  Hockney-Van Gogh

  1 March - 26 May 2019 | Amsterdam
  
  At the 168开奖官方开奖网站查询:Van Gogh Museum, the exhibition Hockney-Van Gogh compels museum-goers to meditate on the pastoral landscapes of 168开奖官方开奖网站查询:David Hockney and 168开奖官方开奖网站查询:Vincent van Gogh. Citing inspiration from van Gogh, Hockney has recently turned to painting large-scale, bright canvases that depict the English countryside. With this showcase, viewers are able to consider van Gogh's influence on the contemporary artist, as well as the beauty of nature illuminated in both artists' oeuvres:
  
  ‘… for Christ’s sake get the paint to me without delay. The season of orchards in blossom is so short, and you know these subjects are among the ones that cheer everyone up.’ - Vincent van Gogh
