Massacre and Saint Matthew at the Rubens House























Das kulturelle Stadtfestival „Antwerp Baroque 2018. Rubens inspires” bringt eine Ode an Peter Paul Rubens und sein barockes, kulturelles Vermächtnis. Auf dem Festival wird Peter Paul Rubens - einer der einflussreichsten Künstler aller Zeiten und der berühmteste Einwohner der Stadt Antwerpen - ins Rampenlicht gerückt. Er verkörpert den Barock wie kein zweiter und ist nicht nur eine wichtige Quelle der Inspiration für zeitgenössische Künstler, sondern auch für den atypischen Lebensstil der Stadt Antwerpen und ihrer Einwohner. Das Festival „Antwerp Baroque 2018. Rubens inspires” erzählt eine Geschichte über den Barock früher und heute und stellt einen Dialog zwischen dem historischen Barock und der zeitgenössischen Kunst her. Die Stadt und die Welt dienen dabei als Kulisse. „Antwerp Baroque 2018. Rubens inspires” ist eine Schlüsselveranstaltung im Rahmen des Programms „Flämische Meister” von Tourismus Flandern. Das ausgesprochen extrovertierte Festival wird künstlerischen Eigensinn mit authentischer Gastfreundlichkeit verbinden. Von Juni 2018 bis Januar 2019 in Antwerpen.
