Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen presents Contemporary Surrealist Drawings in Paris

The Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen presents Contemporary Surrealist Drawings in Paris, on view at the Institut Néerlandais, Paris , 1 March–13 May 2012 a selection of more than seventy contemporary drawings by seventeen artists from Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen’s collection.

Over the years the museum has built up an international collection with work by supreme draughtsmen like Ewoud van Rijn, Paul van der Eerden, Peter Feiler, Oscar de las Flores, Charles Avery, Paul Noble and Charlie Roberts—work that is the product of a specific or fantastic world view and in some cases can even be regarded as a form of automatic imagination. This surrealist quality predominates in the selection. Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is continuing the tradition of collecting works by artists like Dalí, Magritte, Delvaux, Tanguy and Zurn.
