27 Feb The Best Art Exhibitions Of 2018

Art exhibitions are popular all around the globe and people who have a knack for art in any form are the first ones to flock to such events. The city of Amsterdam is no different in this regard and hosts a number of different and diverse art exhibitions which attract large crowds each year from around the world. There are too many exhibitions going on in the city throughout the year however, we have selected three of the best art exhibitions that we feel are a must-visit especially if you are in the city by then.

Street Art Museum

Variety of wall paintings

This is absolutely a one-of-a-kind art exhibition and it can be assured that you won’t find many like it elsewhere in the world. The Street Art Museum in Amsterdam is probably one of the largest street museums in the world as it covers an area of around seven thousand meters.

Some of the best artists are present at the event which is held at the NDSM Wharf.

Eddo Hartmann, Pyongyang, And North Korea Part 2

Arts that embraces North Korea

North Korea is one of the toughest countries to get into and paying a visit is definitely not straight-forward.

Eddo Hartmann, a Dutch photographer, managed to get permission from the North Korean authorities to photograph the city of Pyongyang, its architectural beauty and the daily lives of the general public. The exhibition will be held at Huis Marseille, Amsterdam.

He is one of the finest pop artists out there who is known for his comic styled paintings which are aimed at showcasing his view of the society around him. His works are on display in the Moco Museum, Amsterdam and are viewed daily by many interested people.

There are countless other exhibitions that are taking place in Amsterdam each year however, you should try to attend at least these three if not all.
