An exhibition on the potato in art? Only Van Gogh could pull it off

The Noordbrabants Museum in 's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, opens a focused exhibition titled "Van Gogh and the Potato" on 11 October, running until 1 February 2026. The show features five Van Gogh paintings, two drawings, and a print centered on the potato motif, including "Still life with Potatoes" (autumn 1886), which has been newly identified as depicting "rat's back" potatoes. A key highlight is the study "Head of a Woman (Gordina de Groot)" (March-April 1885), acquired by the museum last year for €8.6 million. The exhibition also includes a lithograph of "The Potato Eaters" and explores Van Gogh's shift from peasant subjects to flower still lifes after moving to Paris.

Sebastiaan Bremer: Super Modern Things

Edwynn Houk Gallery presents "Super Modern Things," an exhibition of new works by Sebastiaan Bremer. The artworks blend photography and painting, starting from historical source images such as 17th-century Dutch botanical catalogues and Golden Age still life paintings. Bremer photographs these reproductions and adds ink and acrylic marks—dots, lines, stains, and washes—creating rhythms that evoke language, music, emotion, and constellations. The exhibition continues his long-standing exploration of flowers and the layered histories of still life, addressing themes of beauty, mortality, value, ecology, and global exchange. An accompanying monograph of his flower series is scheduled for Fall 2026.
