On paper: Drawings by Ghent artists from the museum鈥檚 collection
Jul 14, 2018 - Sep 16, 2018
This summer, the Museum of Fine Arts Ghent (MSK) will make the most out of its rich collection of drawings. The central theme of the exhibition 鈥極n paper鈥� is the City of Ghent and the artists who lived, passed through or settled here. For each of them, the artistic context of local life in Ghent was a limitless source of inspiration.These rarely seen gems in black and white and in colour, drawn by both renowned and unjustifiably forgotten artists, will be brought out of storage by the museum. The exhibition will also serve as the launching pad for a series of presentations from the MSK collection, which will allow some rare treasures from the museum鈥檚 print room to see the light of day.
