Reviews
The museum is very well thought out, it makes an excellent case for modern abstract art as well as situating it in context, and giving a history of its reception including by totalitarian regimes.
Bold display choices are made leading to the artworks being displayed in sometimes unusual ways but to their advantage.
The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The museum shop has many interesting things on offer.
The Van Abbe Museum is currently hosting a really interesting exhibition about how the colonial past of The Netherlands is affecting Dutch people of colour today.
It's a small museum with a limited collection. However, they must have had very good curator. For they have made the most or of their collection to construct a narrative that you wouldn't have found, by just looking at the painting. It was worth the visit.
I had a great time, getting inspired by the great artists of modern times. And after my walk I enjoyed a delicious carrot cake with an energizing ginger cinnamon tea 💕
Interesting modern art museum that has a few famous names and a good explanations. However is not as special as expected, subversion in presentation doesn't always mean "good": I have seen academic normal exhibitions that are more interesting.
