Overview

Far from the tumult of the avant-garde, countless artists get lost in anonymity. This is one of the features and the originality of the Museum of the Thirties. Who are the artists known as the “minor masters” who nevertheless make it possible to rediscover the poorly known art history of the inter-war period? This stroll offers an opportunity to ask yourself some questions. What does fame depend on? Aren’t there any more discoveries to be made? Isn’t there any room for a revision of the official classifications? A little artistic overview to shake up our habits and tastes, not to mention fashions!

Enjoy your exploration made up of some delicious surprises and reveries.
