The conference  will explore Ruskin's interactions with, influence on, and legacy for the museum world and art education.

The exhibition highlights the influence of Antoni Gaudí on Miró's production through a group of prints titled Gaudí Series, comprising twenty-one pieces in a variety of sizes and featuring fantastic characters with which the artist paid tribute to the architect in the mid-1960s. Miró was particularly drawn to the rhythm and structure of Gaudí's work; he shared his urge to question the use of existing procedures and materials as well as a deep bond with nature, the generating force behind his creations. The treatment of colour and the use of curved lines in these prints are reminiscent of the trencadís broken-tile mosaic technique, a hallmark of Gaudí's work.

The exhibition aims to recover the work of a Catalan painter who in his lifetime was very successful, but who with the inexorable passage of time has been forgotten by the different generations of historiographers.
The installation focuses on the work of the sculptor and painter Antoni Fabrés i Costa (1854 - 1938), who at the age of 25, while a student at the Llotja School in Barcelona, was awarded a grant to go to Rome, the city that was then the natural destination for outstanding artists. After he arrived there, in 1875, a year after the death of Marià Fortuny, Fabrés devoted himself to drawing, painting and watercolour, three techniques that he mastered like none other in his day.

The exhibition traces the life and work of the Swiss painter, Félix Vallatton (1865-1925), who became one of the greatest printmakers of his age in the UK's first major survey.
Through more than 80 paintings and exquisite prints, this exhibition reveals Vallotton's extraordinary body of work, including compelling portraits, dreamlike landscapes and satirical prints distilled into pure blocks of black and white.

To commemorate the centenary of the founding of the Bauhaus, the Institut Mathildenhöhe is presenting the exhibition that will shed light on the importance of the Bauhaus and post-World War II architecture. The exhibition in 1901 by the Darmstadt Artists' Colony was the very first permanent exhibition of modern architecture in the world and it has influenced many exhibitions and urban planning projects ever since. It was mainly the colony members Joseph Maria Olbrich and Peter Behrens who presented new ideas in Darmstadt through their future-oriented architecture and holistic design and these were further developed by the Werkbund, which both of them co-founded, and ultimately by the Bauhaus. It is no coincidence that Bauhaus directors Walter Gropius and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe both worked in the studio of Peter Behrens very early in their careers and witnessed how the architect fused handicraft, creative design and large-scale manufacturing. After 1945, the heritage of the Darmstadt Artist's Colony inspired the war-torn city to rebuild itself as a centre of modern architecture and design and these endeavours led to the construction of several "Meisterbauten" (Masterful Architectonic Creations) designed by such renowned architects as Max Taut, Otto Bartning and Ernst Neufert.

This installation is the first retrospective on the European continent of the Norwegian painter Harald Sohlberg (1869-1935) in honour of the artist's 150th birthday. Sohlberg, who was a contemporary and friend of Edvard Munch (1863-1944), is best known for his major work Winter Night in Rondane, produced between 1899 and 1914. The painting still captures the soul of the Norwegians today and was voted the most popular painting in the country by citizens in the 1990s. This icon of Norwegian art, which has never been on loan since it was acquired in 1918 by the National Museum in Oslo, will be on show in Wiesbaden.

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of Otto Prutscher's death, the exhibition highlights the importance of his work for the development of Viennese Modernism. The show is dedicated to Josef Hoffmann's (1870-1956) in association with Otto Prutscher (1880-1949). Like Hoffmann an architect and designer, Prutscher was master of all materials used in the applied arts. He was an exhibition designer, a teacher, and a member of the most important reform movements in art from the Secession to the Wiener Werkstätte and the Werkbund.

Helene Schjerfbeck (1862-1946) is a Finnish national icon. From her early naturalistic style - honed during her studies in France - to her highly abstracted self-portraits, this exhibition will present Schjerfbeck for the first time to UK audiences.

Projected on all the surface of the Atelier des Lumières, the new digital exhibition immerses visitors in the paintings of Vincent van Gogh. This new visual and musical production retraces the intense life of the artist, who, during the last ten years of his life, painted more than 2,000 pictures, which are now in collections around the world.

The touring exhibition "Blue. The Colour of Art Nouveau" aims to explore the spirit of a period in which blue was a predominant thread. In the late nineteenth century, relating landscapes and the phenomena of nature to moods, so as to transmit the soul's hues and tonalities, ended up constituting a poetological aesthetic that became inscribed within the great movement of modernity, moving through Symbolism and witnessing the birth of the cinematograph.

Travelling exhibition "Charles Rennie Mackintosh: Making the Glasgow Style" will be the first exhibition in the United States not only to showcase the seminal work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928) but to locate his production in relation to the larger circle of designers and craftspeople with which he shared sources, stylistic features, and patrons.

By showcasing posters and paintings, sculptures, furniture and ceramics, the exhibition underscores the extraordinary artistic and artisanal blossoming that swept over and ultimately overhauled decorative taste at the beginning of the twentieth century.
