Im Leben von Paul Signac
Das ganze Leben1895–1912
Gifts for five lotteries and support for the arts
Having prospered, Signac supports the arts generously: he sends regular cheques and between 1895 and 1912 gives works of his own for five lotteries.
summer 1904
Matisse in Saint-Tropez beside Signac and Cross
In the summer of 1904 Henri Matisse works in Saint-Tropez alongside the neo-Impressionists Henri-Edmond Cross and Paul Signac; the result is “Luxe, calme et volupté,” his most important work in the Divisionist technique. Signac inspires Matisse and André Derain, playing a decisive role in the evolution of Fauvism, although he himself did not admire the style when it first appeared.
1905
Buying Matisse's “Luxe, calme et volupté”
After the 1905 Salon des Indépendants, where Matisse exhibited “Luxe, calme et volupté,” Signac buys the painting — the first patron to buy a work by Matisse.
1908–1935
Leading the Salon des Indépendants: Fauves and Cubists
In 1908 Signac is elected president of the Twenty-fourth Salon des Indépendants and heads the Société des Artistes Indépendants until his death. He supports young artists and gives the Fauves and the Cubists a chance to exhibit their controversial works.
