THE COLLECTION 14 September - 31 December 2024 various artists
ANS DEKKERS, 3 photos from the FREULE series, no. 8, 6 and 7, 15 x 11 cm. Galerie Westerstorm invites you to THE COLLECTION, a group exhibition with various artists about collecting contemporary art. People already collected art in ancient Egypt, Greece and Roman times. In the late Middle Ages, it was mainly the nobility and church dignitaries. Early forms of art collections by private individuals were also called the art rooms or Wunderkammer. From 1800 the emancipated bourgeoisie took over the role of patron and the museum was founded. In the 20th century new private art collections emerged. THE COLLECTION shows how building an art collection can be done out of pure passion for art. The first step towards your own art collection is making choices so that the works of art fit together. An art collection can be about the oeuvre of a single artist, a group of artists or a specific style period and can be extremely versatile. The eclectic collection in Galerie Westerstorm has diversity, depth and a common thread. |
