Vasarely, the Hungarian Op-Art masterpieces in Aix-en-Provence

The work of  Victor Vasarely has played a role in my whole life. As a child I just wondered the amazing shapes and colors hanging on the wall, after that as I understood the meaning of this form play I began to admire the master of Op-Art. I already visited the Hungarian Vasarely Museums, but this time I had the chance to see this masterpieces in "live size". The Fondation Vasarely in Aix-en-Provence was planed by Vasarely himself and he decided to give a honeycomb shape to every single room, so there are 6 walls with 6 works in each room. This kind of paintings really need space so you can actually fell the 3D effects, the colorplay and the "moving" paintings. As I am a really big fan of him, I just felt myself so powerful after seeing all of this. I hope the photos can explain why.

Gordes and Bonnieux, the perfect French movie locations

The French locations in the movie A good year were filmed in Gordes and Bonnieaux , both beautiful historical, hill villages in Provence. The Hungarian translation of this movie shows the atmosphere better: Wine, Delight, Provence. The landscape, the hills with the old town, the small streets and smells were so Provençal, I loved it.
