Amsterdam's Rijksmuseum's major Vermeer exhibition comes to the cinema

It was the largest Vermeer retrospective in history. In fact, the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam hosted an exhibition dedicated to the author of the famous Girl with a Pearl Earring until last June 4, which sold out immediately and recorded 650,000 visitors.

Now the exhibition comes to the cinema: on October 2, 3, 4 (theater list soon on nexodigital.it) VERMEER. THE GREATEST EXHIBITION, the documentary film that has already won over British audiences by grossing nearly $2 million at the box office.

Called a momentous retrospective by the trade press, the exhibition is the largest ever devoted exclusively to the “master of light,” featuring twenty-eight of his thirty-five known works from countries around the world. Never before have so many of Vermeer’s masterpieces been brought together in one place. VERMEER. THE GREATEST EXHIBITION is directed by director David Bickerstaff and offers art lovers the chance to view Vermeer’s masterpieces on the big screen, including The Girl in the Turban, The Geographer, The Milkmaid, and the recently restored Woman Reading a Letter in Front of the Window. In addition to a unique encounter with the works of the great seventeenth-century artist, the docufilm reveals the insights of the team behind the exhibition, world-renowned curators and Vermeer experts, shedding new light on the painter’s mysterious life and masterful work, his artistic choices and the motivations behind his compositions, as well as the creative process behind his paintings.

Great Art at the Movies is an original and exclusive project of Nexo Digital.
