Renewed Past – Evert Nijland

The exhibition Renewed Past in CODA Museum shows how themes, visual language and techniques from the past play a new, relevant role in contemporary art. An important part of this exhibition is an overview of jewellery made by Evert Nijland. CODA Museum presents Nijland’s work combined with his broad selection of contemporary art by visual artists who, each in their own way, work with elements and symbolism from western (art) history and/or historical techniques and crafts. The exhibition offers a broad spectrum of interpretations and perspectives, making no distinction between autonomous and applied art.
