The Stedelijk unveils the final section of the new collection presentation, Yesterday Today, about art and design from around 1880 to 1950. With over 300 works, the exhibition shows how a single art history does not exist, but rather it encompasses many perspectives. Well-known artistic movements are discussed, such as the Amsterdam School, Functionalism, De Stijl, Bauhaus, CoBrA and the avant-garde around Kazimir Malevich and Olga Rozanova. By showing well-known works together with lesser-known highlights, other stories can rise to the surface.
Like the previous two parts, Yesterday Today shows that art and design are closely linked to social developments. This presentation pays extra attention to female makers and mediators.
