![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It's by no means business as usual yet for museums and galleries on the Continent, but many are now open, and there are some attractive-looking exhibitions starting in July, albeit, in a few instances, rather later than originally planned.Īt the Grand Palais in Paris, for example, Pompeii was due to get under way on March 27 but this immersive show finally sees the light of day on July 1, taking us back almost 2,000 years to when Vesuvius erupted and buried the city in AD 79. The show will feature work by the likes of Joan Eardley, Elizabeth Blackadder, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham and Victoria Crowe, whose luminous landscape paintings we saw in the Scottish capital last year. One exhibition that's scheduled to go ahead north of the border is Modern Masters Women at the Scottish Gallery in Edinburgh, running from July 30 to August 29. The Sainsbury is another venue asking its visitors to wear a mask. You can get a taster of the Art Deco show in a 15-minute video tour available on the BBC iPlayer. Its Art Deco by the Sea show, looking at how the style shaped the British seaside between the wars, has been extended until September 20, while another exhibition examining Art Nouveau: The Nature of Dreams in its various manifestations across the West will now run until December 31. The Sainsbury Centre in Norwich is open to visitors again on July 7. Only five hours a day, four days a week, and you'll need to wear a face covering. Meanwhile, the Royal Academy is letting friends in from July 9 and the general public from a week later to see its Picasso and Paper show, which will run until August 2. If you've not seen it, it's a real eye-opener and absolutely delightful. And on July 29, the stunning Forgotten Masters exhibition highlighting the work of Indian painters for English patrons during the East India Company's rule over the subcontinent comes back for a six-week run until September 13. The Wallace Collection will welcome the public again on July 15. ![]()
