The Dresden collection's singular group of Rembrandt works - about
20 drawings attributed to the master today and the nearly complete
oeuvre of etchings- will provide the basis for this remarkable
publication. It will have a particular focus on Rembrandt's
narrative compositions, printed self-portraits, studies of his wife
Saskia, and will include works from all periods of his oeuvre plus
prints and drawings by artists from his workshop and followers. The
list of artists who understood Rembrandt as a dynamic authority and
source of inspiration is long, reaching from his immediate
followers to masters of the 18th century, from Giovanni Benedetto
Castiglione to Jonathan Richardson to the kindred spirit Francisco
de Goya, into the 20th century and up to the present day. Examples
include Edouard Manet, Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, Lovis Corinth, Kathe
Kollwitz, Max Beckmann, Pablo Picasso, as well as Marlene Dumas and
William Kentridge and artists from the GDR such as A.R. Penck. By
including works by these artists, the exhibtion and catalogue
foreground Rembrandt as one of the most important 'artists' artist'
of all time. Select juxtapositions will help the reader better
understand the fi reworks of creativity that Rembrandt not only lit
in his own time but those he continues to ignite today. Rembrandt
remains eternally captivating, not only because of his radical
choices and unconventional interpretations of Christian and profane
pictorial subjects, but also because of his joy in experimentation,
especially in the use of printing and drawing techniques, and his
refl ective, humorous intellect, complemented by his sensually
direct approach to the world. With a light hand, he broke open the
conventions of his era. The pictorial worlds that he created with
his free, decisive mark convey his near inexhaustible interest in
nature as creation, whether it be the human exterior or interior,
and off er a wealth of connecting points and constellations for
other artists as well as for the viewer.
