EXHIBITIONS

Study of a Mourning Woman, about 1500–05, Michelangelo Buonarroti. Pen and brown ink, heightened with white lead opaque watercolor. The J. Paul Getty Museum

Initial Q: Two Soldiers Leading Two Moors before a King (detail), about 1290–1310. Illuminator unknown; scribe, Michael Lupi de Çandiu. Tempera colors, gold leaf, and ink on parchment. The J. Paul Getty Museum, Ms. Ludwig XIV 6 (83.MQ.165)

OPENING AT THE GETTY CENTER

Pastels in Pieces European paper was not manufactured in giant sheets until the 19th century. Competing with painters who worked on monumental canvases, 18th-century pastellists joined together multiple sheets of paper to create large, continuous surfaces. The piecing together of pastels also served other purposes, allowing artists to paper over their mistakes or paste the heads of important sitters onto the bodies of models. Matching each exhibited pastel with a map of its component sheets, this installation encourages visitors to consider how these objects were made.

January 16–July 29, 2018Museum, South Pavilion

Michelangelo to Degas: Major New AcquisitionsThe Museum recently made one of the most spectacular acquisitions in its history, purchasing a collection of 16 drawings from a private collector. The group features exceptional sheets by many of the most celebrated draftsmen in European art history, including Michelangelo, Andrea del Sarto, Domenico Tiepolo, Goya, and Degas. This exhibition presents the drawings together with an exquisite painting by Antoine Watteau, La Surprise, acquired from the same celebrated collection.

January 17–April 22, 2018Museum, North Pavilion

A Queen’s Treasure from Versailles: Marie-Antoinette’s Japanese LacquerA Queen’s Treasure from Versailles presents precious examples of Japanese lacquer from the private collection of the French queen Marie-Antoinette (1755–1793). Her collection of small lacquer boxes was one of the finest assembled in Europe, and she considered it to be among her most cherished possessions. The elaborate and costly works reveal a fascinating aspect of the queen’s personal taste and demonstrate the consistently high level of achievement attained by Japanese lacquer artists during the mid-Edo period (about 1681–1764) when these pieces were created.

January 23, 2018–January 6, 2019Museum, South Pavilion

Outcasts: Prejudice and Persecution in the Medieval World Medieval manuscripts preserve stories of faith, romance, and knowledge, but their luxurious illuminations can reveal hidden prejudices as well. Often created for the privileged classes, such books nevertheless provide glimpses of the marginalized and powerless and reflect their tenuous places in society. Attitudes toward women, Jews and Muslims, the poor, those perceived as socially divergent, and foreign peoples beyond European borders can be discerned through caricature and polemical imagery as well as marks of erasure and censorship.

Harald Szeemann: Museum of Obsessions Drawn from materials in the Harald Szeemann archive at the Getty Research Institute, Harald Szeemann: Museum of Obsessions explores the life and career of the quintessential exhibition maker—from his groundbreaking involvement with the avant-garde movements of the 1960s and 1970s, to his global contemporary exhibitions of the 1990s and 2000s, to his personal reading of early 20th-century modernism. The exhibition is structured as a surprising series of thematic interests: avant-gardes, utopias and visionaries, geographies, and grandfathers.

Harald Szeemann: Museum of Obsessions features a satellite presentation, Grandfather: A Pioneer Like Us, on view at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (ICA LA) from February 4 to April 22, 2018. www.theicala.org

February 6–May 6, 2018Research Institute Galleries

Paper Promises: Early American Photography Paper Promises traces mid-19th-century experimentation with and exploitation of photography on paper. Rare photographs and negatives are featured alongside iconic images from the formative years of photography in the United States. The exhibition demonstrates the importance of photographic reproduction in shaping and circulating perceptions of America and its people during a critical period of political tension and territorial expansion.

Cut! Paper Play in Contemporary Photography Interaction with paper plays an integral role in the practice of many photographers working today. Some create paper models with images gleaned from current events, popular magazines, or the internet for the express purpose of photographing them. Others cut, layer, fold, or assemble representational photographs to introduce tactile or narrative elements. The exhibition features works by Thomas Demand, Christiane Feser, Daniel Gordon, Soo Kim, Matt Lipps, and Christopher Russell.

February 27–May 27, 2018Museum, Center for Photographs, West Pavilion

Rembrandt and the Inspiration of IndiaOne of the most intriguing series in Rembrandt’s oeuvre comprises his drawings made in the style of artists serving the Mughal court in India. Juxtaposing Rembrandt’s depictions of Mughal rulers and courtiers with Indian paintings and drawings of similar compositions, this exhibition reveals how contact with Mughal art inspired Rembrandt to draw in an entirely different, refined style prompted by his curiosity for a foreign culture.

March 13–June 24, 2018Museum, West Pavilion

Beyond the Nile: Egypt and the Classical World This major international loan exhibition explores the artistic interplay between the three great cultures of Egypt, Greece, and Rome from about 2000 BC to AD 300. Highlights include finely crafted vessels sent by the pharaohs to Crete and Mycenae, Egyptian statues that served as inspiration for the first Greek sculptors, striking portraits in both Egyptian and Greek style, and luxurious decorative objects made for wealthy Romans obsessed with all things Egyptian.

Is Los Angeles Part of Latin America? As Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA, the unprecedented exploration of Latin American and Latino Art in Los Angeles, draws to a close, this panel asks: How Latin American is L.A., really?

Gregory Rodriguez of Zócalo Public Square moderates this panel with comedian and art collector Cheech Marin, Univision anchorperson León Krauze, and New York Times national correspondent Jennifer Medina.

Beyond the Ordinary: A Conversation with Three Conceptual Artists from ArgentinaAmid a tense political climate in the 1960s and the 1970s, the art scene in Argentina fostered a radical break with traditional forms, giving rise to conceptual practices. The unconventional artistic production of this period often involved the employment of photography in highly experimental ways. Three of the leading artists of this period—Carlos Ginzburg, Luis Pazos, and Leandro Katz—discuss their work and their experiences with curator Idurre Alonso.

While many historians are skeptical given Rome’s history of conquest, slavery, and autocratic rule, classicist Joy Connolly suggests that the Roman example paves the way toward lively civil discourse on hot-button issues. Connolly proposes that Roman thinkers, especially Cicero, can help us better understand our political values and talk with one another across personal affiliations.

India through a European Lens: Seventeenth-Century Images and WordsSanjay Subrahmanyam, distinguished professor of history at UCLA, examines the perception of India in 17th-century western Europe, as mediated through images (prints, miniatures, etc), as well as by words, especially those of travelers, traders, and missionaries.

In Conversation: Carolee Schneemann on Her Art and ArchiveCarolee Schneemann, awarded the 2016 Venice Biennale’s Golden Lion for her lifetime achievement, is among the pioneers of 1960s feminist art. Her paintings, videos, photography, and most notably her performances introduce the female body as the principal medium in challenging the definition of art, especially in regard to sexuality and gender. In discussion with art historian Anja Foerschner, Schneemann addresses the practical and aesthetic aspects of her archive, which is housed at the Institute.
