    • In the Age of Rembrandt: Dutch Paintings from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston


      • (Above Image: Jan Havicksz. Steen, An Elegant Company Playing Cards, about 1660. Oil on panel. 45.7 x 60.3 cm. Promised gift of Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo, in support of the Center for Netherlandish Art. Courtesy, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.)

        Discover the Dutch Golden Age with an exceptional collection of 70 powerful paintings, including works from world-renowned artists Rembrandt, Frans Hals, Jan Steen, and Jacob van Ruisdael. From detailed still lifes, humorous genre scenes and striking portraits to impressive landscapes, cityscapes, and architectural paintings, In the Age of Rembrandt presents artworks that capture life in the Dutch Republic.


        (Jan Davidsz. de Heem, Glass Vase with Flowers on a Stone Ledge, 1655–60. Oil on panel. 47.3 x 35.6 cm. Promised gift of Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo, in support of the Center for Netherlandish Art. Courtesy, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.)

        Featuring works from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, this exhibition offers a fascinating overview of 17th century Dutch painting; where new subjects and styles redefined traditional genres. After gaining independence from Catholic Spain in 1585, the Protestant self-ruling Dutch Republic was established. What followed has since been dubbed the Golden Age, with the Netherlands emerging as a center of global trade and an economic world power. This vibrant economy gave rise to a prosperous middle class, whose desire for paintings fueled a rapidly expanding art market. In addition to portraying traditional religious and mythological scenes, Dutch artists also began depicting ordinary people, local landscapes and cities, and other secular subjects. The artists’ experiments with perspective, optics and science, and their careful observation of the world around them generated some of the most realistic and lifelike paintings to date.


        (Hendrick Avercamp, Winter Landscape near a Village, about 1610–15. Oil on panel. 53.3 x 94.6 cm. Promised gift of Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo, in support of the Center for Netherlandish Art. Courtesy, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.)

        It has been more than 20 years since an exhibition of this calibre on painting in the Dutch Golden Age—one of the most significant periods of artistic production in history— has been shown in Toronto. In the Age of Rembrandt reflects the ROM’s renewed commitment to presenting the finest works of art and culture, and draws attention to the Museum’s own European decorative arts collection, widely recognized as one of the best in North America.

        Exhibition organized by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

        – Exhibition On Now until September 15, 2019

    • THE BLACK DRUM

      • CANADA 2019 WORLD PREMIERE
        June 15-29
        Soulpepper is pleased to partner with the DEAF CULTURE CENTRE on this extraordinary, signed music musical to elevate the Deaf community’s “place” in the Canadian arts landscape.

        A young woman’s life is turned upside down when her tattoos come alive and propel her on a fantastical journey in search of her own inner voice.

        Faces, hands, and movements are our poetry. In The Black Drum, by Deaf Canadian playwright Adam Pottle, Deaf actors tell their story through physical theatre, signed music, projection, and dance while motion capture enhances their graceful rhythms. Audiences are invited to experience this pioneering new work unlike any other.

        Note: Voice interpretation will be provided for all non-ASL patrons
