SUMMARY:From Grandma's Christmas Parlour: Historical Christmas tree decorations from private collections
DESCRIPTION:Richly decorated Christmas parlours fascinated people in historical times. Trees and walls were decorated with Santas\, angels and tinsel\, and sleighs and Christmas nutcrackers put a sparkle in children’s eyes. \nHistorical Christmas decorations have long been popular collectables. Numerous private collections are dedicated to this field\, which has a special significance as a reflection of middle class life in bygone times. The collection of historical Christmas tree decorations and Christmas paraphernalia on show in the Couven Museum belongs to the Eschweiler collector Heinz Lanzen\, who has accumulated an extensive collection of almost 800 objects. They range from items from the Biedermeier period to curious little devil baubles from the ’20s and decorations from the mid ’40s of the 20th century. \n  \n \n01.12.2007 – 03.02.2008\nOpens: 30.11.2007\, 7.00 pm \nFlyer From Grandma’s Christmas Parlour

SUMMARY:Art Nouveau Dreams
DESCRIPTION:Summer 2007 sees an exhibition in the rooms of the Couven Museum of a selection of items from one of the greatest private collections of art nouveau. The internationally acclaimed former violinist and concertmaster Giorgio Silzer\, originally from Upper Silesia\, was a passionate collector who over the years accumulated an extensive collection of hand-crafted art nouveau items. \n  \nThis summer\, a selection of items from one of the greatest private collections of art nouveau will be on show in the stylish ambience of the Couven Museum. The internationally acclaimed former violinist and concertmaster Giorgio Silzer\, originally from Upper Silesia\, was a passionate collector who over the years accumulated an extensive collection of hand-crafted art nouveau items. The exhibition features objects of everyday use made of ceramic\, glass and pewter as well as a rich array of silver cutlery. All the prominent workshops of the time\, from Berlin to Paris\, from Vienna and St. Petersburg to Nancy and Sèvres are represented. Masterpieces by famous designers from Peter Behrens\, Joseph Maria Olbrich and Henry van der Velde to Peter Carl Fabergé and Emile Gallé bring the world of the “belle époque” back to life. \nThe collection offers a characteristic insight into the stylish innovations of the art nouveau period between 1885 and 1914 in its ambivalent trends between playfully ornamental incorporation of vegetable forms and more sober design aimed at a conciliation of form and function. The rejection of historicism cleared the way for introduction of new artistic ideas\, e.g. from Japanese and Oriental art\, or from pre-classical antiquity. The prime objective was to create a new synthesis of the arts that would impact on everyday life\, an aesthetic unity of architecture\, fine arts and performing arts\, handicrafts and general lifestyle. The cultural emergence of art nouveau\, which spread through all of the industrialised nations and redefined life philosophy and the internationalism of artistic creation alike\, ultimately became the foundation of the modern age after the First World War. \n \n \nThe exhibition will subsequently move to the History Museum in Marstall\, Paderborn Schloß Neuhaus (17 November 2007 – 27 January 2008) \nAn exhibition catalogue is available at a price of 10\,- Euro \n

SUMMARY:13 x 13 – The World in Squares
DESCRIPTION:The historic house at the Hühnermarkt has around 300 Dutch tiles from a private collection on display. In combination with its own inventory of historical ceramic tiles from the Ludwig Collection\, the Couven Museum thus offers a comprehensive insight into home living in the 16th to 19th centuries. \n \nDecorative ceramic tiles originated in the Middle East\, making their way first to Spain and ultimately to the Netherlands\, where by the end of the 16th century numerous factories were specialising in the production of faience and tiles. In the 17th century the Netherlands experienced an economic and cultural heyday\, often referred to as its “Golden Age”. Prosperity resulted in the rapid growth of the cities\, and the middle classes maintained town residences and country estates that were lavishly decorated with tiles. \nDuring the 17th century\, the range of pictorial motifs expanded to include scenes of daily life. Such depictions of everyday life placed less emphasis on realism and more on instant recognition. On an area of 13 x 13 cm\, the artists succeeded in depicting small image worlds that were at the same time representations of the real world. The Baroque understanding of art and decoration required the decoration pattern on the walls to be an integral whole. The pictures on the tiles were designed to serve this specific taste. And so we find that the animals are often depicted jumping in the same direction and that the figures often stand in the same landscape – in essence\, uniformity over individuality. \nThe motifs of the wall tiles include flora and fauna\, landscapes and recurrent portrayals of people at work and at play. On the so-called “children’s games” tiles\, the little ones are depicted playing marbles (“Knikkeren”)\, riding hobby horses (“Stockpaardje”) or playing badminton. On the “Ambacht tiles” we find portrayals of a range of handicrafts\, for example a cobbler and a tanner at work. Soldiers in contemporary uniform perform military drills; magnificent horsemen sit high on prancing horses. Landscape tiles show coastal scenes with ships out at sea and\, of course\, the obligatory Dutch windmills. \nOpening:\nSunday\, 04.12.2005\, 11.00 \n24.12.\, 25.12. und 31.12.2005 closed\n01.04.2005 ab 13.00 open \n3\,00 Euro / 1\,50 Euro \nFurther information (German): \nGeschichte der Fliesenkeramik\nKinder im Couven\nMuseumspaedagogisches Angebot\n \nBooking: \nMuseen der Stadt Aachen\nWilhelmstraße 18\nD – 52070 Aachen\nTel +49 (0)241 / 47980-0 / -20\ninfo@suermondt-ludwig-museum.de\nwww.suermondt-ludwig-museum.de \n13 x 13. De wereld in kwadraat\nNederlandse tegels uit privé bezit\nVanaf 4 december 2005 t/m 30 april 2006 toont het Couven-Museum ongeveer 300 Nederlandse tegels uit privé bezit. Als aanvulling op de historische tegelkeramiek uit de verzameling Ludwig wordt zo een uitvoerig inzicht in het leven en het lef- en wooncultuur verleend van de 16de tot de 19de eeuw. \n13 x 13.

Le Monde en carré\nCarreaux néerlandais de collection privée\nDu 4 décembre 2005 au 30 avril 2006 le Musée Couven montre environ 300 carreaux néerlandais de possession privée.
