Princely Treasures. From the House of Liechtenstein

Special Exhibitions in Singapore 2013
Teilen
  • 27.6.2013 – 29.9.2013

    Singapore, National Museum

From June until September 2013, a total of 140 notable works of art from the collections of the Prince von und zu Liechtenstein will be on display in Singapore under the title “Masterworks from the Collections of the Prince of Liechtenstein”.

The focus will be on the concept of the Baroque ensemble. Central themes will include the idea of the Baroque salon and the “Kunstkammer,” the history of the Princely Family and the paintings of the Viennese Biedermeier period. Intensive restoration work has been carried out on a number of the works to be included in the exhibition, thus enabling them to be presented in the optimal way.

The visiting exhibition in Singapore will present an impressive selection from the Liechtenstein Collections in a compact display that is custom-tailored to the available gallery space.

For the first time in Singapore, the focus will be on the concept of the ensemble and not simply on the serial presentation of individual works of art. “Right from the start, the character of the Princely Collections has been defined by a deliberate combination of paintings, sculptures and crafts, including furniture” says Dr Johann Kräftner, Director of the Princely Collections, explaining the idea behind the show. The exhibition features a Baroque salon, decorated to resemble its historical model with ceiling frescoes, pictures on the walls, tapestries, furniture and sculptures. Paintings designed to adorn the ceilings of the Baroque Liechtenstein CITY PALACE in Vienna are also on display as they were originally intended – on the ceiling of a large exhibition space.

Other focal themes will explore the Princely Family and its estates, as well as the topic of the “Kunstkammer“ (princely cabinets of art and curiosities) and paintings of the Viennese Biedermeier period. Additional highlights will include a “Gallery of Masterpieces” and a dedicated “Rubens Room” showcasing works by the great Flemish master increasingly appreciated.
All in all a body of 140 works of art will be traveling to Singapore. Intensive restoration work has been carried out on a number of the works to be included in the exhibition, thus enabling them to be presented in the optimal way in Singapore.
