Stern Pissarro Gallery - Curated selection for BRAFA 2026
05/11/2025
Stern Pissarro Gallery is pleased to present a carefully curated selection of impressionist, modern and contemporary works at BRAFA 2026. Spanning the late nineteenth century to today, the presentation reflects the gallery’s focus on established international artists.
Among the highlights is Confidence, les enfants Bernheim au salon by Édouard Vuillard, an exceptional domestic interior from a pivotal moment in his career that captures the intimate atmosphere of the Bernheim family home. Louis Hayet’s Sur les Champs-Élysées (1888) offers a vibrant example of early Pointillism, combining precise divided brushwork with a luminous palette.
Amedeo Modigliani’s Homme à la barbe, a fine work on paper published in Ceroni’s 1956 catalogue raisonné, exemplifies the artist’s elegant economy of line, while Marc Chagall’s L’hiver procession de Noël (Les quatre saisons) connects directly to his celebrated mosaic for Chicago’s Chase Tower Plaza.
Works on paper by Henry Moore and Paul Delvaux reveal each artist’s mastery of form and composition on an intimate scale. Contemporary highlights include Chiharu Shiota’s Endless Line, a two-dimensional work made using her signature red thread, and Yayoi Kusama’s Visionary Wave Crest (1978), a striking Infinity Net painting from 1978, combining enamel and acrylic to create a fascinating texture.
