Summary
What did "the good life" mean in the 17th century Netherlands? What meanings did people attach to food, flowers and everyday objects? The exhibition explores the concept of the good life from different points of view such as morality, abundance and transience. Individual objects and topics have the potential to symbolise the values and ideas of an entire culture, religion or society. Many of the themes still remain valid to this day. Among others, material abundance and access to food are themes that remain highly relevant to this day. The exhibition comprises some 50 still lifes from the Netherlands, Italy and Spain, dating back to the 16th?18th centuries. The exhibition also includes contemporary works of art that comment the current themes. Exhibition: Sinebrychoff Art Museum, Helsinki, Finland (29 September - 31 December 2016).
