MUDEC in Milan presents Matisse: The World in a room <\/em>In Milan, MUDEC presents an ambitious and scholarly exhibition project exploring the relationship between Henri Matisse (Le Cateau \u2013 Cambr\u00e9sis, 1869 \u2013 Nice, 1954) and the cultures he encountered during his studies and travels beyond Europe. Matisse. Il mondo in una stanza (The world in a room) addresses, for the first time systematically, a central and long \u2013 overlooked question: how African, Islamic, Russian, Pacific, and Chinese art shaped Matisse\u2019s artistic language from within, redefining the very boundaries of Western modernism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Produced by 24 ORE Cultura \u2013 Gruppo Il Sole 24 ORE and promoted by the Municipality of Milan \u2013 Culture Department, the exhibition Matisse. Il mondo in una stanza is realised in partnership with the Mus\u00e9e Matisse in Nice, with Unipol as Main Sponsor and the support of Turisanda1924 – Alpitour World, and it is curated by Ellen McBreen and Chiara Gatti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition is structured into 6 sections and brings together around 100 works, including paintings, works on paper, and sculptures from prestigious international institutions: the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection in New York, the MoMA, the Mus\u00e9e de l’Orangerie, the Mus\u00e9e Picasso, the Mus\u00e9e d’Orsay, the Mus\u00e9e du Quai Branly, the Bargello in Florence, the MUDEC, and others. These works are accompanied by a rare and rich collection of objects and fabrics \u2013 including a personal collection especially dear to Matisse \u2013 on loan from Mus\u00e9e Matisse in Nice, the Museum of Civilizations in Rome, and other institutions, recollecting the fabric of Matisse\u2019s dialogues with the art and design of other geographies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A particular focus is dedicated to decorative projects and artist’s books: the monumental diptych Oc\u00e9anie, the famous plates of Jazz, the Po\u00e9sies by St\u00e9phane Mallarm\u00e9 and Pasipha\u00e9: Chant de Minos (Les Cr\u00e9tois) by Henry de Montherlant. The exhibition also features drawings and decorative elements from Matisse’s final masterpiece, the Chapel of the Rosary in Vence on the French Riviera, representing the ultimate synthesis of years of artistic research. The exhibition is enriched by vintage photographs, including a sequence of previously unpublished shots taken by Matisse himself in Morocco. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matisse: The World in a room <\/em> Matisse. Il mondo in una stanza (Matisse. The World in a Room) serves as a benchmark in the critical re-evaluation of the concepts of otherness, primitivism, and orientalism. Its strength lies in its philological precision: unlike exhibitions that have evoked the “Orient” in a generic way, the show highlights hybridization\u2014Islamic arabesques and Romanian clothing geometries, Gelede Yoruba masks, and medieval Russian icons\u2014bringing to light the ambiguity and complexity of a creative imagination that drew from distant worlds to build one of the most original visual languages of the 20th century. This reflection invites us today to re-read Matisse’s appropriations through a postcolonial perspective. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n
