How do you curate a scandal? Our Chief Curator and Co-curator of “Matisse’s Femme au chapeau: A Modern Scandal,” Janet Bishop, talks us through the making of this exhibition and the lasting impact of “Femme au chapeau” in the art world. From an Easter egg in the exhibition’s wallpaper to colorized projections of the apartment where “Femme au chapeau” hung after being purchased from the 1905 Salon d’Automne, hear behind-the-scenes details from Janet. Then visit the exhibition on Floor 4 to transport back in time to 1905 Paris. — [Photo 1, bottom: View of a gallery at the Grand Palais during the Salon d’Automne, 1904.
