The exhibition and its catalogue will look back on this close collaboration between the Parisian dealer and the American collector, and more broadly on the network of collectors and dealers the painter worked with during his lifetime. Around fifty works will be on display, some selected from these two institutions' collections and others key artworks on loan from European and American institutions, including The Sleeping Gypsy, a masterpiece conserved at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

In the bright light of his final years, Matisse invented a new language: that of cut-out forms and pure color. More than 300 paintings, drawings, books and cut-out gouaches retrace, between 1941 and 1954, the journey of a free artist in perpetual motion.

The exhibition Matisse. 1941-1954 sheds light on the final years of Henri Matisse's career, between 1941 and 1954, through more than 300 works - paintings, drawings, cut-out gouaches, illustrated books, textiles and stained glass - from the Centre Pompidou collection and major international loans. It reveals the multidisciplinary scope of his practice during this period, while bringing together an exceptional group of cut-out gouaches.

Conceived as a journey through the painter's universe, the exhibition recreates the vibrant atmosphere of his ever-changing studio. An invitation to discover Matisse's flourishing "garden," room after room.

From the 18th century to the Kpop wave, discover the roots of a visual culture that has conquered the world!

A major cultural powerhouse, South Korea is now setting trends and inspiring a globalized generation. At the forefront of this wave, K-Beauty is imposing a holistic approach to beauty that is typically Korean and establishing a true aesthetic. Going beyond simple cosmetics, it is forging new standards and creating striking and unique imagery.

Bringing together masterpieces from the collections of the Guimet Museum and major South Korean institutions (paintings, photographs, advertisements, dresses, and beauty accessories from the 18th century to the present day), the « K-Beauty » exhibition deciphers its codes and shows how they are part of a centuries-old tradition, between balance and virtue, naturalness and sophistication.

Through this exhibition, visitors will discover how a distinctly Korean aesthetic has been consolidated, with certain standards - forged since the late Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910) - retaining their appeal to this day and becoming the subject of tributes and numerous reinterpretations. « K-Beauty » highlights the evolution and enduring nature of the concept of Korean beauty, from the second half of the 18th century to the contemporary globalized world.
