It wasn’t written. Neither that Nicolas de Staël (1914-1955) would become a great painter, nor that his suicide would make him a myth, at the risk of being made a statue. The retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in Paris brings it back to its thrills, its experiments. It was necessary to move away from the legend, further reinforced by the total absence of filmed archives or sound recordings of the artist, astonishing for the time, but which can be explained by his disappearance before fame.
