In spring 2019, the Musée Maillol welcomes masterpieces from the Emil Bührle Collection, one of the most prestigious private collections in the world. Presented for the first time in France, this collection, assembled between 1936 and 1956 in Zurich, offers a panoramic view of French art from the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Born in Germany, Emil Georg Bührle (1890-1956) moved to Switzerland in 1924 and collected over 600 works of art, primarily between 1951 and 1956. For the first time in Paris a selection of these masterpieces are being presented together in a single exhibition.
Featuring over sixty treasures from the Emil Bührle Collection, the exhibition explores several key movements in modern art: the great names of Impressionism (Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Degas, Renoir, Sisley), Post-Impressionism (Cézanne, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec), the early twentieth century with the Nabis (Bonnard, Vuillard), the Fauves and Cubists (Braque, Derain, Vlaminck), the École de Paris (Modigliani), concluding with Picasso.
As the exhibition prepares for a permanent move to Kunsthaus in Zurich, the Emil Bührle Collection is gaining national and international exposure. After the Fondation de l’Hermitage in Lausanne in 2017 and three major museums in Japan in 2018, the Musée Maillol will have the privilege of displaying masterpieces such as Degas’s La petite danseuse de quatorze ans (c. 1880), Monet’s Les coquelicots près de Vétheuil (c. 1879), Cézanne’s Le garçon au gilet rouge (c. 1888/90), and Van Gogh’s Le semeur au soleil couchant (1888).
The discourse sparked between artworks in the Bührle collection underscore the temporal intersections in the pieces that span diverse ears of art while illustrating the personal contribution each painter makes to the history of art. Emil Bührle, for whom past creations influenced those of the present, liked to say that “in the end Daumier led me to Rembrandt and Manet to Frans Hals”.
The Emil Bührle collection offers a major historical testimony by presenting the development of a collection belonging to a Swiss industrialist during the Second World War and the following decade. To pay homage to the provenece of the collection, one room in the exhibition will be devoted to archival documents. The documents will present the research of the E. Bührle Collection has carried out over 15 years, and invites the viewer to follow the long and arduous journey the artworks in the collection took during World War II.
