Paul Signac and the Color-Intensive World of Neo-Impressionism

The exhibition “Symphony of Colors. Paul Signac and Neo-Impressionism” at the Museum Barberini in Potsdam is dedicated to the French artist Paul Signac and his significant role within Neo-Impressionism. The central question is how Signac influenced the development of modern art through color, light, and painting technique.

The presentation features color-intensive landscapes, portraits, and interiors. The selected visual worlds make visible how differently Signac's artistic themes unfold: from expansive landscapes to human portraits to interior views. Common to all is the intense impact of color, which gives the exhibition its eponymous, musically resonant character.

Paul Signac and Neo-Impressionism

Paul Signac is one of the defining artists of Neo-Impressionism. The exhibition highlights his role in this art movement and simultaneously emphasizes his influence on modern art. Thus, the focus is not only on individual works but also on Signac's significance for the development of new artistic expressions.

Visitors can use the exhibition to discover Signac's color-intensive visual language across different genres. Landscapes, portraits, and interiors each offer their own perspectives on his work and invite a careful observation of the effects of color and composition.
