(WEST LONG BRANCH, NJ) -- Monmouth University's Center for the Arts presents Exhibition on Screen - Rembrandt on Monday, December 8, 2025 in the Pollak Theatre. This film showcases a landmark exhibition, featuring unprecedented loans from around the world – a unique opportunity to experience the passion and innovation of Rembrandt. Showtime is 7:00pm.
Every Rembrandt exhibition is eagerly anticipated but this major show hosted by London’s National Gallery and Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum was an event like no other. Given exclusive, privileged access to both galleries, the film documents this landmark exhibition whilst interweaving Rembrandt’s life story with behind-the-scenes preparations at these world famous institutions.
The exhibition focuses on the highlights from the final years of Rembrandt’s life, commonly thought to be his finest years. The masterpieces he produced during this period could be called his defining works, with each piece so soulful and honest that they helped sculpt our idea of Rembrandt as a man and as an artist. This film explores each of the exhibition’s key works, through contributions from specially invited guests including curators and leading art historians.
For many, Rembrandt is the greatest artist that ever lived and this film seeks to explore the truth about the man behind the legend. The film is directed by Kat Mansoor, narrated by Robert Lindsay, and produced by Phil Grabsky.
Tickets are $23 (adult), $21 (senior), $10 (child), $5 (Monmouth University student). Tickets are available for purchase online. The Pollak Theatre is located at 400 Cedar Avenue in West Long Branch, New Jersey.
