Historical masterworks

Once in the collection of actress Sophia Loren and her husband, Carlo Ponti, the booth spotlights Giorgio Morandi’s ‘Natura morta (Still Life)’ (1935), an accomplished example of the still lifes for which he is best known. Other key works come from the French master Francis Picabia and French-American icon Louise Bourgeois, whose bronze sculpture The Pinch of the Teaser (1992) will feature on the booth. Also spotlighted is the striking acrylic on canvas Blue Chips: A Dedication To Jackson Pollock (2006) by Jack Whitten and the early-career work on paper _Éléments de tension (Elements of Tension) _(1917) by Sophie Taeuber-Arp, who will be the subject of an exhibition at Hauser & Wirth Paris in January 2026.
