From Michelangelo to Picasso: Great
Master Drawings from the Collection
of the Albertina, Vienna is a
spectacular exhibition of 45 stellar
drawings from the Albertina museum in
Vienna. The exhibition features works by
some of the greatest artists in the history
of art - Michelangelo, Raphael, Leonardo
da Vinci, Durer, Poussin, Rubens,
Rembrandt, Tiepolo, Klimt, Schiele,
Klee, Kandinsky, Cezanne and Van
Gogh.
The selection of drawings in this
exhibition demonstrates the breadth and
strength of the Albertina’s holdings. The exhibition will provide a
comprehensive overview of 550 years of European master drawings
(1420-1988) from Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Flanders, Austria
and France. Highlights include Leonardo’s Figure of an Apostle,
Michelangelo’s Studies for Two Arms and Seated Male Nude,
Durer’s Head of an Old Man, Rembrandt’s Farm Houses under a
Stormy Sky, and Picasso’s Head of a Woman.
The Albertina has one of the greatest collections of drawings in
Europe. It seldom, if ever, sends groups of drawings from its
collection abroad. The Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto and the Frick
Gallery in New York are the sole venues for this exhibition, and as
such offer North Americans a rare opportunity to see some of the
treasures from this collection. Tickets: $8.50
Special rates available for groups of 20 or more. Please call (416)
979-6660 x461 or 1-888-225-4246 x461.
