| What brings you to the museum this month? Are you coming to see the new exhibition by artist Anouk Griffioen? It's also your last chance to view the exhibition Open-Ended. And: Georges Seurat's Le Chahut is back home! |
|
| Visit the exhibition For as long as it lasts and discover the life-size charcoal drawings by Anouk Griffioen (1979). |
| The starting point of the exhibition is a photograph taken by Griffioen's father in Enschede on the day she was born. Based on the thousands of photos her father has taken, she revisits and photographs all the places her family once lived. Griffioen places her photographs alongside those from the past and processes the changes in impressive charcoal drawings. Through the large drawings, you as an observer sometimes literally step into her world. |

|
| You have until 6 April to visit the exhibition Open-Ended, with works by artists such as Marina Abramović and Ulay, Charlotte Posenenske and Gianni Colombo. Walk through a curtain of bones or wander through a dizzying passageway. The exhibition challenges you not only to view art, but also to take action. |

SPACE JOURNEY
NEW ACQUISITION |
| Want to see the museum's latest acquisition? From 25 March, you can see Alan Saret's Zinc Cloud in the exhibition Space Journey. This work is a light cloud of steel mesh that seems to rise up from the earth. This artist's work refers to the origins of the universe, the creation of the earth and forms of life. |
