About René Char

René Char (1907–1988) is among the outstanding French poets of the 20th century. Beyond his own literary activity, he was closely connected with important artists of his time. The personal and creative exchange with figures such as Georges Braque and Joan Miró opened an intense dialogue between literature and visual art. These connections were of great significance for Char’s artistic thinking and made him an important figure at the intersection of both art forms.

About Fondation Maeght

The Fondation Maeght in Saint-Paul-de-Vence holds a prominent position within the French art landscape. The house, opened in 1964, became an important venue for presenting modern and contemporary art. The Fondation is especially characterized by the interplay of exhibition spaces, architecture and the surrounding sculpture and garden facilities. In this way, a special cultural place arises where different forms of artistic expression are connected.
