Koyupinar © Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen The collection of the Alte Pinakothek, one of the most significant in the world, encompasses over 700 artworks from the 14th to the 18th cen­ tu ries. Here, milestones of the European painting tradition join to form a survey, in unique concentration, that spans the development from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance and Baroque, through to the late Rococo period. Experience encounters with works by Dürer, Raphael, Leonardo, Titian, El Greco, Rubens, Rembrandt, Boucher and their contemporaries. The museum, contracted by the Bavarian King Ludwig I, was built by Leo von Klenze between 1826 and 1836 in the Neoclassical style, which at the time represented a new and pioneering effort in European museum architecture. Originally, the Alte Pinakothek was intended to make suf­ fi cient space available for the art collection of the House of Wittelsbach. Over and above this, King Ludwig I sought to use the construction of the Alte Pinakothek as a means of providing the general public access to his collection. In addition to the permanent presentation of outstanding works from the golden ages of German, Flemish, Dutch, French, Italian and Spanish painting, a host of temporary special exhibitions, guided tours and events make a visit worthwhile. Due to Renovation works to Improve Energy Efficiency until 2017 certain parts of the Alte Pinakothek will be temporarily closed.

Koyupinar © Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen NEUE PINAKOTHEK KUNSTAREAL MUNICH The Alte Pinakothek and the Neue Pinakothek, together with the Pinakothek der Moderne, form a unique museum complex with art­ works from the Late Middle Ages to the present day. The Museum Brandhorst supplements in particular the collection focus of the Pinakothek der Moderne in the modern and contemporary art areas. Along with the Lenbachhaus museum, the Glyptothek and the State Antiques Collection at Königsplatz, and the Museum of Egyptian Art, the Kunstareal Munich (art quarter), located between the city centre and Schwabing, provides visitors with an opportunity to experience the entire spectrum of art spanning two thousand centuries. In addi­ tion, the Munich Documentation Centre for the History of National Socialism, which is currently under construction and set to open in spring 2015, will be a place of learning and commemoration. The Kunstareal is thus, with its 16 state and city collections and exhibition venues, its more than 40 galleries and numerous cultural institu­ tions surrounding the Pinakothek museums and the Lenbachhaus museum, as well as a broad diversity of university­related facilities, a culture and knowledge district of supra­regional radiance in the South Side and Entrance, Photo: H.

Masterworks from Munich: Sixteenth- to Eighteenth- Century Paintings from the Alte Pinakothek is the first major showing in this country of works of art from the renowned Bavarian art museum. Masterworks from Munich highlights examples of all the major schools of baroque painting within the wider context of the style's 16th-century antecedents and 18th-century evolution into the rococo. Included in the exhibition are Rubens' The Rape of the Daughters of Leucippus, Rembrandt's Risen Christ, Titian's Vanity, El Greco's The Disrobing of Christ, and Fragonard's Girl with a Dog as well as important works by Guardi, Tintoretto, Brueghel, Van Dyck, Ruisdael, Elsheimer, Murillo, Velazouez, Poussin, and Boucher. masterworks from Munich ... page two "An extraordinary loan has made this exhibition possible," said J. Carter Brown, director of the National Gallery. "The Alte Pinakothek has been extremely generous in offering works by old masters from its collection illustrating its wealth of northern and southern baroque painting. The quality level is superb. The American public is in for a rare treat." The collection was started by members of the ruling Wittelsbach family, Duke Wilhelm IV of Bavaria (ruled 1508-1550) and his wife Jacobaea of Baden, and augmented by subsequent family members, including Maximilian I (ruled 1597-1651), a passionate collector of Durers, and Max Emanuel (ruled 1679-1726).

  • 10 Years Museum Brandhorst
    PROGRAM 10 Years OCT–DEC 2019 Museum Brandhorst Brand New? 10 Years Museum Brandhorst As a museum for contemporary art we aspire to constantly seek out fresh, current and relevant work, to know what is “brand new” – just as it says on Ed Ruscha’s famous triangular painting from 2016, which we are currently showing on the stair- way to the lower floor. Therefore the second issue of our magazine series on the anniversary exhibition “Forever Young – 10 Years Museum Brandhorst” is focused on the present. It is against the present that we continuously measure our work. It keeps us alert, opens our eyes, and as a result the collection changes constantly (p. 2). In the last ten years it has grown by around 500 works. These new acquisitions include, for example, paintings by Monika Baer, who explains in an interview (p. 34) how it was and still is to prevail in the male-dominated field of painting. To give an impression of the diversity of these recent additions to the collection, our exhibition also Jens Hartmann Photo: changes at regular intervals: From mid-September we are showing newly-acquired pieces by R.H. Quaytman (p. 16) and Michael Krebber (p. 18) in Achim Hochdörfer the “Spot On” rooms on the ground floor, and from Director Museum Brandhorst November we will present the recently acquired video installation “Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore (20 Year Anniversary Remaster)” (1999–2019) by Mark Leckey (p. 20) in the media rooms on the lower floor. A legendary piece – twice as old as the museum – which invites us to celebrate a homage to the British club culture to this day.

  • “The Semiotics of the Imagery of the Greek War of Independence. from Delacroix to the Frieze in Otto’S Palace, the Current Hellenic Parliament”
    American Research Journal of Humanities & Social Science (ARJHSS)R) 2020 American Research Journal of Humanities & Social Science (ARJHSS) E-ISSN: 2378-702X Volume-03, Issue-01, pp 36-41 January-2020 www.arjhss.com Research Paper Open Access “The Semiotics of the Imagery of the Greek War of Independence. From Delacroix to the Frieze in Otto’s Palace, The Current Hellenic Parliament”. Markella-Elpida Tsichla University of Patras *Corresponding Author: Markella-Elpida Tsichla ABSTRACT:- The iconography of the Greek War of Independence is quite broad and it includes both real and imaginary themes. Artists who were inspired by this particular and extremely important historical event originated from a variety of countries, some were already well-known, such as Eugène Delacroix, others were executing official commissions from kings of Western countries, and most of them were driven by the spirit of romanticism. This paper shall not so much focus on matters of art criticism, but rather explore the manner in which facts have been represented in specific works of art, referring to political, religious and cultural issues, which are still relevant to this day. In particular, I shall comment on The Massacre at Chios by Eugène Delacroix, painted in 1824, the 39 Scenes from the Greek War of Independence by Peter von Hess, painted in 1835 and commissioned by King Ludwig I of Bavaria, and the frieze in the Trophy Room (currently Eleftherios Venizelos Hall) in Otto’s palace in Athens, currently housing the Hellenic Parliament, themed around the Greek War of Independence and the subsequent events. This great work was designed by German sculptor Ludwig Michael Schantahaler in 1840 and “transferred” to the walls of the hall by a group of Greek and German artists.

Its elongated volume extends like a colorful sphinx along Türkenstrasse, its towering head greeting visitors who arrive from Schwabing and Maxvorstadt. The façade, with its 36,000 ce- ramic rods, inspired by the colors of nearby buildings, thereby enters into lively communication with its surroundings. When we walk around the building, every step opens up a new play of colors and perspectives, yet Sauerbruch Hutton’s architecture also radiates formal clarity and independence. In this respect, the paradox which affects every museum of contemporary art already becomes evident outwardly. For the role of the Museum Brandhorst has been formulated by Armin Zweite as a place where “historicizing the present”: here, the public is presented with current artistic achievements that are expected to appear relevant from a future retrospective position.1 The collecting of contemporary art, then, is not a passive, purely documentary activity, but instead inter- venes directly into cultural production.
