National Gallery Showcases Neo-Impressionist Works from Helene Kröller-Müller Collection
The National Gallery in London has opened 'Radical Harmony,' an exhibition featuring Neo-Impressionist paintings primarily from the collection of German art collector Helene Kröller-Müller. The show, which runs until February 8, 2026, marks the gallery's first dedicated Neo-Impressionist presentation and is the inaugural exhibition in the recently reopened Sainsbury Wing. Key works include Georges Seurat's 'Chahut' (1889-90), on loan from the Kröller-Müller Museum and displayed in the UK for the first time. The exhibition explores the movement's scientific approach to color through pointillist techniques, featuring artists such as Paul Signac, Maximillien Luce, Théo van Rysselberghe, and Anna Boch. Curator Julien Domercq highlights the significance of original frames in the display.
