Lausanne, the birthplace of the artist Félix Vallotton (1865–1925), is hosting the largest retrospective of his work ever, a tribute marking the centennial of his death. Part of the Plateforme 10 arts district, the Musée cantonal des Beaux-Arts (MCBA), home a very important collection of Vallotton’s output, and the Fondation Félix Vallotton, a centre for documentation and research, are taking a novel approach to an artist known for his lucid mind, critical spirit, and biting humour.
