More than twenty artists from the Cambridge Arts Movement have made work that is inspired by their favourite art and objects in the Fitzwilliam Museum.

These Fitz Favourites range from far and wide across the Fitzwilliam collections, from Egyptian coffins to Persian ceramics, from Dutch to Venetian paintings.

We all have our favourites in the Fitzwilliam that we return to again and again, and delight in sharing our enthusiasm with friends. This exhibition is a fascinating display of the artistic imagination at work, transforming art from the past into something new in the present.
