Me, Myself and I [Art Books, Prints and Objects]
from 1 December 2005 (thu) until 8 January 2006 (sun)

This exhibition is a reflection on Canadian society about the day to day life and the human relations in general. The intention of the artist is to translate social, psychological and philosophical views trough the art language of the texture by printmaking works, handmade books and objects. Melinda Pap is working in research of the texture of the art work since 7 years starting first by painting and going further to printmaking she is mixing different medium discovering new ways of sending her artistic messages. Melinda started to experiment by printmaking using photo copy with linocut, later on combining dry point, linocut and lithograph with the possibilities of the new technologies.
One of the biggest cycles of the artist IDENTITE started in 2003 with the creation of a little image of a person which has been transformed about 560 times in different persons in prints, books and objects (some of them sculptures).







Rembrandt in Rotterdam


Rembrandt in Rotterdam
Drawings in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen

Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen has a collection of 36 drawings made by Rembrandt himself. In addition, there are 160 drawings by pupils and artists from his environment, showing the artistic influence of the great master from the Golden Age. Most of the drawings are from the world-famous Koenigs Collection. The exhibition, curtain raiser for the Rembrandt year 2006 in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, is offering a rare opportunity to admire not only the complete collection of drawings by Rembrandt in Rotterdam, but also a wide selection of drawings by his contemporaries.

Prints in the Golden Age: from art to shelf paper
21 January 2006 - 19 March 2006
The Golden Age was not only the heyday of the art of painting; the art of printing also bloomed in that period: Goltzius, Buytewech, Van Ostade and Rembrandt were the masters of the Golden Age. Their etchings and engravings were as famous then as they are now. The prints featured in the exhibition at Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen tell a story as yet untold: the story of the ordinary visual world with which the seventeenth-century Dutchman surrounded himself, even if money was scarce.
