Exhibition Breda’s Museum: Isabelle de Borchgrave – free entrance tickets

For the upcoming edition ART BREDA has collaborated with Breda’s Museum, which hosts an exhibition from 8 March to 15 June in which antique and contemporary art come together in a fairytale manner.

She creates costumes, completely executed in paper and painted by hand. From 8 March 2014 onwards Breda will show a special collection of Medici costumes.

Isabelle de Borchgrave hasreconstructed the costumes according to Renaissance paintings. Viathe Medici collection, Isabelle de Borchgrave has shed light on well-known persons from the aristocratic bankers family from Florence. History, art and culture of the Renaissance and the mesmerizing beauty of the paper costumes form an unforgettable unity.

The fair ART BREDA will host a small exposition of Van Borchgrave’s Medici collection. The artist’s works of art greatly illustrate the state of mind of ART BREDA in which the past and the present, and antiques, old art and contemporary art do not contradict, but rather unite enjoyably.
