In 1996, his collection went on display in his hometown of Berlin in a building facing the Charlottenburg Palace. In 2000, the major works in his collection were purchased by the German government, and in 2004, the museum was renamed the Museum Berggruen. Today the museum is one of the Berlin State Museums and is world-renowned for its many outstanding exhibitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Until his final years Berggruen continued to acquire and sell or trade works as he strove to build on the collection\u2019s particular characteristics. In the end he focused the collection\u2019s strengths on works by his four favorite artists, namely, Picasso, Paul Klee, Henri Matisse, and Alberto Giacometti. The resulting collection featuring carefully selected works by these four artists, along with those of Paul C\u00e9zanne, the patriarch of Modern Art, who they had all studied under, fully conveys the richly creative and vitality-filled arts of these 20th century Masters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This exhibition, made possible by current renovations at the Museum Berggruen, presents 97 carefully selected works from this highly individualistic collection, joined by 11 works owned by or on deposit at Japan\u2019s National Museum of Art institutions, for a total of 108 works on display. This is the first comprehensive introduction of the Berggruen collection outside its own facilities, and the debut showing in Japan of 76 of the 97 Berggruen collection works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \ud83d\udcc5 2022.10.8 ~ 2023.1.22 \ud83d\udccd The National Museum of Western Art, 7-7 Ueno-koen, Taito-ku, Tokyo 110-0007, Japan \ud83d\udcdd Regular close on Mondays This exhibition presents a selection of 20th-century art, including works across Picasso\u2019s entire oeuvre, from the Museum Berggruen\u2019s unparalleled collection.
