Upcoming special exhibitions

For the first time in Denmark, at the Nivaagaard Collection we are featuring an exhibition of the English Bloomsbury Group. The group emerged as a powerful force within the cultural and intellectual circles of England in the early 1900s, known for their radical attitudes, anti-authoritarian outlook and a lifestyle that was considered transgressive by the social mores of the time. They lived out a utopia and conducted a radical social experiment that broke with the norms of the Victorian age. In many ways, they were harbingers of the debates we see playing out today in regards to gender, sexual identity, imperialism, colonialism and alternative lifestyles.

DR’s kommende sæson af Kunstnerkolonien med værker af seks markante samtidskunstnere kan opleves til december, når serien får premiere DR TV - og i virkeligheden fra den 10. januar på Malerisamlingen i et nyt møde med museets kunstsamling.

I samarbejde med Museum Kunst der Westküste ser vi frem til at kaste et nyt blik på den danske maler Janus la Cour (1837-1909). Malerisamlingen ejer selv et stort værk af kunstneren samt værker af læremesteren P.C. Skovgaard, som la Cour boede hos i sin studietid.
