Murillo meets Monet
Multiple dates
With his exhibition project ‘Collective Osmosis,’ Colombian-born artist Oscar Murillo brings the imagery of French Impressionist Claude Monet into a contemporary dialogue.
In installations and paintings, Murillo takes up shifts in light, colour and space and translates them into his own artistic language. Like Monet, he examines perception as something processual. At the same time, he broadens the view: while Monet painted nature as an atmospheric space of experience, Murillo questions it in the context of power, history and global interconnections.
The exhibition marks the first collaboration between MINSK and the Museum Barberini. Works by Oscar Murillo are on display in both venues. The combined tour of both venues connects the two parts of the exhibition.
The tours focus on Murillo's artistic strategies, his multi-layered interpretation of Monet, and the question of how Impressionist imagery can be reimagined and repositioned in the 21st century.
