Marina Abramović, Frans Hals, Peter Paul Rubens
This week: three big London shows, in depth. As Marina Abramović draws huge crowds to the Royal Academy of Arts in London, we interview her about the exhibitionthe first ever dedicated to a woman artist in the Royal Academys main galleries. At the National Gallery, meanwhile, is a remarkable survey of the paintings of the 17thcentury Dutch master Frans Hals, which will tour next year to Amsterdam and Berlin. We take a tour with Bart Cornelis, curator of the Nationals incarnation of the show. And this episodes Work of the Week is Peter Paul Rubenss Three Nymphs with a Cornucopia of around 1625 to 1628 (painted with Frans Snyders). In the collection of the Prado in Madrid, it is one of a number of major loans to the exhibition Rubens and Women at the Dulwich Picture Gallery in London. Amy Orrock, one of the curators of the exhibition, tells us more. Marina Abramović, Royal Academy of Arts, London, until 1 January 2024.
