Musicalism

Musicalism (French - musicalisme) was an art movement created in 1932 by Henry Valensi in collaboration with Charles Blanc-Gatti, Gustave Bourgogne and Vittorio Straquadaini.

Painters in the movement used colour material for its vibrations - Valensi himself spoke of sentimental resonances.

Their paintings sought to synchronise colours and forms in space like a musician arranging his sound material directly in line with the emotions he or she was trying to express.
