Motherhood by Amedeo Modigliani. The LaM collection of modern art features the connection between three series — modern and contemporary art and Art Brut, or Raw Art, and a French school that produced art in the early 20th century that is crude, childlike and primitive. The exhibition at Bund One Art Museum is designed in chronological order, arranged in four sections — Cubism, Amedeo Modigliani, Dream Paintings and Expressive Color — to show the short history of France's modern art through the eyes of LaM's founding collectors. Upstairs at the Bund One Art Museum, another French exhibition is being held till Jan 5. If you go Picasso, Modigliani & Modern Art: Masterpieces from LaM Museum 10 am-6 pm, till Feb 9.
