The Louvre’s Department of Near Eastern Antiquities is hosting ten major works from New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, whose Department of Ancient Near Eastern Art is currently closed for renovation. The Louvre and The Met have created a unique dialogue between these two collections, which is displayed in the Louvre’s permanent galleries. These ‘special guest’ artworks from The Met, dating from between the late 4th millennium BC and the 5th century AD, show some remarkable connections with the Louvre’s collection. In some cases, a pair of objects has been reunited for the first time, while in others, pieces complement each other by virtue of specific historical features of their respective collections. Representing Central Asia, Syria, Iran and Mesopotamia, this dialogue between collections is (re)introducing visitors to these extraordinary, age-old works of art and the stories they tell.

The Musée national Picasso-Paris collection is the fruit of an extraordinary history, made possible by the dation procedure - today it is the largest public collection of works by Picasso, the "Picassos of Picasso". Coming from the artist's studios, this collection gives us a better grasp of the aesthetic explorations of a Picasso who was by turns disconcerting, plural, contradictory, reflexive, gestural and conceptual, an aesthete and a committed activist, a tinkerer and a poet. Is he symbolist, cubist, classical, surrealist or simply figurative and political?

At the invitation of the Musée national Picasso-Paris, Argentine artist Guillermo Kuitca (b. 1961) has created a site-specific work in the chapel of the Hôtel Salé. Since his intervention at the Venice Biennale in 2007, Kuitca has developed a new language, echoing the architecture, which the artist calls ‘cubistoid painting’, in which a set of intersecting lines, like so many folds in the plane, is deployed directly on the walls, forming a new pictorial space.

This exhibition invites you to discover his artistic journey, from the revelation of Henri Matisse's Luxe, Calme et Volupté, where the need to bring about the "miracle of the imagination" fully appeared to him, to the development of his touch in relation to that of Paul Cézanne and finally the blossoming of his own pictorial language in his studio in Vence. His unique style unfolds throughout the exhibition in the landscapes of Normandy and Provence, the motif of the studio, the views of ports and bathers or even the musicality of parties and receptions. And if the Norman is above all a painter, he also sought very early on to transpose the recurring motifs of his imagination into the illustration of books, textile creation or even ceramics. This project is an opportunity to rediscover the richness of the Dufy collection at the Museum of Fine Arts, which we owe mainly to the generosity of the artist's wife, Eugénie Brisson from Nice.
