Point of View #18 showcases a painting 'rediscovered' in the depot, a work by Otto van Veen who was Rubens' last and most important teacher. It has not been on display since the eighteenth century, possibly because of its highly unusual subject matter, a celebration of strong, independent and courageous women. For a long time art historians were mystified by this exceptional depiction of confident women clearly at ease with their nudity; however, the arms scattered around in the foreground allow us to identify them as amazons. Although we now know both the name of the artist and the subject matter, this work painted in Antwerp around 1600 still poses a number of fascinating questions: was the panel formerly in the collection of Emperor Rudolf II? What is the meaning of the monogram on the panels reverse, and is it possible that the young Rubens was involved in its production Van Veen's Amazons probably dates from the time Rubens, worked in van Veen's studio, making the painting a vital starting point for our understanding of the younger masters early work. The composition will be included in our important upcoming Rubens exhibition where it will be shown together with early works by this exceptional Flemish painter, documenting the evolution of Rubens' depiction of women.

In de zomer van 2018 organiseert het MAS in Antwerpen in samenwerking met het Rubenshuis een eerste monografische tentoonstelling over de vergeten kunstenares Michaelina Wautier (1614-1689). Ze werd geboren in Mons maar bouwde haar loopbaan uit in Brussel waar ze rond 1650 actief was. De kunstenares onderhield contacten met het hof van aartshertog Leopold-Wilhelm die vier van haar werken in zijn collectie had. Van haar hand zijn een dertigtal schilderijen en één tekening bekend. Meer dan een derde hiervan is voluit gesigneerd en gedateerd. Michaelina schilderde meesterlijke historiestukken, indringende portretten, ontwapenende genretaferelen en verstilde bloemstukken. Haar veelzijdigheid is zonder meer grensverleggend te noemen
