The Teylers Museum in Haarlem will be opening their latest exhibition Michelangelo and Men later in October.
According to their website:
Five hundred and fifty years after his birth, Teylers Museum is paying homage to one of the most celebrated artists in history. From 15 October 2025 up to and including 25 January 2026, 'Michelangelo and Men' is on display: an exhibition about the fascination of Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) with the male body. An international first: never before has an exhibition been entirely dedicated to this theme. More than twenty drawings from the collection of Teylers Museum will be supplemented with top-class international loans, including the marble sculpture 'Apollo-David'. All these works combined shed new light on the glorious leading role the male body played in both the life and art of Michelangelo.
