Darkness, cold, everyday routines and a slow advance towards brighter times – this is what many associate with the months from November to February. The period between the autumn and vernal solstices has inspired us to select the works of 15 artists in the museum’s collection, all of whom express intensity with economical means, a restrained colour range and reflections on everyday life.
