Schön & streng: Die Macht des Ornaments

StartOct 11, 2026
EndFeb 14, 2027
CategoryPainting
In the Von der Heydt Museum in Wuppertal, the exhibition Schön & rigorously: The power of ornament is dedicated to ornament as an artistic principle. It shows how patterns in painting can not only decorate, but also arrange images, create tension and shift meanings. The view extends from Henri Matisse to the present day and asks about the role of forms that migrate, change and make cultural connections visible. Between abstraction and social reading, this creates a precise, historically open access to the ornament.
