Three weeks after Shanghai, the project for the centenary of Modigliani's death arrives in Beijing. From 7 November to 6 December 2020 the Yindi Art Museum hosts "百年莫迪 全球首展（版画）", presented as the world's first exhibition devoted to the centenary prints: lithographs reproducing some of the artist's best-known portraits, from Jeanne Hébuterne to the female figures of his last years, produced in a limited edition for the anniversary.
The installation welcomes the public outside the museum, with the large banner on the façade, and continues in the atrium, where a portrait several storeys high descends from the glass wall, and on the grand staircase, transformed into a reclining nude. In the white rooms the lithographs are displayed side by side, accompanied by introductory texts. Many guests and the press, including television crews, attend the opening.
As in Shanghai, Amalart curated and organised the exhibition, handled the loan of the works and coordinated the project from Italy, in a year in which travel was almost impossible.
