Amedeo Modigliani. A Painter and His Dealer

This exhibition at the Musée de l'Orangerie in Paris examines the crucial partnership between the Italian modernist painter Amedeo Modigliani and his influential dealer Paul Guillaume. Through paintings, sculptures, drawings, and archival documents, the show traces how their professional and personal relationship shaped Modigliani's artistic development and market presence in early 20th-century Paris. The exhibition reveals the dealer's role in promoting the artist's distinctive style—characterized by elongated forms and expressive portraiture—and explores the commercial and cultural dynamics that defined their collaboration during a transformative period in modern art.
