In this publication, Ellen Harvey restores the ties between the city of Bruges and the harbor. In a new installation, behind a mirrored wall punctuated with peepholes, Harvey has hung a selection of paintings dating from the seventeenth- to the early twentieth-century, all of which belong to the reserve collection. Her work is an invitation to rediscover these rarely seen artworks. The paintings of the city, the canals, and the sea are reflected in the panorama on the opposite wall: Harvey's painted maps (2.75 x 21 meter) based on satellite images. The elaborate waterways, executed in mirrored glass, demonstrate the importance of the rivers and canals for the city. Text in English and Dutch.
Andr Beauneveu has long been known as one of the greatest European artists of the late 14th century. This book re-examines the oeuvre of the artist as first and foremost a master sculptor. Nash surveys the whole of his work including sculpture and stained glass originally for Jean, duc de Berry's chapel at Bourges. This is an important revisionary contribution to the study of late medieval art and the practice of its workshops. Susie Nash is a senior lecturer at the Courtauld Institute of Art.
