Nicolas de Staël

The Fondation de l’Hermitage is partnering with the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris / Paris Musées to stage a major retrospective of Nicolas de Staël (1914-1955), a key figure in post-war art. The exhibition will feature a selection of around a hundred paintings, drawings and sketchbooks from many public and private collections in Switzerland and the wider world. The iconic Parc des Princes (1952) will be shown alongside a large group of works that are seldom, if ever, put on public display, offering a new perspective on Staël’s work that highlights certain little-known aspects of his career.
