Upcoming
Transformation of the World – Masterpieces by Hendrick Goltzius
From 31/10/2020 until 31/01/2021
With his narrative representations and playful new creations, the Dutch engraver and painter Hendrik Goltzius (1558-1617) already made a name for himself during his lifetime. Unlike many of his contemporaries, this all-round talent worked simultaneously as a designer, engraver and publisher. His Roman heroes, goddesses and angels pay homage to the human body and radiate a dynamic force. The show is a co-operation with the Georg-August University Göttingen.
Modern Love
From 03/10/2020 until 07/03/2021
In the digital, capitalist consumer society, love has become a tradable commodity. The exhibition examines intimate relationships in the age of internet, social media and increasing mobility - the age of so-called "cold intimacies". What is threatening love? What could be a way out of emotional sterility and loneliness? Curator Katerina Gregos realises this project for the Freiburger Museum für Neue Kunst and the Kunsthalle Tallinn.
