""We're at a really important moment where we're re-evaluating what our western art history canon actually is, understanding that it stretches way beyond France, Germany and Italy, and trying to absorb the achievements of those artists that were otherwise regarded as being on the outskirts of the central canon.""
""What Dulwich's brilliant, revelatory programme does is it allows us to look at some of those artists in greater detail and understand where they fit in that context.""
The Dulwich Picture Gallery hosts the first UK exhibition of Konrad Mägi, an influential Estonian Modernist painter. The exhibition features over 60 works, many previously unseen outside Estonia. Curated by Kathleen Soriano, it aims to broaden the understanding of Western art history by including artists like Mägi. The exhibition is organized chronologically and thematically, starting with Mägi's early influences in Norway and Paris, highlighting his vibrant color use and romantic mysticism in landscapes.
