic structure and part of the collective imagination.
Maxence Rifflet has put together this photographic portrait, freely documenting this special area. The monuments - natural or built - will be recognised by those who know the area. Two abbeys, a vast forest, monks, a beekeeper, quarries, an ex-voto, forestry workers, interlacing charms, a little girl near a pond, fish flitting through the waters… discover this enchanted countryside of a slowly meandering river.

- Silk and the Barrel: France and China 1700-1860 - exhibition
From Saturday, June 26 2010 to Sunday, November 7 2010
A taste for Chinese luxuries in France.
In the early 18th century, trading between France and China allowed France to discover Asian goods such as tea, silk, porcelain, pearl, ivory, etc. The first boat to provide this trade link was the Amphitrite which docked at the port of Nantes. From this first taste, France was to develop a craving for Chinese goods. China was to attract intrepid Westerners, however the sack of the Palace in Beijing in 1860 was to mark the end of an era.
This exhibition invites you to learn about the relations between France and China during this 1700 - 1860 period. Come and examine some of the precious objects from this period, loaned for the occasion by major museums such as the Musée Guimet in Paris.
This is a new and refreshing take on the age-old relationship between two countries.

Impressionist themes in video art.
Landscapes, intimate scenes, perception, the city ... These themes so dear to the impressionists are taken up by young artists who exhibit their work at the department civic building in Rouen.

These 20 video artists from all over the world also aim to show that the artists of the 19th century were surprisingly modern.

- The "Normandie" and her maiden voyage: Le Havre - New York - exhibition
Le Normandie s'affiche sur le front de mer
From Thursday, May 20 2010 to Thursday, September 30 2010
An exceptional crossing.
Since 2009 the Tourist Office in Le Havre has continued with its annual project to transform the promenade by the beach, beside the beach huts, in to an open air gallery dedicated to photography during the summer months.
After last year's exhibition Visitors to Le Havre, this year's display will focus on the Normandie, the legendary French ocean liner. On 29th May 1935, 75 years ago, this jewel of the Compagnie Générale Transatlantique was officially launched on her maiden voyage to New York, from Le Havre.
The newpapers dispatched their finest writers to cover this event (Blaise Cendrars, Colette, Claude Farrère… ), and VU Magazine was not to be outdone, sending Roger Schall to photograph this momentous event. Sixty large format photographs will be on display here, for passers by to witness the exceptional atmosphere of the launch of this famous ship.

Eure at the time of impressionism
A member of Belgium's Royal Academy since 2008, Georges Rousse exhibits 250 photographs of the Eure to Vernon this summer. You may ask why? The act of picturing that he manages to reproduce with photography. Painter, sculpture and architect, Rousse seeks to discover every detail about this profession in order to capture this particular act of picturing. In Vernon, it is impressionism and creation of modern painting that are once more put to the fore. But this time, with the precise aim of finding a new image to the department. Acts of picturing are for example expected to take place with school children from Vernon. A way for Georges Rousse to pass on his art to an area he is particularly fond of.

- Victory! 65th Anniversary of the End of Nazism - exposition
From Wednesday, June 23 2010 to Friday, December 31 2010
Battle of Berlin.
This original exhibition focuses on the Battle of Berlin, the last combat which crushed Berlin and which left Hilter surrounded, leading him to commit suicide on 30th April 1945, thus putting an end to the Nazi regime. However, the price of freedom with this victory was high for the Soviet Union which lost 26 million men.
This exhibition has been made possible thanks to the collaboration of the Museum of the Great Patriotic War in Moscow, and the Central Museum of Armed Forces in Moscow together with the Caen Memorial. This is the first exhibition of this magnitude on this subject to take place in Western Europe.

- Weather Reports - exhibition
Normandie impressionniste
From Monday, June 7 2010 to Thursday, October 7 2010
Impressions of light.
Weather Reports illustrates an artistic desire to explore contemporary forms through sunlight: three artists Spencer Finch, Ann Veronica Janssens (as yet unconfirmed), and Martin Oppel will show us how. Here the colour of a beam of light or a cluster of balloons appears to take on the colour of the sky. The artists' sensitive search for objects revealed by sunlight - an idea which was so fashionable in the 19th century - does not necessary bring the impressionist movement to mind. On the contrary, certain artists who employ this method might not even be aware that it was the impressionists who first touched upon this idea.

- Impressionist Ceramics - exhibition
Normandie impressionniste
From Friday, June 4 2010 to Sunday, September 26 2010
Impressionism on pottery.
Discover around a hundred pieces at this exhibition entitled Impressionist Ceramics, which explores the idea of expressionism within the artistic field of pottery and ceramics.
Between 1872 and 1881 the Parisian experimental ceramics manufacturer, Haviland de Limoges, run by Félix Bracquemond, produced slip eathernware pottery which was then decorated by painters from the impressionist circles.
With the help of coloured slip, or liquid clay, applied with a brush, the artists could work as if on canvas: with impasto, depicting fleeting moments and brilliant landscapes.

Festival Chroniques Nomades
Festival de la photographie de voyages et d'aventures
From Saturday, June 26 2010 to Sunday, August 29 2010
Sailing through the camera lens…
Set up in 1997 in the harbour town of Honfleur in Normandy, the Festival Chroniques Nomades invites the public once again to sail the high seas of travel photography. Honfleur itself is historically notable as the hometown of many an explorer and navigator.
The festival Chroniques nomades is an invitation, a travel ticket so to speak. The town of Honfleur is the last port of call before the spectator sets sail like the great nomads of yore towards uncharted lands…
This is an opportunity for inhabitants and visitors to the coast of Normandy to widen their horizons, and discover the art of photography in exotic and far-flung places. Visitors can get a snapshot of the world of photography thanks to an increasing number of visiting professionals, both the well-travelled and the budding young talents of tomorrow.

- The Degas of the Senn Donation - exposition
Normandie impressionniste
From Saturday, June 19 2010 to Sunday, September 19 2010
An exceptional collection of drawings.
In 2004 Hélène Senn-Foulds donated a collection which belonged to her grandfather, Olivier Senn, to the Malraux Museum. This passionate collector with refined and sensitive tastes amassed a noteworthy collection of the art of his time.
Among the 205 or so works by artists such as Courbet, Delacroix, Corot, Pissarro, Renoir, Monet, Sisley, Sérusier, Vallotton, Bonnard, Marquet, Matisse and Derain, the collection also includes an exceptional selection of drawings and pastels by Degas, many of which have never before been exhibited in public.
Most of these works were executed in the artist's youth: preparatory drawings for major works. This is a collection which bears witness to the original and refined taste of this collector who did not just buy at random but sought out a coherent collection of works which appealed to him, in which a love of line comes through as the dominant theme.
In this exhibition organised by the Malraux Museum these 47 works will be accompanied by others belonging to the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.
