On loan to the Musée de Céret

27 June - 29 November 2026

The Gallery Lends Two Works to the Exhibition “Picabia, Méditerranée. Picasso, Delaunay, Laurencin…” at the Musée d’Art moderne de Céret

Dedicated to a pivotal period in Francis Picabia’s career, the exhibition offers a fresh perspective on his work by highlighting the influence of his travels between New York and Barcelona, as well as the fundamental role that Iberian and Catalan culture played in shaping his artistic language. A leading figure of the avant-garde movements of the 1910s and 1920s, Picabia is presented as a key protagonist in the international artistic exchanges of the period.

Bringing together nearly one hundred works, the exhibition places Picabia’s oeuvre in dialogue with that of artists from his circle, including Marcel Duchamp, Suzanne Duchamp, Robert Delaunay, Sonia Delaunay, Marie Laurencin, Natalia Goncharova, Albert Gleizes, Juliette Roche, Kees van Dongen, and Pablo Picasso. It highlights the circulation of ideas and the artistic experimentation that shaped the European and American avant-garde movements of the early twentieth century.

The exhibition benefits from exceptional loans from major French and Spanish institutions, including the Centre Pompidou, the Musée de l’Orangerie, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza, and the Musée Picasso in both Paris and Barcelona.

The gallery is proud to contribute to this major exhibition through the loan of one work by Francis Picabia and one work by Marie Laurencin from its collection. These two loans reflect the artistic dialogue at the heart of the exhibition and contribute to highlighting the aesthetic exchanges that defined the avant-garde movements of the early twentieth century.

The gallery is pleased to lend its painting by Douanier Rousseau, Portrait de femme au bouquet de fleurs (Clémence Boitard, the artist's first wife) as part of the exhibition The Wonderful World of the Naïf Painters at the Shanghai Jiushi Art Museum.

This marks the inaugural exhibition of Naive Art painters in China. The event promises to immerse audiences in a pure, simple, and fantastical artistic dream crafted by nine representative artists, including Henri Rousseau, the founder of the Naive School. These artists form a group driven by boundless creativity, enthusiasm, and a profound imagination for art and a better life. Through their unique and natural perspectives, they observe, record, and depict everyday subjects, expressing their most genuine inner emotions. The exhibition is divided into five major sections and will feature over 50 oil paintings from Naive Art. The nine artists showcased are Camille Bombois, Andre Bauchant, Seraphine Louis, Henri Rousseau, Dominique Peyronnet, Jean Eve, Ferdinand Desnos, Louis Vivin, and Rene Rimbert.
