West Bund Museum joins hands with Centre Pompidou for show
Print Edition
THE West Bund Museum x Centre Pompidou project “Reinventing Landscape: Highlights of the Centre Pompidou Collection Vol. IV” opened at the West Bund Museum recently, lifting the curtain on another five-year collaboration between the two art institutions of Shanghai and Paris, respectively.
This semi-permanent exhibition turns the spotlight on Western landscape art and its profound transformation through the 20th and 21st centuries. Offering a fresh modernist interpretation, it not only traces the artistic evolution of the “landscape” motif since 1906, but also examines its enduring connection to human society. Highlights include iconic works from Cubism (Georges Braque), Fauvism (André Derain), Surrealism (André Masson) and Abstract Art (Zao Wou-Ki).
Unfolding across seven chapters and featuring nearly 70 works from the Centre Pompidou collection, the show provides a diverse viewing experience through painting, photography, cinema, design and new media spanning two exhibition halls.
It is curated by Christian Briend, head of the Modern Collections Department at Musée National d’Art Moderne, who is also a key curator of the Centre Pompidou.
“Reinventing Landscape” is the fourth semi-permanent exhibition of the West Bund Museum x Centre Pompidou project. The two art organizations have previously co-presented “The Shape of Time” (2019-2021), “The Voice of Things” (2021-2023) and “Mirrors of the Portrait” (2023-2025).
