Exhibition's album "Egypt. Everlasting passion"

BESCHRIJVING

Exhibition from 2024.09.24 to 2023.04.16

Are we fascinated by Egypt or do we have a passion for the country ? Most certainly both ! Why would people decide to decorate the entire façade of their houses with Egyptian motifs or fill the interiors with objects referencing the land of the Pharaohs ? Why would you have an Egyptian motif tattooed indelibly on your skin ? This, sometimes all-consuming, passion is found in many shapes and forms. 

Ancient Egypt has always fired our imagination ! It is present everywhere, from museum works to children's toys, public fountains to interior decor, collections of antiquities to comic strips, travel stories to keepsake photos, artistic creations to celebrity magazine, ...

This album takes you on a journey through four "eras" : of the gods, the scholars, the passions, and the icons. Intermingled, and not necessarily in date order, they take you from ancient times to the present day. Explore this Egyptomania that is foremost on our minds and discover that it is both timeless and everlasting.
