In a Norwegian Wood. Norwegian Art of the Last Decade


Zachęta Narodowa Galeria Sztuki 
Plac Małachowskiego 3
tel. (+48 22) 827 58 54; fax.(+48 22) 827 78 86

An important purpose of this exhibition is to create an open and inviting space for perception; for understanding and curiosity amongst a Polish public, presenting certain aspects of the contemporary Norwegian art scene. The works will rather emphasize on a certain range of themes, then on chronology. One curatorial aspect which will be of great interest is to exchange points of view for selecting the group of works to meet up with differences and mutual interests and knowledge. The curatorial strategy would be, on the one hand, to arrange a group of works that manage to show some “new” points of interests for a Polish public, and on the other hand to manage to link up with some tendencies that will connect the chosen works with a range of recognizable aspects known from Polish contemporary art.

The display, which has been held in temporary exhibition rooms, is devoted to the graphic activity of Rembrandt van Rijn. Graphic arts, along with paintings and drawings constitute a vast part of Rembrandt's artistic output. Unquestionably he was a master in this field and up to this day he has been recognized as one of the most eminent European graphic artist.The majority of works presented on the display come from Rembrandt's Museum in Amsterdam (Museum het Rembrandthuis), which has also prepared a schedule of the exhibition.
The graphic arts have been divided into thematic groups. Along with self-portraits and biblical scenes there are following subject categories: Alegories, Fantasy, Mythology, Genre, Studies, Landscapes and Portraits. While visiting the exhibition you are cordially welcomed to a museum shop with souvenirs relating to Rembrandt's graphic output. Particularly attractive are contemporary copies of the artist's selected engravings. In a Polish version of the catalogue there is a short essay on Rembrandt's graphic activity and the history of the Collection of Rembrandt's Museum in Amsterdam. Additionally, one can find materials about the artist's life, illustrations and captions to all exhibits on the display.
