In het LICHT (Into the LIGHT)

In cooperation with the Diocesan Museum and at the same time as the exhibition “Radiance“, an exhibition entitled “In het LICHT (Into the LIGHT)” is taking place at Museum Krona, Uden (NL).

From 17 to 19 March 2023, there will be the opportunity to travel to Uden with the Diözesanmuseum team and visit the exhibition with a curator tour.

In this presentation, too, light installations, photography and painting by contemporary artists are juxtaposed with medieval masterpieces. Precious objects made of gold, silver and rock crystal from Dutch and German treasure troves and contemporary light artworks make it possible to experience the sensual and spiritual dimensions of light.

Works of art by world-renowned artists such as James Turrell, Olafur Eliasson, Gabriel Lester and Navid Nuur are combined with examples of medieval light mysticism, with tablets, manuscripts and objects made of precious metals and gemstones whose light reflections want to lead the viewer to the “true light”. One of the highlights is a precious stone-encrusted cross relic from Hildesheim dating from before 1080.

The exhibition features artworks by Jan Andriesse, Marinus Boezem, Suzan Drummen, Jan van Duijnhoven, Olafur Eliasson, Guido Geelen, Kees de Goede, Yayoi Kusama, Ann Veronica Janssens, Gabriel Lester, Willem Marijs, Matthijs Munnik, Matthijs Muller, Navid Nuur, Jan Theun van Rees, Roland Schimmel, Berndnaut Smilde, James Turrell, Veerle Thoben.
