The couturier fell in love with this legendary mansion at first sight. Now transformed and sublimated, this ‘refuge of the marvellous’, the beating heart of the House of Dior since its foundation, has been reinvented and now houses La Galerie Dior, a testament to the bold vision of Christian Dior and his six successors: Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, John Galliano, Raf Simons and Maria Grazia Chiuri.

With Olivier Flaviano, Director of Galerie Dior

The exhibition explores the crossroads between surrealism, ethnology and archaeology during the interwar period in France, focusing on the question of what to do with objects. The experimental approach of the artists and literary revisers of the period gave rise to a new perception of objects and places. They challenged the very concept of the museum by asking: What is art? What makes an object a work of art?

Mission Recherche

The first exhibition in France devoted to so-called “degenerate” art, this show at the Musée national Picasso explores and puts into perspective the Nazi regime's methodical attack on modern art and the place of Pablo Picasso, the archetypal “degenerate” artist, in this narrative. “L'art dégénéré: le procès de l'art moderne sous le nazisme" studies in particular a propaganda exhibition that was held in Munich in 1937, and will feature over 700 works by a hundred artists representing the different currents of modern art, from Otto Dix to Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, from Vassily Kandinsky to Emil Nolde, from Paul Klee to Max Beckmann, in a staging designed to provoke the visitors' disgust.

With the curator of the exhibition Johan Popelard, chef du département de la conservation et des collections du Musée national Picasso
