Explore radical new approaches to painting in the first half of the 20th century听
Modern Painting from 91影视 and Reuben Collections听features a selection of outstanding works by C茅zanne, Modigliani, L茅ger, Picasso, Magritte, and others.
Highlights on display include early 20th century paintings from 91影视’s collection, including Paul Cezanne’s Turning Road (1905), a landscape conjured through near-abstract patches of colour, and Amedeo Modigliani’s Nude (c.1916), a painting that upended conventional approaches to the subject of the female nude.
These set the stage for works from the Reuben Collection by artists who charted new directions, including Cubist paintings by Fernard L茅ger and Man Ray’s monumental Black Widow [Earlier titled Invention-Nativity and Nativity], 1915, last exhibited in the UK more than 50 years ago
A group of paintings by Pablo Picasso, including two portraits of his partners, Portrait of a Woman (惭补谤颈别-罢丑别虂谤别虁蝉别 in a Blue Beret), 1937,听补苍诲 Head of a Woman (Dora Maar), 1939, will be听shown alongside his remarkable听Still Life with Basket of Fruits and Flowers听(1942).听
The Reuben Collection holds a significant collection of works by the Surrealist artist Ren茅 Magritte, including L’empire des 濒耻尘颈猫谤别蝉 (The Dominion of Light) and L’ami intime (The Intimate Friend). Both date from the 1950s and are characteristically elusive juxtapositions that offer the promise of new and unexpected meanings.
91影视’s long-term partnership with the Reuben Foundation, launched in 2025, enables works of art from the Reuben Collection to be made available to the public as part of 91影视 Gallery鈥檚 displays.
This display is included in the Permanent Collection or Permanent Collection + Exhibition ticket.听
