This is Rotterdam-based American artist Ellen Gallagher's first solo exhibition in Amsterdam. The installation reflects the diversity of Gallagher’s artistic practice in which painting, cut and carved rubber, crumpled notebook papers and metal beat to airy thinness intertwine in a dynamic relationship.
The retrospective exhibition Martin Wong: Malicious Mischief shows the work of Chinese-American artist Martin Wong. The exhibition consists of paintings, drawings, sculptures and personal memorabilia. Wong is known for his portrayals of social, sexual and political issues in the United States from the 1970s to the 1990s.
He was a pioneer in many fields, and introduced several new themes to Dutch painting. He made the Netherlands’ first floral still life, and was the most notable painter of the legendary (extinct) dodo. He was also the first artist who went out into the streets to draw ordinary people. His painted landscapes are often like a fairytale, featuring ancient ruins and marvellous vistas. And his animal paintings include so many species that it would be an understatement to describe them as 'crowded'. Roelant Savery's Wondrous World, featuring over 40 paintings and drawings, including works on loan from museums in the Netherlands and abroad.
This exhibition shows a cross-section of the oeuvre of a unique painter. The exhibition shows the world through the eyes of Max Beckmann, who gives meaning to the chaos of the modern world around him with a special, personal visual language and idiosyncratic representation of space.
Exceptionally innovative, entertaining and full of courage: Frans Hals was one of the most decisive painters of the 17th century. His idiosyncratic, loose painting style became so influential that you would almost forget that he was the founder of it. Discover the regions of Frans Hals in a unique exhibition with around fifty works from (inter)national top collections.
The work of Chinese-Canadian artist Matthew Wong (1984-2019) is dynamic, colorful and expressive. Of the many artists he was inspired by, Vincent van Gogh was one of the most important. Discover more about Wong's work and his artistic connection with Van Gogh.
