The sensuous design of the exhibition is the work of the set designer duo Vang Stensgaard.
In After Nature 鈥 A New Reading of the Glyptotek鈥檚 Paintings by Writer Josefine Klougart, Josefine Klougart uses the prism of art to study the relationship of humans with nature. Nature as we knew it no longer exists. Klougart explores its beauty, and its disappearance from our modern reality.
The exhibition and the text go hand in hand; both feature seven 鈥榗hapters鈥. The artworks paint a picture of the period when industrialisation made an indelible mark on the climate. The exhibition includes masterpieces from the Glyptotek鈥檚 collection: by French painters such as Edgar Degas, Paul C茅zanne, Paul Gauguin and Henri Rousseau; and by Danish painters such as Christen K酶bke, Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg and Johan Thomas Lundbye.
