Grupo Montparnasse

Founding members, Luis Vargas Rosas and Camilo Mori among others, exhibit in the Salon d'Automne of 1920 in Paris where they meet Juan Gris, Pablo Picasso and other artists experimenting in the new trends of the time like cubism and expressionism.

Their first exhibition was marked by postimpressionist influences, notably the works of Paul Cézanne.

Their "Salón de Junio" in 1925 saw a new generation of young painters join the group.

Just as their comrades in Paris had, these creative men and women challenged the norms in Chilean painting, profoundly shaping a new world of art in their country.
