Calder, Kelly, Lichtenstein, Marden, Warhol... The best of post-war American art, with each artist a dazzling ensemble. Visitors to the Grand Palais and the Musée Granet are given a preview of the coming together of two exceptional collections: that of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) and the one that Doris and Donald Fisher passionately built in this flagship city on the West Coast. This partnership, formed with the aim of sharing these works with the public, will bring them together permanently, thanks to a spectacular expansion of the museum. Carl André, Chuck Close, Richard Diebenkorn, Dan Flavin, Philip Guston, Donald Judd, Sol LeWitt, Agnes Martin, Cy Twombly... There are fourteen in total. All markers of a moment in 20th-century aesthetics. The excellence of the Fisher collection, from the innovations of abstraction to the questions of minimalism, with a colorful detour through pop art, makes San Francisco an essential destination for lovers of modern and contemporary art, the living museum of a generation, stopping off in France for a few months.
