Arcadia in Celle: the Maeght Foundation presents the Gori collection
March 31 – June 10, 2012
Maeght Foundation

Itis exceptional for works of art from Gori’s modern and contemporary collection to leave their home in Celle to spend time in the Fondation Maeght. Among the historical works, the collection’s Great Masters of XXth century art are displayed in the « salle de la Mairie » next to those of the Maeght Foundation. These marvellous works include two oils on canvas by Giacomo Balla, a gouache by Umberto Boccioni entitled Rittratto della madre (1908), a futurist work Bar San Marco (1914) by Ottone Rosai and a work from the same period by Ardengo Soffici, a stabile-mobile by Alexander Calder, a painting by Joan Miró Femme, Oiseau, Etoiles and surrealist works from the 1920’s and 30’s by Giorgio De Chirico, René Magritte and Alberto Savinio.
