国立新美術館のモディリアーニ展を駆け足で見た。今回は「カリアティッド」が多く並べられ、原始アフリカ芸術がモディリアーニの様式にコペルニクス的転回をもたらした流れが垣間見えたことがひとつ、それから肖像画の背景に使われる灰色に微妙な蓬色などの和的な緑が織り交ぜられ、そこに渋味と親しみを再確認できたことが収穫として印象に残った。モディリアーニらしい充分にアンニュイな空気を吸って帰ったが、それにしても女性ファンが多かった。

I had a fairly quick scan of Modigliani exhibition at the National Art Center. Firstly, the fact that primitive African art affected Modigliani’s ultimate form in a way like Copernican change was viewed among the collection of cariatid works.
The other impressive finding to me was the background grey color of his portraits that tended to blend with subtle greenish, something like felon herb color that overlapped with genuinely Japanese bitterness to stimulate a mood of intimacy. The languid air of Modigliani was abundant in the paintings, and the exhibition seemed to have been filled with female visitors.
