The Albertina will present a major exhibition comprising some 140 works by Henri Matisse and the Fauves, whose works are nowadays considered true trailblazers of Modernism. The works by these artists, who were once dubbed what translates as “wild beasts”, are on display in Austria for the first time. Besides Henri Matisse, the movement included André Derain, Maurice de Vlaminck, Georges Braque, and Kees van Dongen.
