An art exhibition with a special concept: In The World Made Wondrous: The Dutch Collector's Cabinet and the Politics of Possession, the fictitious collection of a Dutchman is on display at the Los Angeles County Museum.

The rebirth of the dynamic body
During the Renaissance, Michelangelo Buonarroti, called »the Divine«, was considered the measure of art during his lifetime.
