Suzanne Valadon in the Flesh

Suzanne Valadon in the Flesh

Valadon absolutely handles to blend some rather acidic colours. But that’s not really the full Valadon effect, which is truly instead one of weird postures, clashing fabrics, the a little outrageous. We ‘d not seen a great deal of Suzanne Valadon in the past– there’s not a single painting by her in a British public collection– and so while we found this thorough program fascinating and useful, we thought it could have done with a little wise modifying; we flagged a bit in the direction of the end, really feeling that as well many of the pictures and the nudes on the walls were repeatings on the exact same theme.
