Spanning antiquity to the twentieth century, Fragments explores the changing status and significance of incomplete works of art across history. Bringing together sculptures, drawings, photographs, and devotional objects, the exhibition traces how fragments have been understood not simply as remnants of lost wholes, but as objects whose meanings have continually evolved. Whether preserved as witnesses to vanished civilisations, revered through religious devotion, studied by artists, or prized by collectors, fragments occupy a unique position between absence and survival, inviting each generation to reconsider the relationship between the past and the present.
