About
The Ulster Museum holds one of the most important collections of twentieth-century and contemporary art in the UK and Ireland. SUSPENSE contains some of its highlights arranged in three rooms to show the development of the collection.
To complement The Taking of Christ and The Supper at Emmaus, works are included that resonate with Caravaggio's dramatic use of chiaroscuro (light and dark) and exploration of cinematic tension and suspense. Two films of importance are Segura, 2010 by Willie Doherty and Left Right and Centre, 2017 by Cornelia Parker. Both echo Caravaggio's revolutionary achievements in painting during the early 1600s.
