As an example, he mentions one grouping of three landscapes by Matisse and Picasso
The show begins with two self-portraits from 1906, when Matisse and Picasso were introduced to each other by Gertrude Stein in Paris
Almost all the tickets are being sold in advance; so far, 65,000 timed-entry tickets have been sold and some Saturdays are almost sold out One the other hand, if you ever wanted a great draw to pull people to the new facility, this was it," he said People have a declining attention span," he said
The Queens museum has been drawing an average of 1,000 to 2,000 visitors daily, compared to 3,000 to 4,000 at its location on West 53rd Street in Manhattan While waiting for the paintings to be shipped back to their lending institutions, he brought out some of the museum's own Picasso works to display with them
"You can not only look at those three landscapes but turn just a few degrees and see the Matisse blue nude from 1907 â€â€? a reclining figure in a landscape setting â€â€? and get a real sense of how everything relates with everything else," he said
Kirk Varnedoe, one of the show's six curators, called mounting "Matisse Picasso" in Queens "a double-edged sword
The line will take visitors from Manhattan across the East River to the Museum of Modern Art's temporary location in Queens, where the expected blockbuster exhibit "Matisse Picasso" opens Thursday
While the curators won't reveal details, they acknowledge that participating museums had to find more money for the show He said the cavernous rooms and 21-foot-high ceilings in the old factory gave the organizers much more flexibility when installing the works

Museum of Modern Art: http://www 11 terrorist attacks, which caused insurance costs to rise and made some collectors and museums nervous about sending works to the United States MoMA will issue timed-entry tickets spaced every 30 minutes; up to 300 people will be admitted per half hour
The museum has sent out literature stressing that MoMA is the only American location for the exhibit and urging those interested in seeing it to sign up for membership, promising "special viewing privileges that will increase your enjoyment of this unprecedented show Weil, a scholar emeritus at the Smithsonian Institution's Center for Education and Museum Studies It features side-by-side displays of 138 works from two of the most important artists of the 20th century, and covers almost 50 years
"It's been a stretch, but we have been able to do it and feel very comfortable that we have the kind of comprehensive coverage we need," Elderfield said
Once the museums decided to try the same thing on a large scale, the curators started traveling with postcard-sized pictures to lay out in a mini-exhibit to persuade museums and private owners to lend works to the show that would add to the museums' already sizable Matisse and Picasso collections What I've felt with this exhibition is we can get the groups together in the best possible way," said Elderfield, MoMA's chief curator at large
They would frequently visit each other's studio, and the exhibit demonstrates that while their styles were different, they often inspired each other to experiment with new ideas Previously, it was shown at the Tate Modern in London and the Grand Palais in Paris MoMA to Host 'Matisse Picasso' Exhibit

The No An indemnity for the exhibition at MoMA was granted by the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities, meaning the government helps with the insurance costs
The show is a collaboration between MoMA, the Tate Modern in London, and the Musée Picasso and Musée National d'Art Moderne in Paris, and draws works from dozens of other museums and private collections "
John Elderfield, another of the exhibit's curators, sees some benefits in the temporary space
The tickets will help with traffic flow, but it's an imperfect science â€â€? similar to restaurant reservations â€â€? because you cannot control how long museum-goers stay, said Stephen E
"Every exhibition needs ideally a different kind of space MoMA's home in Manhattan had 85,000 square feet, compared to 25,000 square feet in Queens
"But that's true of all museums
In fact, the curators feel the show tells itself visually so well in the Queens space that they have discarded a number of the wall labels moma com
"Anybody who saw it just went, 'Wow!'" Varnedoe said
"That was a stunning little display that got people's minds to spinning," Varnedoe said
Showing such a huge show in the temporary spot has raised some concerns, however
"Matisse Picasso" will be on display through May 19 at the Museum of Modern Art in Queens org/

"It seems like the kind of show you'd crawl on broken glass to get to," he said
The curators said that while some of the loans took a long time coming, they did get most of what they wanted
The Museum of Modern Art, known as MoMA, has been located in a huge, bright blue former stapler factory in Queens while its Manhattan home undergoes a $650 million expansion and renovation, scheduled to be completed in 2005
And then came the Sept matissepicasso "The eyes gets tired and want refreshment Although their personalities were â€â€? in Matisse's words â€â€? "As different as the north pole is from the south pole," over the years they came to regard the other as his only true peer
The exhibit, charting the complicated, decades-long friendship and rivalry between Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse, has already received raves and played to huge crowds in London and Paris
Varnedoe, a former chief curator at MoMA, said the museum's coatroom and cafeteria have been revamped for the exhibit, and that "care and exact planning" have gone into managing crowds "
"On one hand, it would be more familiar and convenient to have it on 53rd Street
While the actual exhibit has been in the works for about six years, it got its genesis in 1993 at the close of a Matisse retrospective Elderfield organized at MoMA "
As for the new location, Varnedoe doesn't believe it will impede the exhibit's success 7 subway train is about to get a lot more crowded The Queens location also has a much smaller lobby in which visitors can wait and far fewer seats in its eating area
There is also certain to be crowding at the beginning of the exhibit, Weil said, as visitors stop to read every piece of text and stare at every painting, before thinning as the pace picks up for the rest of the show
But "Matisse Picasso" is expected to be a hot ticket that could lure hundreds of thousands to the temporary spot
