An established dialogue between Rheinsberg’s work and the ancient and modern collections of the Glyptotek. German-born Rheinberg (1943-) traveled around Greece in 1998, where he assembled collections of objects retrieved from the surplus and refuse of this country, famous for its ancient culture. In his archaeological display of objects - old and new, he brings the concept of material antiquity sharply into question.

This exhibition was inspired by the years that Rivera lived in Paris from 1915 to 1921. There, he made the close acquaintance of a wide circle of artists, among them a number of Scandinavians who met with Rivera to discuss and analyze movements in modern art. A fascinating view into this virtually unknown aspect of his life, as it explores his connection to Scandinavia.
