Oog in oog met de Dood – Musea Brugge

After a thorough four-year restoration, the work “The Death of Mary” (“Oog in oog met de Dood”) shines like never before. The magnum opus of Hugo van Der Goes, one of Flanders’ greatest primitives, literally and figuratively takes center stage in Musea Brugge’s new exhibition. It is surrounded by video portraits of five New Masters, namely Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer, Sholeh Rezazadeh, Ivo van Hove, Berlinde De Bruyckere and Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, each giving their own impressions on the painting. 

 

At Zumo, we produced and post-produced the video footage enhancing Van der Goes’s masterpiece on-site, such as the video portraits of the New Masters and an ambient video on the process of the restoration, as well as motion graphics for social media ads.
