Alles wat in musea, galeries, op rotondes en dorpspleienen staat, en boven bankstellen hangt. En Marina Abramovic
Een stad of gemeente met voldoende atelierruimte is niet alleen gunstig voor de creatieve beroepsgroep zelf, maar ook voor de buurt: omwonenden, winkeliers en bedrijven. Professionele kunstenaars, ongeacht leeftijd of ervaring, zorgen voor een positieve levendigheid. Naast het maken van kunst geven ze ook les aan jongeren en amateurkunstenaars. Er worden ‘open atelier dagen’ georganiseerd en er komen gastexposanten langs.…
The art world owes much more to women than museums, galleries, magazines and other institutions portrayed for decades. The Arp Museum in Rolandseck is now making a splash with an exhibition that seeks to equalise the roles of women and men in the Dada movement.
Arriveer als een Van Gogh in Groningen. Start bij het monumentale hoofdstation en bereid je alvast voor op wat je te wachten staat in het Groninger Museum.

The meeting room in the attic of the building on Brouwersgracht began to fill. Prior to the meeting, Director Geert Dales of the Fonds Beeldende Kunst, Vormgeving en Bouwkunst (BKVB) retreated with the chairman of the Fund Council. He wanted clarity on the role of that Fund Council by now. Where did the representatives of...
Heartbreaking diary entries from the Ukraine war formed the basis for Nora Krug's new book. 'The drawn image has the power to provide a different perspective on reality.'

Hier zal hij gedurende drie maanden onderzoek doen naar de rol die familie speelt binnen het (neo)fascisme en onderzoekt hij zijn eigen familiegeschiedenis. Mussolini in de familie Onder de titel Mussolini in the Family stelt Staal de…
A room full of beautiful shiny gold and silver objects, from coins to swords. With so many shiny items, the magpie in me wakes up. But instead of gold, I take home knowledge: insight into a culture that has been 'forgotten'. Dacia - Realm of gold and silver at the Drents Museum is one such exhibition that I am happy to...
On 29 June, the curators and the consortium of The European Pavilion 2024: Liquid Becomings in Belgrade announced the participating artists and the boat routes. The artists were selected after an open call in March 2024 to join the curators on four boat trips on four European rivers: the Danube, Vistula, Rhine and Tagus. Each team ...
Een van de minder bekende en dus verborgen juweeltjes van dit Holland Festival is te vinden in het Transformatorhuis van de Amsterdamse Westergasfabriek. In die ruimte is een enkele kunstenaar elke dag 6 uur lang bezig om 40 ton zand van de ene naar de andere berg te scheppen. Dat klinkt raar, maar wie erbij is, maakt iets heel bijzonders…

Hidden treasures. Like other museums, the Groninger Museum houses many objects that deserve to be exhibited. Interesting paintings, sculptures or archaeological splendour of which visitors are unaware. Happy birthday is a treat. The Groninger Museum celebrates its hundred and fifty-year anniversary with - among other things - an exhibition in which you get a look behind the scenes. Objects...
Free art is in danger. At least that is what the Free Left Foundation claims. The article goes around persistently on facebook: "Unfree art is not really art at all." Actress Femke Lakerveld breaks a lance for the free arts in this interview with journalist Joep van Ruiten. The occasion is a manifestation in Groningen, which will feature a number of speakers on whether...
From Wednesday 6 to Friday 15 March, you will find a special exhibition at the NUT studio (Berlijnplein, Utrecht). Other people's debt explores the world of debt through the lens of visual art.

Our intended prime minister wants to abolish almost all cultural subsidies. Only art that can be properly understood by 'real Dutch people' still deserves financial support. Wilders targets cultural subsidies from an ideological background. Anyone visiting the exhibition 'Art in the Third Reich - Temptation and Distraction' at Museum Arnhem cannot escape seeing disturbing comparisons. Wilders sees art as a...
"There is something strange going on. Municipalities have no money to build or furnish such a theatre, and companies have too little money to make productions. So it is chafing on both sides." Huub Huikeshoven, trained as an interior designer, works at Theateradvies, an organisation that advises on the layout and design of theatres. There, it turns out quite...
It had been hanging in the air for a while, but now there seems to be fairly incontrovertible evidence that Marcel Duchamp did not invent his urinal artwork himself. A book to be published next month claims that the inventor of 'conceptual' art nicked his thing from German artist Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven. That in itself was a longer-running ...
On 11 September 1883, Vincent van Gogh disembarked at Hoogeveen train station. Away from The Hague urbanisation and back to nature. The painter spends months in the area around Hoogeveen, Nieuw-Amsterdam/Veenoord and goes to Zweeloo for a day. He uses his period in Drenthe to unwind and experiment with themes, colours and...
Still Amersfoort by the Sea is not a reality. Sea level rise is taking a bit longer to materialise. In the meantime, then, the city is still just centrally located in the country, with the largest national hub for train traffic, an average population profile, a historic city centre, a unique training programme for carillonneurs, as well as the 'music factory' in the Veerensmederij and the art gallery KAdE...., which scores well in reviews.
Nice how things coincide, on 'Summer Chairs'. Last week, I reported on the BBC breakfast show's Red Bench, and what a torture device it is. On Sunday 20 August, an almost exact equivalent of that semi-circular Red Bank came along in Summer Guests with Kamagurka. This Red Bench was in a Flemish theatre with Johan Anthierens, who in his show 'At...
