The fact that her works are being shown in this lovely village on the C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur isn&#8217;t a coincidence; Roberta Gonz\u00e1lez was a long-time summer resident there.  The exhibition explores both her artistic career as well as her links with this place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like <a href=\"https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/en\/2012\/04\/03\/roberta-y-julio-gonzalez-ivam-centre-julio-gonzalez-march-14-june-17-2012\/#.Xoc37JMzY_U\">her recent exhibition in Valencia<\/a>, this show retraces her artistic evolution.  It begins with her early works, which show the undeniable influence of her father.  She initially works in his style marked by Mediterranean classicism, before adopting his avant-gardist distortions of figures and forms.  The exhibition culminates with her later, mature works, full of movement, color and energy, which show figurative signs in an abstract environment.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery

she spends her summers from the 1960s. Indeed, while keeping her primary residence in Arcueil, outside of Paris (the house was purchased by her father in the 1930s), and the family&#8217;s country house in Monthyon, also near Paris, Roberta Gonz\u00e1lez purchases a terrain Bormes-les-Mimosas in  1960. She has a modernist villa built there, from a plan she designs herself, complete with a large artist&#8217;s studio with views of the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"811\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-811x1024.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"8321\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/lettre-r-gonzalez-a-e-sempere-dec-1960-plans-maison\/\" class=\"wp-image-8321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-811x1024.png 811w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-238x300.png 238w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-768x970.png 768w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-600x758.png 600w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-145x183.png 145w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-19x24.png 19w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-29x36.png 29w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison-38x48.png 38w, https:\/\/juliogonzalez.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/lettre-R.-Gonzalez-a\u0300-E.-Sempere-de\u0301c-1960-plans-maison.png 943w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 811px) 100vw, 811px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Lettre de R.
