Birds of a Feather
Between 1953 and 1966, New York assemblage artist Joseph Cornell created more than twenty works in homage to Juan Gris, specifically inspired by the Cubist’s collage masterpiece, The Man at the Café(1914). Cornell’s Gris boxes have as their centerpiece the image of a bird, the great white-crested cockatoo, whose delightful and erudite connections to the Cubist’s oeuvre and to Cornell’s own hobbies, love of music, and distinctive approach to modern art are comprehensively documented here for the first time.

Do Ho Suh
This catalogue accompanies the very first solo show in the Netherlands to feature South Korean artist Do Ho Suh (b. 1962), on display in Museum Voorlinden. His architectural installations evoke the personal memories and inner experiential world of the viewer. Suh is interested in the way in which we, as human beings, relate to the spaces in which we live and what it means to be ?at home?. The artist?s replicas of his previous homes, made by hand and recreated down to the smallest detail, capture an experience that lies somewhere between a dream and reality. Inspired by his personal experiences, his work transcends the purely biographical and touches on universal themes such as belonging, memory, identity and migration. Voorlinden exhibits sculptural installations, scale models, drawings and videos by the artist.00Exhibition: Museum Voorlinden, Wassenaar, The Netherlands (17.05.-29.09.2019).

Wayne Thiebaud: Art Comes from Art features the artist's virtuosic appropriations and reinterpretations of old and new European and American artworks, spanning from Andrea Mantegna to Édouard Manet, Henri Matisse to Richard Diebenkorn, offering crucial insights into his creative process. Thiebaud's ex...
Van Poe tot Pooh
Tijdens haar oratie gaat Saskia de Bodt na hoe het vak van illustrator zich heeft ontwikkeld op het snijvlak van de kunst enerzijds en de literatuur anderzijds. Ze constateert hoe illustratie, vanwege het narratieve aspect, het in de kunstgeschiedenis altijd heeft moeten afleggen tegen de autonome kunst. En hoe literatuurhistorici en filologen het woord altijd boven het beeld hebben gesteld. De Bodt geeft invalshoeken en aanknopingspunten voor onderzoek in dit nieuwe vakgebied. Aan de hand van onder meer de illustraties bij de sprookjes van Andersen en de fantastische verhalen en gedichten van Edgar Allan Poe toont ze aan dat juist het beeld bij teksten onverwachte informatie kan opleveren, ...
