What happens when new masters pick up where old masters left off?
On the occasion of the bicentenary of the Mauritshuis in The Hague,
the museum asked contemporary photographers to reflect on the
permanent collection. Which masters capture their imagination? How
do they interpret 17th-century art? The result: 16 new works by 16
contemporary photographs, including Erwin Olaf, Rineke Dijkstra,
Anton Corbijn and Stephan Vanfleteren, one for each room in the
Mauritshuis. The new works will be displayed alongside the
17th-century works that inspired them and will be put equally next
to each other in this luxury book. The photographers were entirely
free to select what they wanted to work with. For some it was a
painting, for another a detail from a painting, or even an entire
room in the museum. Expect to see original and surprising
reflections on 17th-century art: counterparts, commentaries,
alternatives. None of the photographs is a remake of the original
painting. One thing is certain: you will never look at Rembrandt,
Vermeer or Steen in the same way. Text in English and Dutch.
