The two exhibits focusing on pre-war European and post-war German art are coming to a close at the Ackland on July 11.
“DE-NATURED: German Art from Joseph Beuys to Martin Kippenberger” and “Romantic Dreams | Rude Awakenings: Northern European Prints and Drawings, 1840–1940.” Go in and check these out before they run out.
