Summercourse 'The Collection Now' (in Dutch)
Summercourse 'The Collection Now' (in Dutch)
In a short but intensive three-day course you are introduced to art from 1900 on the basis of the collection of the Van Abbemuseum. On these days you will be presented with a varied programme. We will look at and discuss works of art and art movements in the gallery, ask you to perform short tasks yourselves and provide background information. We also devote attention to how an exhibition is compiled and supervised. There is plenty of room to exchange ideas on the experiences which you can have, both in and outside the museum. In consultation with the participants on the course a simple lunch will be organised in addition to the shorter tea or coffee break (outside if the weather is good).
The course will be held from 28 to 30 July, from 10.00 a.m. to 4 p.m.
