Dear visitors, It is with great pleasure that we present the Draiflessen’s programme for 2020. As in previous years, we’ve once again put together an eclectic and wide-ranging array of exhibitions, events, and educational offerings. Beginning in late March, we’ll be presenting “Hope”, the final exhibition in our trilogy, “Faith, Love, Hope”. Much like the first two exhibitions, “Faith” and “Love”, “Hope” brings together a very personal selection of twentieth- and twenty-first-century works of art that invite visitors to question and analyse the complexity, ambiguities, and possible contradictions of a concept that is as universal as it is individually and personally charged. Marcella Hansch, founder of the start-up Pacific Garbage Screening, will be bringing her own message of hope to Draiflessen. She and her interdisciplinary team are working on a solution to the problem of plastic waste in the world’s oceans. In April, she’ll present her vision to us in a Podium talk. The 2020 presentations in DAS Forum will continue to offer important glimpses into our archive and the work we are doing there. One such presen- tation, “Fashion Imagery – The 1920s in C&A Advertisements”, opens in May, and will feature examples of advertising art from our archive that convey the spirit and fashion of this fascinating decade. June will see the opening of “Seascapes”, one of the highlights of our show- case exhibition programme. A presentation of seventeenth-century paintings, drawings and prints from our collection, this show focuses on the sea – as a place longed for, but also as a place where the unbridled forces of nature hold sway. In the autumn, we’ll turn our attention to a question that is currently being dis- cussed on multiple levels: can an artist’s work be seen in complete isolation from the artist’s personality, from the person behind the work? The debate around
Emil Nolde – the myth surrounding his life and his person, and the recent dissolution and deconstruction of this myth – has been particularly emo- tional in this regard. For the exhibition “Emil Nolde – A Critical Approach by Mischa Kuball”, conceptual artist Mischa Kuball will take a look at Nol- de’s contradictory personality, at the discourse on mechanisms of art pro- duction and perception, and at the link between art and politics. There’s a whole lot more to discover at the Draiflessen Collection in 2020, as you will see. On this note – we are looking forward to an exciting and event- ful year and to many varied and vibrant exchanges with you! Yours sincerely, Corinna Otto, Director

LOVE Part 2 of the exhibition trilogy Faith, Love, Hope until 26 Jan. 2020 The second exhibition in the Faith, Love, Hope trilogy takes a look at the concept of love, portraying love not as ephemeral emotion or passionate feeling, but as a form of (special) social relationship and commitment, as a sign of quality in interpersonal relations. The exhibition presents a selection of modern and contemporary works of art that offer reflection on the po- tentialities, limits, and contradictions of human connectedness. Proceeding from their own personal experiences of love as well as their observations of people around them, the artists in this exhibition portray their struggle for harmony, their longing for protection, but also their encounters with feel- ings of suffocation and pain. A trilingual catalogue (German, English, Dutch) has been published in con- junction with the exhibition. 9
Michael Buthe, Hoffnung, 1982 10
HOPE Part 3 of the exhibition trilogy Faith, Love, Hope 22 Mar. to 21 June 2020 People have hope, cling to hope, lose hope, regain hope, or hopelessly de- spair. But what does hope mean? In the final part of our exhibition trilogy Faith, Love, Hope, the Draiflessen Collection will focus on the concept of hope as a principle of openness to possibilities that are in actuality not (yet) available. Works of art from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, in- cluding pieces by Michael Buthe, Duane Michals, and Fritz Winter, will highlight ambiguities and possible contradictions: is hope the confidence that “everything will go well”, or is it something closer to blind delusion? Is it invigorating and motivating, or might it not actually be paralysing? The works in this show will demonstrate that the process of hoping involves a shifting of the boundaries of knowledge, experience, and consciousness, that these boundaries can be transcended or completely dissolved. Via the medium of art, hope thus becomes an object of contemplation, self-inqui- ry, and discussion. A richly illustrated, trilingual catalogue (German, English, Dutch) will be published in conjunction with the exhibition. 11
Mischa Kuball, ... a critical approach!, 2019 12
EMIL NOLDE – A CRITICAL APPROACH BY MISCHA KUBALL 11 Oct. 2020 to 7 Feb. 2021 The way the Expressionist painter Emil Nolde (1867–1956) is perceived is shaped by past myth-creation and the present-day deconstruction of these myths, making Nolde a good example of just how era-dependent the ap- praisal of art is. In his installations, conceptual artist Mischa Kuball (b. 1959) shatters rigid interpretive models and lays bare the many-layered overlap- ping structures of the production and perception of art. Kuball’s scrutiny of Nolde as historical and highly contradictory figure opens up discursive spaces that go beyond the individual example of Nolde and promises a thrilling ex- amination of the mechanisms artists use to shape their public personas and of the relationship between art and politics. The exhibition will be accompanied by a trilingual publication (German, English, Dutch). 13
SHOWCASE EXHIBITIONS ’20
Jan van der Kooi, Veenhoop: Sun Reflects in the Water, 2012 16
ON THE ESSENCE OF LANDSCAPE until 16 Feb. 2020 How do you capture the soul of a landscape? This showcase exhibition pres- ents two artists determined to find an answer: Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn, who sought to capture the atmosphere, the uniqueness, of a particular stretch of land, and Frisian artist Jan van der Kooi (b. 1957), who uses tradi- tional working methods and drawing techniques to get at the inner being, the intrinsic power, of people, animals, and landscapes. Van der Kooi’s more than 150 sketchbooks are on view for the first time in this exhibition and are shown alongside a selection of Rembrandt’s land- scape etchings. The exhibition is accompanied by a trilingual publication (German, En- glish, Dutch). 17
Resurrection of the Dead and the Ascension of the Souls (fol. 205v), from: Book of Hours, text Dutch, Delft, c. 1480, and Leiden, c. 1490–1500 18
ON THE THIRD DAY ... 4 Mar. to 1 June 2020 Resurrection scenes – rendered in vivid colour, some with gold highlights – from books of hours and prayer books from a German private collection will be on display for this showcase exhibition. The medieval/early mod- ern conception of the resurrection of Christ and of the dead must be seen in conjunction with hope for the Kingdom of Heaven and fear of damnation, with both being dictated by one’s own life and its pleasingness to God. This conception finds reflection in thirteen manuscript pages, most of them from German-Dutch speaking regions and dating from the 1430s to the 1540s. 19
Hendrik Cornelisz. Vroom (1566–1640), Warships in Calm Waters, End 16th/ Beginning 17th Century 20
SEASCAPES 18 June to 18 Oct. 2020 The bellicose rivalry between the leading maritime powers of England, Spain, and the Netherlands for supremacy in overseas trade was accompa- nied in the seventeenth century by the emergence of an independent genre of art: the seascape. The genre covers a broad spectrum of subjects, ranging from faithfully rendered ship portraits, dramatic naval battles and fleet re- views to everyday waterscapes and coastal scenes populated with anony- mous boats to vistas that evoke the lure of the sea. Combining paintings, drawings, and prints from the Draiflessen’s collection, the “Seascapes” showcase exhibition will explore this fascination. The exhibition will be accompanied by a trilingual publication (German, English, Dutch). 21
Southern Netherlands (?), Baptism of Jesus, 1520–1525 22
PLAY OF LIGHT 4 Nov. 2020 to 28 Feb. 2021 The focus of this showcase exhibition is on the play of light and the intense luminosity of stained-glass painting – an art form that flourished during the late Gothic and Renaissance periods, especially in Germany, Switzer- land, and the Netherlands. It marks the first ever presentation of the Liberna Collection’s Kabinettscheiben (Kabinett = small room; Scheiben = glass panes), often the central panes of leaded windows, from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. While stained-glass windows, which often measure several metres in height, were and still are an integral feature of the public church space, the round, rectangular, or quatrefoil-shaped Kabinettschei- ben were more likely to be found ornamenting secular, private spaces. Pre- ferred subjects were moralising allegories or religious themes. Yet it is the translucent material and the way its appearance constantly changes with the light that continues to fascinate to this day and breathes life into the fig- ures and stories depicted. 23
DAS Forum ’20
Philips Galle (after Pieter Brueghel the Elder), Caritas (from the series: The Sev- en Virtues), c. 1559/60 26
SOCIAL COMMITMENT AND TRADITION until 16 Feb. 2020 This exhibition, on display in DAS Forum, focuses on the background and development of the Brenninkmeijer business family’s charitable activities and seeks to situate this work in its historical context. Leo Brenninkmeijer, grandson of one of the founders of C&A, was still a teenager when he first expressed his desire to become a priest. In 1900, he joined the Hiltrup missionaries. Photographs and letters document his work in Papua New Guinea and the support provided by the Brenninkmei- jer family and C&A. 27
Johannes Maria Schneider, “Onkel Canterbumm”, n. d. 28
PERSONAL FAVOURITES 4 Mar. to 3 May 2020 The Draiflessen’s storage facilities contain a vast number of items from the Draiflessen’s collection and archive – items that tell a particular story, fill in gaps, or represent an important discovery. For each instalment of “Per- sonal Favourites”, a series of intermittent presentations, selected treasures will be retrieved from storage, put on display, and their histories explained. This year, three colleagues from the Draiflessen’s archive and collection de- partments will present their favourite pieces: original drawings and cam- era-ready artwork from the estate of graphic artist and illustrator Johannes Maria Schneider. 29

FASHION IMAGERY – THE 1920s IN C&A ADVERTISEMENTS 13 May to 25 Oct. 2020 The fashion and spirit of the 1920s still fascinate, inspire, and capture imagi- nations today. As forms of mass media, magazines and newspapers dissemi- nated the newest trends in countless articles and advertisements. C&A used the latter to promote the latest in women’s, men’s, and children’s fashion. More than 2,500 adverts from this decade alone are preserved in the Drai- flessen Collection. They form the core of this presentation and chronicle the diverse range of changing styles – the drop waists, elaborate embroider- ies, sailor collars, lounge suits, and other trends. In addition, the advertise- ments afford insights into the production and supply of C&A clothing – and, with their allusions to the political, economic, and social developments of the time, offer a look at the 1920s that extends beyond the realm fashion. 31
32
DAS MEER RUFT (THE SEA CALLS) On the Unpredictability of Business Success 11 Nov. 2020 to 28 Feb. 2021 At first glance, the clothing trade and the film business do not seem to have much in common. In the 1920s, however, both sectors enjoyed an enormous upswing – and businessman Bernhard Joseph Brenninkmeijer, co-owner of C&A, spotted an investment opportunity: in 1932 he found- ed Eidophon, a film production company, and signed one of the most well- known actors of the Weimar period, Heinrich George. George would go on to appear in Eidophon’s feature film “Das Meer ruft”. The objects and doc- uments on display in this DAS Forum presentation – most of them from the Draiflessen Collection – paint a picture of an entrepreneur whose sound business acumen contributed to the lasting success of C&A, but whose at- tempt to build the Eidophon film company ultimately ended in failure. 33
EXCURSIONS ’20
Fully bo oked at press time! Excursion to Amsterdam EXPLORING REMBRANDT’S NEIGHBOURHOOD 14–15 Jan. 2020 This excursion includes a trip to the Rijksmuseum, where participants will not only enjoy a guided tour of the “Rembrandt–Velázquez” exhibition but also be treated to a once-in-a-lifetime glimpse behind the scenes of the largest art museum in the Netherlands: a visit to the museum’s conserva- tion studios. Then, as night falls, Amsterdam will transform into a verita- ble city of light: the Amsterdam Light Festival features spectacular works of light art made by contemporary artists from around the world – a guided walking tour will give participants an opportunity to marvel at the artists’ creations. On the second day of the excursion, Dr Hans Peterse will take the group to Amsterdam’s Jewish quarter to visit the Portuguese Synagogue and the Jewish Historical Museum. Participation fee; registration required 36
Excursion to Bonn LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN AND THE PRINCIPLE OF HOPE 17–19 Mar. 2020 “Hope sustains me, as it does half the world; through life she has been my close companion, or what would have become of me?” With this quota- tion from Ludwig van Beethoven, we circle back to our exhibition “Hope”. In 2020, the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth will be celebrated, both in Germany and internationally, and Bonn, the city of the composer’s birth, is taking on a central role. Participants in this excursion will visit the Beetho- ven-Haus in Bonn, discover the city during a guided tour, see the exhibitions “Beethoven. World.Citizen.Music” at the Bundeskunsthalle and “Salvador Dalí and Hans Arp: The Birth of Memory” at the Arp Museum Bahnhof Ro- landseck, and – last but not least – attend the concert “Two ‘Even-numbered’ Symphonies”, featuring works by Beethoven, at the Oper Bonn. Participation fee 385 € per person; registration by 16 January 2020 37
Excursion to Hagen and Essen JUGENDSTIL LIVE 9 May 2020 The Museum Folkwang is a cultural highlight of the city of Essen. The idea for the museum goes back to Karl Ernst Osthaus. After deciding against a future in the family business, Osthaus studied art history – and in 1902, he used his inheritance to found the Museum Folkwang in his home town of Hagen, at the time a thriving industrial city. Following Osthaus’s early death, the museum’s collection was sold to Essen, in 1922, and a museum with the same name, Folkwang – a name borrowed from Norse mythology – was established: in the Edda, a collection of Old Norse poems, Fólkvangr (people’s meadow) is a term used to describe the abode of the goddess Freya. Our day-long excursion ends with a tour of Osthaus’s Jugendstil villa, the Hohenhof, completed in 1908 and built by the renowned Belgian interior designer and architect Henry van de Velde. Participation fee; registration required 38
Excursion to Cuxhaven THE EXTREMES OF SEAFARING 29 Aug. 2020 With “Seascapes”, the showcase exhibition that will be on display during summer 2020, Draiflessen Collection will take visitors back in time to the sometimes belligerent, sometimes romantic, but always fascinating world of seventeenth-century seafaring. Reason enough to take a more in-depth look at the subject of sea travel and navigation! The shipwreck and fishery museum Windstärke 10 (Wind Force 10), which opened at the end of 2013 in Cuxhaven’s historic fish-packing halls, explores the extremes of seafaring, enables visitors to experience the perils of the sea, tells stories of shipwreck and the struggle to survive, and describes the hard work on board ships and the risks for boat and crew. After lunch at Unikat, located directly opposite the museum in Cuxhav- en’s harbour district, the group will take a guided walk across the mudflats and explore the Wadden Sea in Lower Saxony, a UNESCO Natural World Heritage site. Participation fee; registration required 39
Excursion to Seebüll HOME AND INSPIRATION 22–24 Oct. 2020 In conjunction with the exhibition “Emil Nolde – A Critical Approach by Mischa Kuball”, this excursion will take participants to the far north of Schleswig-Holstein to discover the beauty of the landscape that inspired Expressionist painter Emil Nolde. In 1927, Emil Nolde and his wife, Ada, began building their home in See- büll in the small municipality of Neukirchen not far from the Danish border. The couple’s home and its very special setting can be visited and the works of art Nolde created in Seebüll can still be seen there today. The excursion will also include a visit to a second Expressionist-style artist’s residence: the Kunststätte Bossard, the home of artist couple Johann Michael Bossard and Jutta Bossard-Krull. And, finally, the group will make a stop at Schloss Got- torf to see the castle’s magnificent rooms and works of art. Participation fee; registration required 40

PODIUM ’20
Marcella Hansch PACIFIC GARBAGE SCREENING 24 Apr. 2020 | 5:00 p.m. Each year millions of tonnes of plastic waste end up in the world’s oceans. After seeing more plastic than fish in the water during a scuba-diving hol- iday, Marcella Hansch decided to take action: she founded the start-up Pa- cific Garbage Screening. She and her interdisciplinary team are working to solve the problem of plastic waste in the oceans. Hansch will talk about her vision: a future in which the oceans are clean. She’ll also outline the devel- opment of her project and discuss what we as individuals can do to protect our environment. Admission € 2 for children, € 5 for adults Registration required 44
Katholische Kirchengemeinde Festival of Faith I’M HERE! BUT WHERE MIGHT THAT BE? 28 May 2020 | 7:00 p.m. We are living in a time in which many are diagnosing the absence of God and are doing so more and more as a matter of course – and it would seem that for the most part this causes no further pain of loss. So, is there still such a thing as hope for greater individual commitment in matters of faith and for vibrant church communities? This discussion, to be held as part of the festival of faith “I’m Here!”, organ- ised by the St Agatha parish in Mettingen, will consider these questions, bringing together pastoral theological scholarship, modern approaches to evangelisation, and concrete pastoral practice. Chair Volker Resing, Herder Publishing Speakers Dr Matthias Sellmann, Director of the Centre for Applied Pas- toral Research, Ruhr-Universität Bochum; Otto Neubauer, MA, Direc- tor of the Academy for Evangelisation in Vienna; Dr Jan Loffeld, Tilburg / Utrecht University; Pastor Timo Holtmann, Mettingen; and Pastor Nor- bert Swagemakers, Helmond 45

DAS kleine ICH BIN ICH (Little I-AM-ME) A Musical Fairy Tale (not just) for Children 16 Feb. 2020 | 11:30 a.m. | meet MUSIC: Foyer Concert Mira Lobe’s book “DAS kleine ICH BIN ICH” (Little I-Am-Me), about the little unnamed animal who goes in search of its identity, is a classic of chil- dren’s literature. In this musical fairy tale of the same name, younger and older listeners alike can embark on a journey into the fantastic world of cello sounds and music-text associations. The expressive possibilities of music make for a playful, sensory experience, with the animals portrayed so accu- rately through sounds and melodies that listeners think they can hear them. Opera and concert singer Kirsten Borchard will present the programme and recite the part of the main character. The 25-year-old composer of the piece, André Buttler, will accompany on piano. Completed in 2019, the work was commissioned for CellOro, a new cello ensemble comprising Kirsten Borchard and twelve cellists.

For these emotional pieces, the double bassist turned to Ludwig van Beethoven, deriving his themes from the composer’s works. With Rainer Böhm on piano and Patrice Héral on drums, the trio manages to dissolve boundaries between musical eras and genres and to create what is, quite simply, pure music: chamber jazz, intimate and extrovert at the same time, amazingly dynamic. Playing off one another with uncanny ease, the musicians create magnificent moments of magic, making the trio one of the most intense and organic live formations of its kind. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. | Tickets € 25, concessions € 20 | purchased in advance € 23.50, concessions € 18.50 | Tickets can be purchased in advance at Draiflessen gatehouse (Mon.–Fri. 8:00 a.m.–5:30 p.m.) or Touristinfo Mettingen, Clemensstrasse 2, 49497 Mettingen 51
