SPONSORSHIP

Natixis sponsors the Degas à l’Opéra exhibition at the Musée d’Orsay to mark the 350th anniversary of the Paris Opera, from September 24, 2019 to January 19, 2020.

Edgar Degas’ work takes us right into the heart of the Opera during this exhibition, as he investigated its various spaces and focused on the different people involved – dancers, musicians and spectators. His art captures the movement and reflects a range of viewpoints as it reveals the details of the stage and provides the viewer with echoes of its song, music and dance.

Natixis, sponsor of the exhibition “From Van Gogh to Picasso: treasures of the Guggenheim” held at the royal palace (Palazzo Reale) in Milan from the 16th of October to the 9th of March 2020.

Following the company’s donation, the Thannhauser collection, including works by the likes of Van Gogh and Picasso, left the Guggenheim museum in New York to come to Europe for the first time. Having been exhibited in Bilbao in Spain, Aix en Provence in France and Milan in Italy, the collection returned to New York where it will remain for the next 50 years at the Guggenheim.

It highlights the inventiveness of the artists, as well as the depth and wide variety of this artistic standpoint. Visitors will be treated to an unprecedented galaxy of cubist masterpieces.

Natixis counts itself among the sponsors of Jeff Koons’ “Bouquet of Tulips”, a work gifted to the city of Paris as a token of the American people’s support for Parisians and Frenchmen and women who were bereaved by the attacks of 2015-2016.
