In dialog with Sophie Grossmann's vintage textile collection, visitors can discover a new aspect of Matisse's work.
Sophie Grossmann (*1991) is an art historian specializing in the history of the textile arts and a fashion collector. She founded Zigi Rauschenberg as a private fashion archive in Zurich, which comprises antique clothing and vintage fashion from the late 19th to the mid-20th century, including particularly elaborately crafted evening wear and rare couture pieces.

Henri Matisse also collected textiles and clothing, which he acquired on his travels and in antique stores. Matisse repeatedly drew on his collection for his works and gave the textiles a new form of expression. In dialog with Sophie Grossmann's vintage textile collection, visitors can discover this aspect of the artist's work through a new approach.

Meeting point: Foyer in the museum. The event will be held in German and English and also allows spontaneous participation on site.
