Matisse 1941-1954

CONTEMPORARY
Artists' Faces. From Gustave Courbet to Annette Messager

SCIENCE

PAINTING

EXHIBITIONS
Alexandre Lenoir: By the Force of Things
Musée de l'Orangerie. Alexandre Lenoir paints dreamlike landscapes with phantom figures, working from photographs he treats as memories. His approach seeks alchemic transformation rather than faithful representation, allowing nature an element of chance.
EXHIBITIONS

Musée Jacquemart-André and the Hispanic Society of America present forty works of Spanish baroque art, including masterworks by Velázquez, Greco and Zurbarán never before shown together in France.
