’The Sacred Spaces of Pieter Saenredam’ |
|
|
|
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.- The Getty Research Institute presents “The Sacred Spaces of Pieter Saenredam,” on view through July 7, 2002. Pieter Saenredam (1597-1665) was one of the magical painters of 17th-century Holland, a time known as the ’Golden Age’ of Dutch Art. He spent his career immortalizing the churches of Holland in drawings and paintings. Working through a series of perspective drawings to the finished painting, he made innumerable fine adjustments to architectural details to create what may be justly called spaces of wondrous perfection of proportion and luminosity. The Getty hosts the only American venue of the most comprehensive exhibition of Saenredam’s work of the past forty years. It brings together over forty preparatory drawings and a collection of paintings depicting the beautiful and historically venerable churches of the ancient Dutch city of Utrecht.
