The Fondation will open its doors on 22 September 2021 with The Morozov Collection. Icons of Modern Art.

From 22 September 2021 until 3 April 2022, the exhibition of the Morozov collection will take over the entire galleries of the Fondation Louis Vuitton, and will present the masterpieces from the Collection of the brothers Mikhaïl Abramovitch Morozov (1870-1903) and Ivan Abramovitch Morozov (1871-1921).

The great early 20th century Muscovite patrons and collectors who put together one of the most exceptional collections of French modern art (Matisse, Bonnard, Picasso, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Degas, Monet, Renoir, Denis, Cézanne…) and Russian modern art (Vrubel, Malevich, Repin, Larionov, Serov…).

The exhibition is organized thanks to the remarkable collaboration of the Russian museums – The State Hermitage Museum (Saint Petersburg), the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts  (Moscow) and the State Tretyakov Gallery (Moscow), and will be an exceptional artistic event in Paris and the first time that the Collection is being presented outside of Russia.

Following the exhibition of the Shchukin Collection at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in 2016/2017, the presentation of the Morozov Collection will be another major historical moment dedicated to key early 20th Century Russian collectors.
