Works in Progress: Original Materials from the Netherlands (January 30 - June 28, 2020)
The exhibition Works in Progress: Original Materials from the Netherlands opened at the Picker Art Gallery on January 30, 2020. As a response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the Picker closed its doors to the public on March 14, 2020. This digital resource was created to provide continued access to the main themes presented in the exhibition. Viewers are invited to follow our investigation of the works’ original significance and centuries-long journey before coming to the Picker by looking closely at the objects themselves, as well as their recorded traces in archives and literature. Research remains a work in progress and the website—which will be updated through June 30, 2020 to share new insights with the public—considers both the potential and the limitations of art historical, archival, and object-based methods to shed light on all that remains unknown about museum collections. On view January 30, 2020 - March 14, 2021.
