Autumn exhibitions 2022

The Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris is presenting three exhibitions in autumn 2022.

Oskar Kokoschka: Enfant terrible in Vienna
September 23, 2022–February 12, 2023

The Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris is presenting the first Paris retrospective devoted to Austrian artist Oskar Kokoschka (1886–1980). Retracing Kokoschka's seven decades of image-making, the exhibition highlights the artist's originality as we accompany him through Europe's 20th century.

Painter, writer, playwright and poet, Kokoschka stands for his committed role in the artistic and intellectual upheavals of early 20th-century Vienna. Combining a drive to convey the intensity of the moods of his time with a very real talent for provocation, from 1908 onwards he became the enfant terrible for critical circles in Vienna. Meanwhile, with the support of Gustav Klimt and Adolf Loos, he inspired a new generation of artists, among them Egon Schiele. As a portraitist of Viennese society, he brought unrivalled skill to laying bare his models' innermost being.

Oskar Kokoschka: Enfant terrible in Vienna is a unique selection of 150 of the artist's most significant works, brought together with the backing of major European and American collections.

Curators: Dieter Buchhart, Anna Karina Hofbauer and Fanny Schulmann, assisted by Anne Bergeaud and Cédric Huss
