A week immersed in art

14 October 2025

Every spring and autumn, I set off for a week-long trip through the Netherlands with my folding bike and the train, in search of art in the broadest sense of the word.
I visited various museums and galleries across the country and returned home with a head full of impressions, a heart full of ideas, and a phone full of photos.
I’d love to share a selection with you.

A week immersed in art

Oude Kerk, Amsterdam
Kimsooja – To Breathe
An installation about migration, uprooting, and finding home.
When sunlight filters through the colored windows of this beautiful church, it creates breathtaking patches of light. Truly worth a visit!
On view until 9 November 2025

STRAAT Museum, Amsterdam
An impressive exhibition of 180 monumental works of street art.

Kunsthal Rotterdam
This time I visited the exhibition by Iris van Herpen – Sculpting the Senses.
What a delight to be here! I can’t remember spending so much time at an exhibition. The dresses and other artworks are phenomenal, as is the way the exhibition itself is designed.
Highly recommended!
On view until 1 March 2026

Patriciërshuis Dordrecht
Photo exhibition “Rewriting History” by Suzanne Jongmans
A surprising and inspiring exhibition! Suzanne rewrites history by photographing people in the style of the old masters — but with a very modern twist, using recycled materials. Her photos stand out for their color, composition, and beautiful lighting.
On view until 26 October

Nationaal Glasmuseum and Glassblowing Studio, Leerdam
Inflatable Thoughts by Marinka van Zandwijk – until 9 November
An impressive exhibition both indoors and outdoors.
And it’s always fascinating to watch the glassblowers at work — it never gets old.

De Katoendrukkerij De Volmolen, Amersfoort
A specialized artisanal print studio where wooden printing blocks are used to print on paper and textiles.
A beautiful historic building where Nathalie Cassée (and others) teach workshops. The Volmolen is open to visitors.
Also highly recommended: an overnight stay in one of the two stunning B&B rooms.
