[Jan 18-May 4, 2014] Vermeer Art Exhibit at CKS Memorial Hall - "Master of Light"

Johannes Vermeer, now recognised as one of the great painters of the Dutch Golden Age, painted pictures portraying middle class life during his lifetime. One of his better-known paintings is "The Girl With the Pearl Earring".  Known as the "Master of Light", he used shade and light in an almost magical way in his art. Through his paintings, children can learn about daily life in Holland during the 17th Century, and hopefully be inspired to learn about history and art.


Vermeer's works are going to be displayed at the CKS Memorial Hall for four months next year.  You can buy tickets at 150NT each through schools, so ask your children to get a flier from their teacher.  You can also buy tickets at the door, at not much more than the presale price.


Adults: NTD200. Students and over-65's: NTD180.

Times: Everyday 9am-6pm (Closed Chinese New Year's Eve and Day)

Place: CKS Memorial Hall's Art Exhibit Area (Chungshan South Road No. 21, Taipei City - 台北市中正區中山南路21號)
