14-18. Rupture or Continuity?
The exhibition 14-18. Rupture or Continuity? (from September 29th 2016 to January 22nd 2017) delves into the vast collection of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium and explores changes and constants of Belgian Art between 1910-1925. Artists and artistic movements with a significant influence, like Constant Permeke’s Expressionism, Jules Schmalzigaug’s Futurism, or even Jozef Peeters’ Pure Plastic, are shown side by side in this display, immersing the visitor in an era of artistic and political upheaval.
Digital Experience, the brand new multimedia cylinder, provides an interactive context for the works of art on display. The innovating device offers a global vision of Belgian artistic creation in the days of World War I, via historic documents, videos, audio recordings and artwork reproductions.
Two tracks present the main works of this period. A timeline was realised by the team of cultural mediation of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium (EDUCATEAM). The set was accompanied by a soundtrack for a complete immersion of the visitor in the digital device.
