 Caravaggio | Match-ups of artistic giants have long been a popular theme for major museum shows. Recent years have seen a string of such exhibits, pairing off such artists as Matisse and Picasso, Van Gogh and Gauguin, and Pissarro and Cezanne. The city of Amsterdam is hosting the latest such blockbuster, a side-by-side showing of the works of the 17th Century’s greatest superstars, Rembrandt and Caravaggio. KUOW art critic Gary Faigin has just returned from attending the exhibit, and he found an interesting link to the work of some local artists in what he saw at the show. |
