A major figure in international art, Ellsworth Kelly redefined abstraction in art through a pictorial language of pure forms and vibrant colours inspired by the world around him.
Exhibition of the Collection
From 27 October 2014 to 25 November 2014
Curated to complement Frank Gehry’s architecture, the first hang displays a selection of emblematic works from the four themes of the collection (Contemplative, Pop, Expressionist, Music/Sound) by Christian Boltanski, Pierre Huyghe, Bertrand Lavier, Gerhard Richter and Thomas Schütte. As part of his commission for the auditorium, one room is dedicated to the works of Ellsworth Kelly.
Exhibition of the Collection
From 17 December 2014 to 18 May 2015
The second phase in the inaugural hang featured a larger number of works, based on the Expressionist and the Contemplative themes.
