PICASSO-MATISSE-KLEE: MASTERPIECES FROM THE MUSEUM BERGGRUEN
The Museum Berggruen in Berlin houses one of the world’s most significant collections of modern art, assembled by renowned art dealer and collector Heinz Berggruen (1914–2007). In the museum’s first presentation of its collection in Latin America, paintings, drawings and sculptures by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Paul Klee are accompanied by works from fellow modern masters, including Georges Braque, Paul Cézanne, Alberto Giacometti and Henri Laurens. Organized around themes of still life, portraiture, the human figure, and landscape, the exhibition traces the development of abstract art movements in Europe. Works by Diego Rivera, on loan from Mexican collections, highlight the artist’s involvement in the emergence of Cubism in Paris and establish a connection between European modernism and Mexican art history.

Exhibition organized by the Jumex Museum in collaboration with the Berggruen Museum.

Curators: Klaus Biesenbach, director of the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin; Natalie Zimmer, curator at the Museum Berggruen; and Kit Hammonds, chief curator at Museo Jumex.
