Hi ladies,

How about meeting for a museum and a drink on Friday, November 10, at 1pm?

Afterwards, at 2:30pm we're meeting for drinks and lunch at the Rijks restaurant.

Even if you have a museum card, you'll need to get your ticket at the Rijksmuseum website in advance, in order to reserve your entrance and join the group 1pm: https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/whats-on/exhibitions/collection-boijmans-van-beuningen

Once you have gotten your ticket and reseved your spot at the Rijksmuseum website, please contact Paula to join the little WhatsApp group of the meeting.

Much love! :)

"Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen

At the Riksmuseum

See a selection of exceptional art from the collection of Museum  Boijmans Van Beuningen this autumn at the Rijksmuseum – from Yayoi  Kusama to Pablo Picasso. And everyone outside the museum on Museum  Square will be able to see Ugo Rondinone’s light installation Breathe,  Walk, Die

Selection from the collection

The  Rijksmuseum is staging this exciting exhibition because Museum Boijmans  Van Beuningen is closed for major renovations. We are keen for art from  its collection to remain on display in the Netherlands during this  period. This show is running from 29 September 2023 to 14 January 2024  and presents 90 selected works – by artists such as Bosch, Rubens,  Bruegel, Rembrandt and Van Gogh, as well as Monet, Mondriaan, Munch and  Dalí.

All of human life The  exhibition is based around various themes, allowing for the display of a  wide range of artworks from all historical eras. Exhibits include The  Tower of Babel by Pieter Bruegel, The Little Fourteen-Year-Old Dancer by  Edgar Degas and Yayoi Kusama’s Infinity Mirror Room. Rijksmuseum  curator Friso Lammertse says: ‘This exhibition takes a journey into  human existence through art from the Middle Ages to today. While so many  aspects of human life are universal – birth, youth, growing up,  sexuality, ageing and death – we have experienced them differently  across the centuries.’

Audio tour with Raven van Dorst For  the audio tour accompanying the exhibition, Rotterdam-based presenter  and musician Raven van Dorst wandered with the curators from artwork to  artwork, discussing the themes of the exhibition. There is also a  musical tour by composer, producer and DJ Upsammy."
