With nearly 200 works - sculptures, engravings, drawings and paintings - the exhibition chronologically retraces Germaine Richier's artistic trajectory and sheds light on the major themes that nourish her sculptural practice (the human, the animal, myths, etc.). Trained in the tradition of Auguste Rodin and Antoine Bourdelle, Germaine Richier asserted herself as profoundly original and radical in little more than 25 years, from the 1930s to her early death in 1959: a link between Rodin and the first César in the history of modern sculpture.

This is the first monographic presentation devoted to the Indian artist Sayed Haider Raza (1922-2016), a member of the Progressive Artists Group founded in Mumbai in 1947, who lived in France from 1950 to 2010. Through a careful selection of paintings from the 1950s to the 1990s, this exhibition focuses on his formative years in India and within the Progressive Artists Group. It also highlights the formal and conceptual developments of a modern oeuvre that is exemplary of the transcultural dynamics and issues at stake in 20th-century art.
