Available all the year round on booking.

Modern Art Museum dedicated to  Douglas GORSLINE (1913-1985), an american painter and illustrator. 

The Art of Douglas Gorsline invites us to participate in a process essential to his own creativity, that of questioning and reassessing reality. In the early 50s, however, in the midst of his success, he came to seriously question the basic tenets of his art. He felt compelled to pause for a complete reappraisal of his artistic aims and a strong obligation to contribute toward a new way of seeing reality better. The inquiry became focussed on the work and ideas of the Cubists. He hoped for and was working toward the rediscovery of what could be designated as a reality of "objective appearances" to be seen newly in creative and inventive ways.


From 1964 to its death, this Burgundy lover has lived in Bussy-le-Grand.
