'Seeing Is Believing: The Art and Influence of Gérôme' unfolds across three separate yet interconnected sections, each one presenting, questioning or reevaluating Gérôme’s artistic output through different perspectives, artistic mediums and points in time.
The exhibition is organised by the future Lusail Museum in collaboration with Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art, which will host the presentation. Nearly 400 works will be on display at the exhibition, drawing extensively from the future Lusail Museum’s unparalleled collection of Orientalist art, including European depictions of the MENASA region from the 16th to the 19th century.
The exhibition also includes significant loans from Qatar Museums’ General Collections and prestigious institutions worldwide such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Islamic Arts Museum, Malaysia. Read more.
