Les Hommes Bathers

The gallery's
opinion

“Les Hommes Bathers”, as much as they are men, belong to the series of Cécile Colombo’s Bathers.

Cécile Colombo‘s bathers elicit all sorts of reactions from visitors to our gallery; the most frequent ones are smiles and benevolent tenderness.

The artist is particularly attentive to the creation of motifs that tell us about the joyful and positive fashion of the 1970s. Bright colours and the timeless wifebeater…

It is also her own story that she tells us, when as a child in Marseille, she accompanied her aunts to the beach, who themselves met their beach friends. “Les Hommes Bathers” is the male version of this smiling series. A picture full of happy nostalgia and affectionate memories.
