Tadelloser Zustand, frisches Exemplar. // A dream comes true: the Drents Museum and the Kunsthalle Emden bring famous American artists to Europe! The cross-border double exhibition is dedicated to American realism from 1945 to the present. The Drents Museum and the Kunsthalle Emden offer a fascinating insight into the `American way of life` with the theme figures, urban life, landscape, genre and stillness. This makes the exhibition more than just an art-historical overview. The works, which come from great American museums, company collections and private collections, will take you on a journey through the culture and history of the United States in the aftermath of the Second World War. Dream versus reality The Drents Museum in Assen focuses on the period from 1945 to 1965 during this double exhibition. After the World War, Europe was in ruins. America, on the other hand, was considered the land of unlimited possibilities, and the American Dream was the great ideal. Those who only work hard enough can achieve everything: a career from a washerman to a millionaire, the sky is the limit ! A promising motto, but in reality success and wealth have not been granted to everyone. /kunst laden ISBN: 9789462582194
