View on the Canals

The canals as inspiration  

The canals are more than just a beautiful backdrop for millions of tourists. They are cherished by the residents who live and work along the canals. The canals are full of history, but also with less beautiful sides. The artists showcased in this exhibition each offer a different perspective on the canals through paintings, photography, drawings, sculptures, and poetry. Some works are recognizable, while others are completely abstract, but each work invites you to look deeper and uncover new layers of meaning in what you see. Some artists have even created new work for this exhibition.
