Upcoming Gallery and Museum Shows, continuing thread

 
 
Reply Sat 15 Oct, 2005 04:23 pm
I follow some gallery and museum openings on a website, ArtUpdate.com and I run across other gallery announcements that look interesting as I look around the Web or in some magazines or newspapers.

I'll add some of the links I see that catch my eye, either for the particular show or because the gallery website is nifty. Please add show announcements that look interesting to you as well.

We do have a policy at a2k of not promoting ourselves by posting our own websites - in case you show in a gallery or have a gallery, please refrain from adding that to this thread. Note though that an a2k member can put their favorite website on their profile page.

If you so request, artupdate.com will send email updates from their list of galleries around the world every two weeks.

Nice website. I think my computer is slow today (I have to weed out some of the many links I save) and after about twenty minutes I still haven't seen all the names' works.
I'm not drawn myself to any of the work I've seen so far - except for one and it was only on the screen a second and I didn't find it again.

I'll check the site again later after I do some more trimming of my files.

if you click on the names one image shows and off to the right is a pull down bar which makes the others by that artist come up larger There were a couple I liked particularly - the seascapes was one (unsurprisingly! but i love the light and emptiness and the compositions)



The work of Peter Pargison and Len Tabner appealed to me

I hope the site behaves for you

I didn't get to them. I can work the site, but the transitions are very slow for my computer.

that's a shame

is it any better if I post a direct link to the 2 I like?

Peter P

and

len t

I think it would be a memory-hungry site



Portal has posted a thread

asking for advice when she talks to a gallery she's seeing - I said you'd be good - can you advise her?

I'll check.
I'm getting low memory notices all over the place today - and I don't want to buy new memory, I want to buy a new computer, but not this week.

I'm not bowled over by Peter P today, for whatever reasons, but Tabner does interest me generally; this is the piece I had seen for a second and hadn't found -

I like it - he generally works pretty big as well so they are really lovely and loose and gestural when you see them in real life.

I too would love a new computer

checking in.

The NYTimes reported that there was a good Fra Angelico exhibit opening at the Metropolitan Museum. October 26, 2005-January 29, 2006

Includes 75 of his works plus "forty-five additional works by his assistants and closest followers."

Oops, missed this thread Embarrassed

So, posting here again:


Another exhibition noted in my time schedule:

As from autumn 2005, the Kunstsammlung NRW will show a selection of exquisite loans from internationally renowned museums - such as the important collections of modern art in London, New York, Paris, St. Petersburg and from private collectors. This big exhibition of works from Matisse, the first in a German-speaking country since more than twenty years, will show about eighty paintings, supplemented by high-quality drawings and sculptures.


Henri Matisse: Figure Colour Space (kind of slide show on that site)



My state's gallery:
North Rhine-Westphalia's Art Collection - Kunstsammlung NRW

Location: Duesseldorf

In its forty year history the Kunstsammlung NRW has established its own unmistakable profile as a museum for 20th century art, and has long been recognised internationally for its outstanding collection of paintings, including works by Picasso, Braque, Ernst, Chagall, Léger, Klee.

Since 2002 its collection expanded into a new museum and building, called "K 21". Here the work that the Kunstsammlung has carried out so successfully in the past enters a new era, with international contemporary art and art of the 21st century.

Harvest Moon


When I saw this painting in Manchester about a year ago in the City Gallery, it reminded me a lot of German romantic painters (due to my German teacher, we did a lot of various studies in romantism at school).

wow - interesting links Walter, I like Samuel Palmer and a friend loves his work, so I must tell her about this.

The RA looks fascinating as well.
