In this edition of NGV Magazine, our cover story features one of the most recognised names in seventeenth century Dutch art, Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn with a deep dive into the upcoming exhibition Rembrandt: True to life. We introduce the 2023 Melbourne Winter Masterpieces exhibition, Pierre Bonnard: Designed by India Mahdavi with features on the French artist and an exclusive interview with the Tehran-born architect and designer India Mahdavi. Also in this issue, Melbourne Now artists reflect on how Melbourne has served as their muse and we celebrate the return of artist Takahiro Iwasaki’s large scale suspended sculpture Reflection model (Itsukushima) 2013 to NGV International.
