Experiencing Exhibitions

Fine, well thought out exhibitions in and around the city offer a journey into faraway places, myriad mediums and educational experiences. The highly unique and intriguing works in fabrics by the American artist Shelia Hicks offer a new take on colour and space while a show presenting hundreds of pieces of art jewels signed by, among others, Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali, reveals the jewel as a work of art. Exotic journeys await in an exhibition of paintings of faraway places as conceived by European artists while another show reveals the mutual influences Dutch and French painters had upon one another in centuries past. History is on the agenda, too, with a show devoted to black dolls offering a glimpse into African American culture in the 19th century and early 20th century while an exhibition devoted to the activists Beate and Serge Klarsfeld focuses on the couple’s fight for the memory of the victims of the Shoah. And never far from Paris are the masters with a show devoted to the great Renaissance artist Tintoretto and another revolving around Rembrandt.
