In the mood of summer flower magic, the Museum of the Riga Municipal Association of Cultural Institutions "Riga Art Nouveau Centre" is presenting a variety of elegant and colourful flowers depicted in early 20th century glass, porcelain and textile applied art works, as well as in paintings of Latvian artists.

The poppy is one of the most beautiful flowers of the summer, which has been appreciated by many artists, especially during the Art Nouveau period, as can be seen in this exhibition, showing about 200 artworks.

This major exhibition offers a unique insight into Rodin's processes, highlighting the crucial role of plaster in his practice. The exhibition evokes the informal atmosphere of the studio, where you will discover lesser-known pieces and new aspects of his most iconic works.

2 artists, 2 museums, 1 exhibition.

The exhibition proposes a new comparative view of the works of Rodin (1840-1917) and Picasso (1881-1973), who each had a profound and lasting impact on the art of their time and that of the generations to come. The exhibition does not aim to show what Picasso borrowed from Rodin, but rather to explore how elements of Rodin's oeuvre merged with periods in Picasso's artistic career.

Mucha Trust Collection celebrates the first major U.S. tour in 20 years. The exhibition is featuring a vast array of posters, illustrations, ornamental objects, and rarely seen sculpture, photographs, and self-portraits. Additional works from the NCMA's collection highlight the American interpretation of the European aesthetics that influenced Mucha as well as his close friendship with French sculptor Auguste Rodin.

The Mathildenhoehe Institute will celebrate the 150th birthday of Albin Müller (1871-1941) with the exhibition "Albin Müller: Architect, Designer and Teacher ". The show will emphasize Müller's professions as architect- designer and teacher in the years 1900 to 1914.

Muller's 150th birthday coincides with this year's recognition of Mathildenhoehe Darmstadt as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

As a central source of inspiration, the Mathildenhoehe Darmstadt offered Müller unique opportunities to create buildings and spatial art from 1906 onwards. With a further focus on Magdeburg, the exhibition will highlight another city where the artist achieved great success as a teacher at the School of Arts from 1900 to 1906, and as a designer for various companies.

Albin Müller established a productive exchange with colleagues such as Fritz von Heider, as well as former members of the Darmstadt Artists' Colony: Peter Behrens and Paul Bürck. The strong links between the cities of Darmstadt and Magdeburg as German centres of the reform movement are manifested.

"Young Poland: An Arts and Crafts Movement (1890 - 1918)" is the first major exhibition to explore the decorative arts and architecture of Young Poland (Mloda Polska), an extraordinary cultural movement that flourished in response to Poland's invasion and occupation by foreign powers.

The presentation is organised in partnership with the National Museum in Kraków and the Polish Cultural Institute, London. Co-financed by the Polish Minister of Culture, National Heritage and Sport.

The last female portrait by Vienna's iconic painter, Gustav Klimt's Lady with Fan gazes seductively and with remarkable self-confidence into the distance.

The exhibition has been exextended until 20 february 2022!

The Jugendstilforum in Bad Nauheim opens its doors to the public with an exhibition devoted to ceramics.

Among the everyday objects produced by the Jugendstil, ceramics were of particular importance, as they could be produced cheaply and in series. Many people could afford them, and so the new Jugendstil ideas of form and decoration spread, especially with this material, which is the focus of this first exhibition.

The exhibition creates an opulent tableau that offers uniquely rich and complex insights into the fascination of Vienna circa 1900 and the atmosphere of this vibrant period. Comprising some 1,300 items displayed across three floors, this semi-permanent installation presents the splendour and wealth of the artistic and intellectual achievements of this era through masterpieces from the Leopold Museum and notable permanent loan works from Austrian and international collections.
