ANGE LECCIA | MONET : QUESTIONING NATURE
Hors les murs 7 February 2026 - 24 May 2026Address : Artizon Museum Ishibashi Fondation 1-7-2 Kyobashi, Chuo-ku Tokyo, Japan
We are pleased to announce the participation of Ange Leccia at Artizon museum (Tokyo, Japon)’s exhibition Monet : Questioning Nature from February 6 to May 24, 2026.
The Impressionist painter Claude Monet (1840-1926) was fascinated by the beauty of natural light. While exploring ways to express that beauty, he created innovative landscape paintings that intertwine the worldview and lyricism of a new era. In the light of our current questioning of nature and ecology, the exhibition will show how Monet himself was confronted with the profound upheavals in the landscape, and how he was affected by them
This exhibition closely traces the development of Monet’s career through places, including Le Havre, Argenteuil, Vetheuil, and Giverny, and periods significant for describing his work. It will also elucidate his creative context and inspirations by examining paintings, photographs, ukiyo-e prints and Art Nouveau crafts from the same era. It will also include an immersive video, a tribute to Monet by contemporary artist Ange Leccia. This exhibition will display 90 works from the Musée d’Orsay, including 41 of the paintings by Monet that are the museum’s pride and joy, plus works from the Artizon Museum, other museums in Japan, and private collections. Through these approximately 140 works we explore Monet’s fascination as a landscape painter. The Impressionist master died in 1926. A worldwide event, Monet: Questioning Nature will mark the start of a season of international celebrations of Monet.
