The tribute season dedicated to Jean Hugo on Territoire M28, the fruit of a unique cooperation – between the Musée Fabre in Montpellier, the Musée Paul Valéry in Sète and the Musée Médard in Lunel – is open all summer and into autumn.
As part of its 2023 call for projects, M28 also supported the “Chemin Jean Hugo, sur les pas du peintre poète” initiative led by the Association des Amis de Jean Hugo. An itinerary that links the sites painted by Jean Hugo and shares his works with as many people as possible.
The exhibitions “Jean Hugo, le regard magique” at the Fabre Museum in Montpellier, “Jean Hugo, entre ciel et terre” at the Musée Paul Valéry in Sète, and ‘Jean Hugo, le regard magique, sa vie à Lunel de 1920 à 1984’ at the Musée Médard in Lunel, are an exceptional opportunity to discover or rediscover this artist and his home region, to which he was so attached and whose landscapes inspired him so much.
The exhibitions were accompanied by three vernissages on three different dates (June 19 at the Musée Médard, June 27 at the Musée Fabre and June 28 at the Musée Paul Valéry), marking the launch of the cross-programming in which M28 – Terres de culture played a key role, in the presence of Michaël Delafosse, François Commeinhes and Pierre Soujol and members of the association’s Board of Directors.
