Two brothers, distinct choices
Chapter 01
A name shared by two lives
Mikhail Morozov and his brother Ivan are brought together in the Fondation Louis Vuitton’s account of the Morozov Collection. The exhibition connects their collecting with French and Russian modern art.
Chapter 02
Keep the biographies separate
A family collection can conceal differences between people. Reading its history carefully means asking which collector acquired a work, in what setting, and how later exhibitions grouped those decisions together.
Chapter 03
Where to begin
The 2021–2022 Paris exhibition and its catalogue provide a route into that shared history. This profile treats the exhibition as a source and a point of departure, without assigning undocumented motives to either brother.
