Cuba! Art and History from 1868 to the Present Day, an exhibition in the Groninger Museum

Cuba! Art and History from 1868 to the Present Day, in the Groninger Museum

The exhibition from May 17th  until September 20th 2009 is organised by the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts in cooperation with the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes and the Fototeca de Cuba from Havana.

 

See the photos for an impression of this exhibition.

Besides the exhibition the building of the museum itself, designed by the Italian Alessandro Mendini,  is very much worth visiting. For more information see: www.groningermuseum.nl

 

Besides visiting the exhibition I walked through the historic city centre of Groningen, passing by the Martini church and tower and visiting the garden of the “Prinsenhof”, originally a monastery (15th century), a very nice Renaissance garden with a beautiful sun-dial.
