Jeanne Rij-Rousseau (June 10, 1870-October 22, 1956) was a French Cubist painter and an art theoretician. Rij-Rousseau was born in Cand . From 1890 on, she lived in Paris and moved in an artistic circle with painters of the "Ile de la Grande Jatte" in Montmartre. She was a student of Maurice Denis and Paul S rusier. S rusier's ideas regarding the coherence between music and painting gave rise to her theory of vibrism, which is a middle course between the Synthetic Cubism of the pre-war period and Larionov and Goncharova's Rayonism. She was united to Juan Gris in a life-long and intimate friendship. From 1911 on, Rij-Rousseau exhibited her works in Salon d'Automne, Salon des Ind pendants and Salon des Tuileries. In 1920, she was a member of the artist circle called Section d'Or. She frequently traveled to South France, especially to C ret, and also to Germany, Belgium and Switzerland. Her paintings were displayed in Zurich, Brussels, New York, and Boston.
