POSTPONEMENT OF THE EXHIBITION
"THE MOROZOV COLLECTION.
ICONS OF MODERN ART"
12 MAY - 10 OCTOBER 2021
February 1st, 2021
Faced with the public health context, the Fondation Louis Vuitton must announce the postponement of the exhibition "The Morozov Collection. Icons of Modern Art", originally scheduled from 24 February to 25 July 2021, to 12 May until 10 October 2021.
The Morozov Collection is one of the world’s foremost collections of Modern and Impressionist art. It has never before been presented outside of Russia. Its exhibition at the Fondation Louis Vuitton is an event of exceptional significance, just like the exhibition of the Shchukin Collection in 2016, which attracted nearly 1.3 million visitors.
200 masterpieces of modern French (Manet, Rodin, Monet, Pissarro, Lautrec, Renoir, Sisley, Cézanne, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Bonnard, Denis, Maillol, Matisse, Marquet, Vlaminck, Derain and Picasso) and Russian art (Repin, Vrubel, Korovin, Golovin, Serov, Larionov, Goncharova, Malevich, Mashkov, Konchalovsky, Utkin, Saryan or Konenkov), belonging to the brothers Mikhail and Ivan Morozov, will be brought together in Paris.
The exhibition is organised by the Fondation Louis Vuitton in partnership with the State Hermitage Museum (Saint Petersburg), the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts (Moscow), and the Tretyakov National Gallery (Moscow).
The current context, which prevents the organisation of an international exhibition, has forced the Fondation Louis Vuitton to postpone this opening by two and a half months.
