I saw grand art news on TV yesterday.
There is an art exhibition, Arcadie‧Dans les Collections du Centre Pompidou, in Taipei Fine Arts Museum. I am going to enjoy this month.
Arcadie. Dans les Collections du Centre Pompidou: Gallery Talk
Following the Museum's 2006 cooperative exhibition New Media Collection 1965-2005 with the Pompidou Center, the two institutions are once again working hand in hand on their first thematic exhibition, Arcadie. Dans les Collections du Centre Pompidou, which will bring important contemporary artworks to Taiwan to be experienced firsthand. As its exhibition theme, Arcadie has taken the idyllic, pastoral life as described by ancient Roman poets.
Containing a large number of the Pompidou's heavy-weight collection of twentieth century modern art, the exhibits will present eighty-three works of the great masters of drawing, painting, video and sculpture. These will include works by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Georges Braque, Pierre Bonnard, Marc Chagall, Jean Dubuffet, Paul Klee and Luis Bunuel. Among those to be exhibited are many rarely lent important works of the Pompidou Center collection. The exhibition was inspired by the poetry of ancient Rome, which is echoed in the painting The Arcadian Shepherds by the French classicist, Nicolas Poussin, and presents the themes of death and the pleasures of life. Several exhibition themes are derived from the dialectical observations this painting provides in its inherently rich, harmonious and stimulating Bacchanalia, as well as the unpredictable variations of this world and its illusory ostentatiousness. Using a strictly narrative theme to make clear its points, this exhibition can be said to represent the essence of modern art.

龐畢度中心收藏展 4/18北美館首度亮相
更新日期:2009/04/14 01:00江佩君
4月18日起台灣民眾將能一睹法國龐畢度中心收藏品的風采，台北市立美術館將展出83件龐畢度中心收藏的作品，其中野獸派大師馬諦斯等四位畫家的原作，也將首次在台公開亮相。
「世外桃源─龐畢度中心收藏展」今(13)日在北美館舉行開箱記者會，龐畢度中心策展人迪迪耶•歐登傑(DidierOttinger)特別介紹第一次在台灣公開亮相的四件原作，包括野獸派大師馬諦斯(HenriMatisse)的「大幅紅色室內景」，這是龐畢度中心第一幅收藏的馬諦斯作品，而這件作品也是馬諦斯室內內景物畫的最後一幅，畫風統籌了馬諦斯所有的繪畫風格。
另外三件原作還包括，米羅(JoanMiro)巨幅作品「藍色二號」、雷捷(FernandLéger)「休閒—向路易‧達維致意」以及馬克斯‧恩斯特(MaxErnst)的「法蘭西花園」。
這次「世外桃源─龐畢度中心收藏展」將展出39位當代藝術大師共計83件作品，總保額就已高達新台幣150億。作品分成四批，分別從首爾及巴黎空運抵台。
來自首爾的三批70件作品率先抵達，最後一批自巴黎運來的13件作品，也在9日上午經長榮航空運抵桃園機場，由龐畢度中心與北美館人員接運至北美館。運輸全程使用恆溫恆濕的空調氣墊車，以確保作品保持最佳狀態。
展出作品之一，雷捷的「休閒—向路易‧達維致意」，主題是在頌揚大眾的休閒生活，以圓柱、錐體所建構出的形象，讓畫中人物看起來有如機器人般的僵硬呆板，這種表現方式也和雷捷的共產黨員身份有關。
而米羅的作品「藍色二號」畫幅非常巨大，有270X355公分，米羅運用他覺得最自然的顏色，也稱為是夢境的顏色「藍色」來創作，他希望觀賞者可以沉浸在畫中，畫作就有如一片大海與人類的溝通，充滿定、靜的精神。
「世外桃源－龐畢度中心收藏展」展期將從4月18日起到7月12日，即日起開放預售票，在寬宏售票網訂購可享9折優惠，或可至全台的7-11門市i-bon購票。
