The very first exhibition in Italy dedicated to Chaïm Soutine (Belarus 1893 - Paris 1943), one of the most emotional and intense artists of the 20th century. Poor, Jewish in an adverse environment, psychologically disturbed: Soutine's story is touching as his works, steeped in pain and so powerful that they influenced so many artists including Bacon. His portraits are shocking, his still lifes are a universe of blood and heartbreak.
Palazzo Reale and Arthemisia present the first retrospective of this relatively recently discovered artist who is winning over audiences worldwide.

An exhibition by the Municipality of Milan - Culture Area | Palazzo Reale | Arthemisia. 

Curated by Simonetta Fraquelli with Francesca Villanti.
