The graduate exhibition of the Academy of Fine Arts–Städelschule returns to the Städel Museum after ten years. Thirty-one artists present works in various media and disciplines.

About

The physical and historical proximity between both institutions is present not only in the exhibition space, the Peichlbau of the Städel Museum, but also in the vision of founder, Johann Friedrich Städel: the academy and the museum return to his founding vision of the display and teaching of fine art closely interlinked.

The title “After Rubens” refers to the recent Rubens exhibition, which was presented in the same wing of the Städel Museum. The graduates react to the extant museum architecture with an ambivalent attitude. Where Baroque masterpieces once hung, the present state of art is shown. After Rubens, something new begins: after the Städel – before the exit.
