What is French art?

It consists of the visual and plastic arts (including architecture, woodwork, textiles, and ceramics) originating from the geographical area of France. Modern France was the main centre for the European art of the Upper Paleolithic, then left many megalithic monuments, and in the Iron Age many of the most impressive finds of early Celtic art.

Study art in France

Fortunately, there are endless options when it comes to choosing a location and a university for studying art and art history abroad, but France is quite likely the best. In the heart of Europe, French museums house some of the most famous pieces of art by the old masters. There is simply no better place to study oil painting, as well as a number of other time-honored art forms.

Cultural tourism

Not surprisingly, France is thus an incredibly rich destination when it comes to cultural tourism. Its churches and palaces, châteaux and fortresses, museums and galleries are a treasure trove waiting to be discovered. This page is a hub.

South France art galleries

The South of France has been home to a wide range of famous artists. Towns such as Arles, Montpellier, Toulouse, Collioure and Ceret all boast an impressive artistic heritage. Van Gogh, Gaughin, Picasso, Lautrec, Chagall, Miro, the Fauvist movement, and the Cubists group of painters have all come to work in the South of France for the "special light" and create some fantastic art and paintings.
