Wednesday Mornings with Bea: Raoul Dufy, The Joy of Painting
“My eyes were made to erase all that is ugly”
“If life not always smiled to me, I smiled to life”
Raoul Dufy
Bea chose to share with you the art of Raoul Dufy (1877-1953) because of her sadness facing today’s frighteningly chaotic world and its lack of harmony. Dufy will enthuse you with a poetical, lyrical, cheerful perception of life. He will warm you up with his contagious enthusiasm, unfolding a floating dreamlike world which breathes impressionistic freshness and the ephemeral beauty of what he chose to see and paint.
Through his use of color and line, Dufy succeeded to create a world where pain does not exist, a world where color is light, where light is color. Be ready for a total illumination of your spirits which pervades all of his work through what he called his theory of “couleur-lumière”; :Light is the soul of color, without light, color is lifeless.” His blues are quite astonishing…
Bea invites you to discover or reacquaint yourself with the magical work of Raoul Dufy, where our inner child will come alive again, where our dreams of simplicity and joy will sing forever.
