October 12–19, 2023
Join us on a glorious, art-filled journey from Paris to the south of France, with a focus on the work of painters and sculptors Pierre Soulages and Anselm Kiefer. Taking in some of the most beautiful locations in France and their exquisite art, we will encounter both hidden treasures and renowned collections, with private access, guided tours and exceptional dining along the way.
This seven-day tour will be supplemented by lectures, engaging conversations, and commentary about the area and its artists by art historian and scholar, Véronique Chagnon-Burke, Ph.D.
