The Morozov collection: icons of modern art : exhibition catalogue

Uittreksel

Fondation Louis Vuitton will present THE MOROZOV COLLECTION, one of the world's foremost collections of Impressionist and Modern art. On view through July 25, this major international exhibition will bring together in Paris 200 masterpieces from the French and Russian modern art collection of the brothers Mikhaïl and Ivan Morozov. This will be the first time the collection has traveled outside of Russia since its creation at the turn of the 20th century. A 520-page scholarly catalogue, 'THE MOROZOV COLLECTION : ICONS OF MODERN ART', is co-published by the Fondation Louis Vuitton and Les Éditions Gallimard. Based on Mikhaïl and Ivan Morozov's extensive unpublished archives, which are preserved at the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts and the Tretyakov Gallery, the publication will feature unpublished texts and documents that illustrate the Morozov family's unique history.
