Paris—June 1 (part 1 of 2)

Paris today (June 1), part 2 of 2: an astonishing show at the Musée du quai Branly about Félix Fénéon who was an anarchist and art critic (first identified the neo-Impressionists as such and supported them intellectually, critically & as himself a collector) and also strongly advocated for the inclusion of non-western art objects into Parisian collections. This show is coming to MoMA in New York in October in two parts—first, the anarchist-impressionist work; second, the efforts on behalf of “distant art.”
