Art and Heritage in Central Europe<\/h1>

On June 23, 2023 Slovak National Gallery in Bratislava opened two ongoing collection displays:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. “Sacred Art” – presenting the most precious sacred paintings and sculptures from the Gothic and Baroque eras in the SNG\u2019s collections, complemented with icons and paintings from European art of the 16th to the 19th century. Although the SNG, among Slovak public institutions, owns what is probably the richest fund of sacred art, its focus on Christian paintings and sculptures somewhat distorts the overall view. They are therefore planning for the exposition to receive regular infusions of cultic objects of other major religious cultures. Likewise, over a briefer time span you will have an opportunity also to see drawings, graphic works and photographs, which are more sensitive to long-term exhibition.\n

      \n
    1. “The Modern” – telling the story of visual art in Slovakia in the first half of the 20th century. Our selection of works for it centred on the most important developments in domestic art between 1890\/1900 and 1948. In experiencing this exposition of iconic works, drawn mostly from SNG collections, you can take in the comprehensive whole or focus on individual pieces. It includes paintings, sculptures, prints, and photographs, alongside films and installations. Among its features is \u201cnon-permanent\u201d exposition: changing exhibits presented every year \u2013 the current theme is transformations in landscape painting, titled Land of the Eye \u00d7 Land of the Soul. The exhibited works are arranged in two parallel lines visually, semantically, and pictorially, subtitled Myth \u00d7 Civilization \u01c0 Dream \u00d7 Reality. This departure from traditional authoritative, chronological, or stylistic approaches to the modern tells the story from a different angle. These two lines are dynamic rather than absolute, interweaving and underlying one another. Symbolically, they come together in a \u201csanctuary\u201d \u2013 the exposition\u2019s epicentre, with works by top representatives of the modern: those who kept pace with the European avant-garde, combining in their work both traditional and innovative elements of expression. These integrated the proverbial \u201chome and abroad\u201d.
