Notes related to Abstract Art

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Ellsworth Kelly's birth, the Fondation Louis Vuitton pays tribute to the artist with the exhibition “Ellsworth Kelly Formes et Couleurs, 1949-2015”; the first exhibition in France to address in such a broad way the work of this essential creator of the second half of the 20th century, both for its chronology and for the techniques it brings together. Organized with the Glenstone Museum (Potomac, Maryland) and in collaboration with the Ellsworth Kelly Studio, it brings together more than a hundred works, covering a wide range of media used by the artist, from painting to sculpture, works on paper, collage and photography presented on the main and first floors of the Foundation.

The Foundation Louis Vuitton presents a major retrospective of Mark Rothko’s work. Curated by Suzanne Pagé and Christopher Rothko, this is the first exhibition dedicated to the artist since the 1999 retrospective at the musée d’Art modern de la Ville de Paris.
