Presentation of the collection of Félix Fénéon (1861-1944), art critic, committed anarchist and former director of the Bernheim-Jeune gallery, who advocated a decompartmentalized vision of creation and worked for the recognition of non-Western arts. The works presented - from Seurat and Signac to Bonnard and Matisse as well as works of art from Africa and Oceania - allow a dialogue between techniques, periods and continents.
