Pablo Bronstein and the Treasures of Chatsworth

4 Jul-20 Sep 2015

Nottingham Contemporary
Nottingham NG1 2GB

Overview

Works by Rembrandt and Franz Hals, Delft porcelain, the coronation chairs for William IV and Queen Adelaide, and a colossal Roman marble foot are among the objects that will appear within and alongside work by Pablo Bronstein, across all four of our galleries. Unusually for a contemporary artist, Bronstein's work is fascinated by pre-20th century European design and architecture. The overwhelming theatricality of the Baroque, is a particular favourite, and it’s a period that Chatsworth and much of its' collection epitomises.
