- Text in English and Dutch
What happens when the new masters pick up where the old masters left off? On the occasion of the bicentenary of the Mauritshuis in The Hague, the museum asked contemporary photographers to reflect on the permanent collection. Which masters capture their imagination? How do they interpret 17th-century art?
The result: 16 new works by 16 contemporary photographs, including Erwin Olaf, Rineke Dijkstra, Anton Corbijn and Stephan Vanfleteren, one for each room in the Mauritshuis. The new works will be displayed alongside the 17th-century works that inspired them, and will be put equally next to each other in this luxury book.
The photographers were entirely free to select what they wanted to work with. For some it was a painting, for another a detail from a painting, or even an entire room in the museum. Expect to see original and surprising reflections on 17th-century art: counterparts, commentaries, alternatives. None of the photographs is a remake of the original painting. One thing is certain: you will never look at Rembrandt, Vermeer or Steen in the same way.

From the Back Cover
Naar aanleiding van de 200ste verjaardag van het Mauritshuis Den Haag vroeg het museum aan zestien Nederlandse topfotografen om te reflecteren op hun wereldcollectie en gebouw.
Geen remake van een bestaand schilderij, maar conceptueel nieuw werk: waar voelt de fotograaf een link met wat hij ziet, hoe interpreteert hij die 17de-eeuwse kunst, de maatschappelijke en inhoudelijke lading in het werk, hoe resoneert dat en wat doet dat weer met ons brein?
De schilderijen van Remrandt, Vermeer, Van der Weyden e.a. zijn honderden jaren op talloze plekken door duizenden ogen bekeken. Hoe kijken de werken terug naar ons? Wat zagen we eerder niet en wat zien wij niet maar de fotografen wel? Kunnen we kunst écht tot ons door kunnen laten dringen en zo ja, hoe?
Met werk van onder meer Rineke Dijkstra, Desirée Dolron, Dustin Thierry, Erwin Olaf, Stephan Vanfleteren, Anton Corbijn en Viviane Sassen.
