The most discussed – ok ok Insta shared – current exhibition is the exhibition of Marina Abramović (the queen of the performance art) in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. Here, 60+ of her works are shown, including daily performances by specially trained performers. Including the act Imponderabilia which was first performed by Marina and her partner Ulay in 1977 and continues to cause a lot of buzz in 2024. Marina's works will touch you: you love it or you maybe hate it and you won't really understand it. But if you like a bit of mystery and perhaps some discomfort, go!

Museum Voorlinden is certainly one of our favorite museums in the Netherlands. The location in the green, the building and the impressive permanent works are one must see. There are currently two impressive temporary exhibitions there: Alicja Kwade (until June 9, 2024) who works with robust steel works, tree trunks and large stones. And the exhibition Cloudwalker (until January 19, 2024) where several artists show work with the concept “What would it be like to walk through the clouds?”. Finally, the Infinity Mirror Room: Gleaming Lights of the Souls van Yayoi Kusama. Also check the website, because Voorlinden works with time slots for the latter.
