Invitation for the opening of the Exhibition “Episodes from the Old Testament - Iconography. From Dürer to Chagall”
 
At the turn of 2001, the Slovak National Gallery held an exhibition entitled "Episodes from the New Testament", accompanied by a catalogue with the same title. The exhibition "Figures and Episodes from the Old Testament" is a free continuation of this pictorial project. The conception is based on seventy-five themes most frequently depicted in art and linked to the main characters and heroes of the Old Testament (The Creation, Adam and Eve, The Flood, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, The Judges, Saul, David, Solomon, The Prophets, Job, Tobias, Esther). Every theme of this exhibition, similar to the New Testament, will be documented in at least one or more Slovak or European artworks from the Middle Ages to the end of the 20th century. The exhibition focuses on the paintings, graphic prints and sculptures from the collections of the Slovak National Gallery and the works loaned from Slovak and foreign collections.
