From Crisis to Color: Derrière le Miroir/Behind the Mirror

Mystic Museum of Art

This summer, MMoA continues its exploration of the theme of "Art in Common" by celebrating the visionary innovation of Galerie Maeght in Paris, putting original lithographs by Calder, Miró, Chagall, Matisse, Giacometti, and others into the hands of ordinary people. The Maeght Gallery's success in reviving and expanding the role of art in everyday life after the devastation of World War II placed it among the most influential international galleries of the modern era.
