REUNION, From Quinten Metsijs to Peter Paul Rubens
The Project
On June 5, 2009 16 magnificent altarpieces returned from the Royal Museum of Fine Arts to The Cathedral. The exhibition REUNION, highlights the patronage of crafts, guilds and fraternities. We wrote stories on behalf of the Cathedral about the exhibited altarpieces. It is not the classic "talk about a picture’, but real radio plays. There is Mary, who tells about the altarpiece “The miraculous catch”. And there is Martin Verbeke, who will explain more about the altarpiece of the carpenters craft. Yes, even Jacob Jordaens speaks to the visitors. We translated the stories into French, English, German and Spanish. Then we let them read by three great actors.
