E-Paper Art in Düsseldorf 2016 Englisch

Before the curtain. Behind the veil. Unveiling and veiling since the Renaissance 01.10.2016–12.01.2017 Museum Kunstpalast www.smkp.de The exhibition is dedicated to the motifs of “veil” and “curtain” and thus also to fundamental questions around painting and visual art: What do we get to see in the picture? What does it conceal? The appealing and artistically virtuoso interplay between showing and hiding, concealing and revealing, is exemplified in the high-calibre loans from international museums – from Titian to Rubens to Gerhard Richter, and with paintings ranging from the Renaissance and Baroque to Modernism and the present day.
