Geneviève Asse (1923-2021) is a painter of silence: no bass drum rolls, but a universe composed of blues and incidental light, brushed in grapes or solids. Bleu Asse is elusive, difficult to classify in a color chart. The canvas diffuses light.

 

Inside my painting, I think there's a kind of framework. A secret architecture that's inside. And the paint covers, covers that too,” said Geneviève Asse to Rainer Michael Mason in 1977.

 

Entitled "Le bleu prend tout ce qui passe", the next exhibition at the Musée Aveyronnais focuses on the work of painter Geneviève Asse, bringing together some 70 paintings, prints and drawings.
