Exhibition
Admire Jean Paul Riopelle’s monumental fresco Tribute to Rosa Luxemburg as one continuous movement and in all its splendour!
This narrative sequence of 30 paintings forming a triptych more than 40 metres long dazzles in the Pierre Lassonde Pavilion. On display here in a glass case with subtle lighting, Jean Paul Riopelle’s largest work was acquired by the Musée in 1996.
Riopelle began work on this immense composition in his studio on Île aux Oies in November 1992, after having learned of the death in Paris of his former companion, the American painter Joan Mitchell (1926-1992).
