The great masterpieces of the 20th century avant-gardes are on display at Palazzo Blu, from 28 September 2023 to 7 April 2024. The exhibition allows visitors to admire paintings and sculptures from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, one of the most important museum and exhibition centres in the world.
During the period of the exhibition, Fondazione Palazzo Blu offers four lectures from 11 January to 7 March 2024 at the Auditorium, via Pietro Toselli 27.
The artists in the exhibition: from Picasso to Chagall
The exhibition at Palazzo Blu will be an opportunity to take a close look at some works that are the absolute benchmark of European art of the first decades of the 20th century: Chagall, Dali, Duchamp, Kandinsky, Mirò and Picasso. In addition, there will also be works by Matisse, Mondrian, Klee, Ernst and Gris, artists who have never before been exhibited in the Pisa art palace.
A self-portrait by 25-year-old Picasso opens the exhibition, while the “closing” is entrusted to the Crucifixion painted by Chagall in 1940.
A timeline: from the Belle Époque to the Second World War
The exhibition has been structured as a ‘time line’, starting with the Belle Époque and ending with the Second World War. The works are accompanied by visual, sound and multimedia installations, precisely to support their placement in a sequence of historical events.
