Art lover, you are spoiled for choice. However, if you are only in Provence or the French Riviera for a short period, you must be selective and organized. Hurry! The acclaimed David Hockney exhibit at the Musée Granet runs until May 28th. While you are in the Aix-en-Provence, the article below on ideas for spending a day in the city should be helpful.
This year's Carrières de Lumières show promises to delight these segments: From Vermeer to Van Gogh, The Dutch Masters and Mondrian, Architect of Colors. There is also a special program featuring TinTin - it's not just for kids. And, as Lynne at Aixcentric points out, why go to Rome when you can see Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel in Marseille? If you are on the Côte d'Azur, visiting Villa Kérylos is an absolute must.
While it's not art, Steve Wilkison recommends visiting the Tinée Valley for a fête de transhumance at this time of the year.
