Jheronimus Bosch exhibition continues in Venice

Continuing through June 4 in Venice (Doge’s Palace, Doge’s Apartment) is the exhibition Jheronimus Bosch and Venice, which brings together several works by important artists of the period around Bosch’s three masterpieces preserved in the lagoon city: the Triptych of Saint Liberata, the Triptych of the Hermits, and the Polyptych of the Visions of the Afterlife, all recently restored following a campaign funded by the Bosch Research and Conservation Project (brcp) and the Getty Foundation in Los Angeles. Some fifty works by artists such as Albrecht Dürer, Jacopo Palma the Younger, Quentin Matsys, and Domenico Campagnola reconstruct not only the context within which Bosch worked, but also the connections between Venice, Holland, and Flanders at the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries.

The exhibition, curated by Bernard Aikema with the scientific coordination of Gabriella Belli and Anton Maria Zanetti, “leads us to rediscover,” as the presentation press release states, “a deliberately enigmatic art and an absolutely ambiguous figurative culture that never ceases to intrigue, to make people discuss, to amaze.”

The exhibition follows, from April 1, the hours 8:30 a.m.-7 p.m. Full 12 euros, concessions 10 euros for children aged 6 to 14, students aged 15 to 25, citizens over 65, MiBACT personnel, Museum Pass and VeneziaUnica Pack holders, Rolling Venice Card or Youth Card or Cinema Plus Service Card holders, Icom members, Trenitalia customers (Freccia travelers with destination Venice, FS Group personnel and Freccia Card holders), Touring Club members, FAI members, groups (minimum 15 people).
