Exhibition: Stay with you

On the occasion of the sixtieth anniversary of the death of Jean Cocteau, the museum conceived by him as a testimony of his art is returning to its historical setting.

Jean Cocteau died on October 11, 1963, leaving behind a work as rich as it is incredibly varied. The issue of his posterity and the future of his art was one of the artist’s main concerns in his last years of life, and Menton provided the solution by offering him the Bastion to set up his museum. In this showcase, decorated by Cocteau himself, he wanted to exhibit some of the most emblematic works of his dazzling career: colorful pastels, monumental tapestries, surprising paintings, and bold ceramics make up the original collection of this true testament museum…

Not to mention the famous series of “Lovers”, drawings that perfectly embody the Mediterranean inspiration of the artist. Sixty years after the death of the Prince of Poets, the Musée Jean Cocteau-le Bastion has returned to exhibit his historical work, paying a vibrant tribute to his guardian artist, making his words inscribed on his tombstone come true: “Je reste avec vous” (“I stay with you”).
