Paula Modersohn-Becker, An Intensely Artistic Eye
Exhibition curator: Julia Garimorth
The Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris is presenting France’s first monographic exhibition of the work of Paula Modersohn-Becker (1876–1907). Little known to the French public, she is nonetheless a major modern art figure.
Despite a brief career—a mere ten years—this artist has left us an extremely rich legacy, revealed in this exhibition by some one hundred paintings and drawings. In addition, excerpts from letters and diaries provide an understanding of the intimate link between her art and her personal life.

Pandora’s Box, Jan Dibbets on Another photography
Exhibition curators: Jan Dibbets, François Michaud
The Musée d’Art Moderne has called on Jan Dibbets—whose own contribution to Conceptual art was decisive—for a reinterpretation of the history of photography from its invention up to the present day. Rejecting a conventional approach in what is his first venture into curating, Dibbets sets out to pursue the line he has been following since the 1960s, and which marked his exhibitions at the Musée d’Art Moderne in 1980, 1994 and 2010.

Albert Marquet, Painter of Time Pending
Exhibition curator: Sophie Krebs
The Musée d’Art Moderne is commemorating Albert Marquet (1875–1947) with a major monographic exhibition of over one hundred paintings and drawings, some of them being shown in France for the first time.
The chronological and thematic layout of the exhibition allows viewers to rediscover an artist who defies pigeonholing, and who evolved with the movements of his time—from Post-Impressionism to Fauvism—without ever losing his stylistic independence.
