<p>The exhibition examines how the revolutionary ideas of modern art spread and drove developments in European and Australian Modernism. It will be the first time works of art from an important hub of modern art in Germany – the Museum Berggruen collection in Berlin – will be seen in Australia.</p>
<p>The exhibition will highlight how Australian artists such as Dorrit Black, Grace Crowley, Anne Dangar and Russell Drysdale drew inspiration from European artists and how the Australian John Russell influenced the master Matisse.</p>
<p>The exhibition starts with Paul Cézanne, whose radical experiments inspired artists such as Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Henri Matisse, Paul Klee and Alberto Giacometti.</p>
<p><em>Cézanne to Giacometti: Highlights from Museum Berggruen/Neue Nationalgalerie , National Gallery of Australia, May 31-September 21.</em></p>
