Musée Bourdelle, Paris

Following presentations in London, Lausanne, Oslo, Warsaw, and more recently in Tilburg and ’s-Hertogenbosch, the Musée Bourdelle in Paris will host a major exhibition devoted to Magdalena Abakanowicz. Through the loan of eight significant works—reliefs and spatial forms—Fondation Toms Pauli contributes to the curatorial ambition of emphasising the sculptural dimension of the Polish artist’s oeuvre. The Paris exhibition is staged in the home-workshop of Antoine Bourdelle, sculptor and drawing teacher at the Gobelins manufactory, whose pupil Maria Łaszkiewicz enabled Abakanowicz to realise her first large-format tapestries for the Lausanne International Tapestry Biennials.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a publication in French.
