 News: The Wessel Bagge Collection at Louisiana Museum
From the Niels Wessel Bagge Art Foundation Louisiana has taken over a unique collection consisting primarily of Pre-Columbian cultural artefacts from North, South and Central America — that is, Amerindian arts and crafts from the time before the European colonization that began around 1500, as well as objects from Africa, New Guinea and ancient Europe.
Art from foreign cultures played an important role for the modern art of the 20th century, and these ethnographica, both as individual artefacts and through their links with modern works, have crucially expanded our artistic universe and our visual responsiveness in general.
A long succession of exhibitions at the museum over the years has demonstrated this, and Louisiana sees this donation as an important enrichment of the museum.

Even the 52-story Museum Tower apartment building from the 1984 expansion is integrated into the complex with an exposed wall in the garden.
Soaring vertical planes, such as a wood and metal staircase linking the fourth- and fifth-floor galleries in one wall of the atrium, and the slender, load-bearing colonnades, balance the horizontal lines of the upper floors and the 12,400-square-foot ground-floor lobby, which cuts across a city block between 53rd and 54th streets.

 TheFlower as Image: 150 Works by the World’s Greatest Artists - Louisiana Museum of Modern Art - Absolutearts.com
This autumn’s major exhibition at Louisiana, The Flower as Image, with about 150 works by some of the world’s greatest artists, is a sheer pleasure cruise through a familiar subject — the flower — which is revealed along the way as a surprisingly diverse and rich motif.
It is thus the ambition of the exhibition to show how, throughout the epoch of modern art, the artists use, treat, challenge, express and experiment with the flower and its potential in the artistic process.
Or, to put it differently, with the flower motif as the focus of attention, we tell the grand story of the way modern art has developed as a medium, as a language and as a form of experience.

 Matisse: A Second Life - Louisiana Museum of Modern Art - Absolutearts.com
With about 150 works from many museums and private collections all over the world, it covers all aspects of Matisse’s oeuvre: paintings, illustrated books, drawings, tapestries, sketches for the chapel at Vence and a selection of the small and very large coloured paper cut-outs which marked a striking new departure in Matisse’s work.
Some of the first projects he plunged into after his convalescence were illustrations of books like the Florilège des Amours de Ronsard followed by the Poèmes de Charles d’Orléans, which are included in the exhibition with their preliminary studies, and in the latter case a uniquely beautiful maquette which has never been exhibited before.
The letter was originally accompanied by 21 drawings of trees, exhibited here for the first time — along with a couple of early drawings from 1939 and studies in a very large format of trees from 1951-52, done on the basis of the 21 small drawings.
