This summer, we invite you to experience OUT OF THE SHADOWS, the first dedicated exhibition of Eugène Carrière in Asia, outside of Japan. The exhibition focuses on the artist’s mature period, presenting close to 40 works from the pinnacle of his career.
Perhaps the greatest artist you have never heard of, French painter and lithographer Eugène Carrière was a true artist’s artist, a master tremendously respected by his contemporaries and influential to many of the eminent names of early modern art. Auguste Rodin was a lifelong friend, Henri Matisse was one of his many notable students, Alberto Giacometti discovered Carrière’s paintings when he arrived in Paris, and Henry Moore collected Carrière’s works in his home, Paul Gauguin and Edward Steichen held him in high esteem, and Pablo Picasso owes much of his blue and pink periods to Carrière’s influence.
