Introduction: On this page you will find an impression of the pictures that Odilon Redon exhibited at the Salon (=S) (1867-78) and it’s successor of the Société des Artistes Français (=SdAF) (1885+86), at regional exhibitions namely in Bordeaux (1860-83), at La Vie Moderne in 1881 (=LVM), at Le Gaulois (=LG), at the Salon des Indépendants (=SdI) (1884-87 + 1926), at Les XX (=XX) (1996+87+90), at La Libre Esthétique (=LE) (1894, 1895, 1901 + 1909), at the Expositions Peintre et Gravures (=EPG) (1889-93) at Durand-Ruel, at the Exposition Universelle in 1900 (=EU), at the Salon d’Automne (=SdA) (1904-06), at the ‘Armory show’ in the USA in 1913 (in New York, Chicago and Boston). And also at (larger) solo exhibitions at Durand-Ruel (=DR) in 1894+1900 + 1903 + 1906 and in Rotterdam (1907) and at (larger) retrospectives in 1917 at Berheim-Jeune (=BJ), 1920 at Gallery Barbazanges, 1923 at Gallery Druet and 1926 at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs (=MAD). I only render suggestions that are (quite) sure. See link for the identification of the paintings. See for more info the account. See link for info on the subscriptions. For info on the used sources see at the bottom of the main page about Odilon Redon. I render the pictures by form, in thematical order and a bit chronological. I hope this page also will give an overall impression of the works that Redon did made. Note: If you double click on the first (of a cluster of) pictures and then click on full screen, you can create a slideshow. Enjoy!
