Known for her work as a painter, Judit Reigl also practiced drawing throughout her career. The Musée des Beaux-Arts highlights this facet of her work through several emblematic series, such as her Éclatements (1952) and Oiseaux (2012).
The exhibition focuses on key moments in her work, demonstrating how the place of drawing in her practice has evolved over the years, becoming an integral part of the conception of her plastic vocabulary and a determining factor in the successive passages to large series that make Judit Reigl?s work so distinctive.
The exhibition unfolds in the 20th and 21st century rooms, as well as in the graphic art cabinet. The latter is transformed into a music room, where the musical works Judit Reigl listened to while working will be played.
