McMaster’s paintings at MMFA

December 2, 2014

Dufy painting

We are very proud that 3 paintings from McMaster’s collection – by Paul Klee, Raoul Dufy and Émile-Othon Friesz – were requested and loaned for this major exhibition Expressionism in Germany and France: From Van Gogh to Kandinsky, presented at Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 2014 and now at Montreal Museum of Fine Arts until January 25, 2015.

The exhibit sheds new light on the extraordinary response of artists in Germany and France to important advances in modern art in the early 20th century.

Here is a lecture about the exhibition by Timothy O. Benson, exhibition curator and curator of the Robert Gore Rifkind Center for German Expressionist Studies at the LACMA.
Note: McMaster’s paintings are discussed at 31:10 (Friesz) and 59:12 (Klee)!
