Description

Like Brianchon, Oudot and Cavaillès, Gisèle Ferrandier was among the artists termed "The Children of Matisse" ... and it is easy to see why. With the colours of her delicate and luminous palette, Gisèle transforms reality, without rejecting it.

Here is a wonderful eary work by her, dating from the early 1930s. Depicted is almost certainl the village square of Ceret in the Pyrenees, a village popular with artists and intelligensia at the time. Picasso, Braque, the poet Max Jacob, Chaim Soutine, Juan Gris and Marc Chagall all spent time and worked there. See attachet a view of the Ceret village square by Pinchus Kregmegne!

Like most of the women artists active durng the first half of the twentieth century, Gisèle was modern, fearless and a traveller: she worked in Morocco and Spain. Paintings by her are now in the collections of the museums of Marseille, Toulouse, Bayeux, Ceret and Pau. A large retrospective exhibition of her work was shown at the Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris in 1970.
