20th-Century Art and the Maeght Collection
The story of the Maeght family, which has built one of the most important collections of contemporary art for three generations, goes beyond mere collecting; it is an extraordinary story that has become synonymous with 20th-century art and even influenced its formation.
The Maeghts' 1946 exhibition "Black Is a Color," considered one of the most important exhibitions of contemporary art in Paris, will be held again fifty-two years later at the Milli Reasürans Art Gallery in Istanbul. Fifty-two years later, artists such as Bazine, Tapies, Ubac, Miro, Giacometti, Braque, Calder, Matisse, Chagall, Kuroda, and Chillida will be presented to Istanbul art lovers with their drawings, paintings, sculptures, and engravings.
