Etienne Bosch, “Un peintre de mérite, trop modeste” wrote the French poet Paul Verlaine about Etienne Bosch. Perhaps he was indeed too modest, as this remarkable artist is somehow unknown today. It is time to change that.
At Pygmalion, we are proud to present a retrospective exhibition of Etienne Bosch, an artist who chose his own path at the turn of the twentieth century. While many of his contemporaries looked to Paris for inspiration, Bosch found his in the evocative atmosphere of Italian cities and landscapes. His work is poetic, atmospheric, and surprisingly contemporary.
The exhibition has been co-curated by Femke van Ette, our intern and a distant descendant of the artist.
Come and discover the work of an artist who deserves to be seen again.
From 14 till 28 of June, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 1-5 pm
