The fourth and final volume of the catalogues of drawings by Van Gogh at the Van Gogh Museum will be published in September. To mark the occasion, works on paper seldom shown due to their light sensitivity will be on display in the print room of the Rietveld building from 13 July until 21 October 2007. (The original closing date was 7 October.)
Vincent van Gogh (1853–90)
Landscape with cottage, 1888
Amsterdam, Van Gogh Museum (Vincent van Gogh Foundation)
Years of research have led to surprising new insights in Van Gogh’s way of working. Based on a selection of his drawings, attention is paid to Van Gogh’s stylistic development, use of materials, technique and experimentation and consequently the place that these works occupy in his oeuvre.
The exhibition features works spanning Van Gogh’s entire career as an artist, which began in the Netherlands and ended in France. However, the emphasis lies on the works he executed during the last two years of his life (1889-1890). In addition special attention will be paid to several early drawings that have been added to the museum collection in recent years.
