Berthe Weill and the Parisian Avant-Garde with Curators Lynn Gumpert and Sophie Eloy

Organized by The American Library in Paris

Original date: October 15, 2025

Curators Lynn Gumpert and Sophie Eloy discuss the Musée de l’Orangerie’s current exhibition “Berthe Weill. Galeriste d’avant-garde,” which traces the story of one of the first female art dealers in Paris. A pioneering figure of the early 20th century, Weill championed avant-garde artists such as Picasso and Modigliani, helping to shape the course of modern art. This event offered a unique behind-the-scenes look at the exhibition and the curatorial vision that brings Weill’s remarkable influence to life at one of Paris’s most celebrated museums. This event was in partnership with the American Friends Musées d’Orsay et de l’Orangerie.
