The Art of Fashion
Name dropping again – it’s a chronic condition – but Thimo te Duits, curator at the fantastic Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam, once gave me a private tour of the museum joking that its eclectic permanent collection and fast exhibition turnaround made it “the Colette of museums”… And it really is an amazing art space, with a collection that ranges from paintings to design & ceramics – the Netherlands Architecture Institute nearby is equally wonderful (Rotterdam being the European capital of architecture) and check the many galleries across the Westersingel on Witte de Withstraat… more in a separate post. The Art of Fashion opened 2 weeks ago at the Boijmans, it explores the interaction between art and fashion, and I was dead jealous of their beautiful flyer.
