""This first pleasant experience with a modern painting started me on a road of adventure that has been both exhilarating and satisfying," Pearlman once said of another painting by Soutine, called Village Square. "I haven't spent a boring evening since that first purchase.""
"At the heart of the show, for instance, is Chaïm Soutine's View of Céret, the painting that first inspired Pearlman's enduring interest in modernism. Produced between 1921 and 1922, the composition offers an abstract, highly expressionist rendition of the titular Céret, a commune in southern France, and is complete with an earthy color palette."
Henry Pearlman's extensive art collection, developed over three decades, includes masterpieces from Impressionist and post-Impressionist artists. The exhibition, Cézanne to Modigliani, will open on October 2, 2026, at the Brooklyn Museum, featuring over 50 modern European artworks. The collection highlights various art forms, including paintings, sculptures, and drawings, with a focus on Chaïm Soutine's View of Céret. The exhibition will also explore the Pearlmans' personal history through photographs and documents, emphasizing their connection to Cézanne's work.
