Modigliani’s Paris: portraits of an unrepeatable bohemia

El París de Modigliani y sus contemporáneos.

September 7, 2020 – December 8, 2020

The Paris of the early twentieth century was a magnet for artists from around the world, and Amedeo Modigliani was one of its most endearing figures. This show places his famous portraits—elongated necks, melancholy gazes—beside those of his contemporaries, including the Guatemalan Carlos Mérida, a pioneer of the Latin American avant-garde. It is a choral portrait of that Montparnasse bohemia where modern art was invented almost daily. An elegant, human show. With ArtGuide you put faces to the names of a legendary era.
