En el imaginario del cine, la banda sonora a menudo había sido considerada un arte mayúsculo, pero secundario. Hoy, en cambio, es un género musical que levanta pasiones. No obstante, su historia sigue siendo muy poco conocida. * Desde las películas de la edad de oro de Hollywood hasta el cine más premiado o el más innovador de nuestros días, compositores como Bernard Herrmann, John Barry, Henry Mancini, Ennio Morricone, Alberto Iglesias, Alexandre Desplat o Jonny Greenwood han sabido entender a Hitchcock, Fellini, Godard, Almodóvar, Tarantino o Jane Campion y ofrecerles la banda sonora de sus sueños. Apoyada en algunos documentos gráficos de sus películas, esta es la historia de una música que nos encanta. "A menudo uso las mismas armonías que la música pop porque la complejidad de lo que hago está en otra parte. La música necesita una sala para respirar".
Berggruen’s collection with more than one hundred masterpieces is a spectacular tribute to the foresight of this major player in the Paris art market during the second half of the twentieth century. Born into a Jewish family in Berlin in 1914, he went into exile in California on the eve of World War II. He became art critic for the San Francisco Chronicle and assistant to the director of the San Francisco MoMA. After the war, Berggruen returned to Europe, first to Munich as a journalist, then to Paris where he worked at the UNESCO headquarters before becoming an art dealer specialized in the graphic arts of modern artists. He quickly established contacts within the Parisian cultural scene, meeting both the artists he would represent and the poets, dealers, historians, critics, and collectors of the day. Guided by his personal tastes, he built a solid collection of twentieth-century works now housed at the Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin spanning the careers of Pablo Picasso and Paul Klee and including Henri Matisse’s collages and Alberto Giacometti’s sculptures. The vast ensemble was exhibited at the Orangerie in 2024 and is housed in the Berggruen Museum/Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin.
