An opportunity also to return to the genesis and history of this famous masterpiece from 1911, one of the emblematic works of MoMA since its acquisition in 1949. The artist there represents his studio and the paintings, sculptures and decorative objects it contains. This ode to color will continue with a celebration, in the form of a retrospective, of the centenary of the American abstract artist Ellsworth Kelly (1923-2015), author of a work of fascinating vitality and claimed hedonism.
