Great Exhibitions #2 – Miriam Cahn at Stedelijk Museum

Details

Join us for the second event in the "Great Exhibitions" series, where we'll be visiting one of the most powerful and provocative art exhibitions currently on display in the Netherlands. On Saturday, November 23rd, we’ll meet at 3:00 PM in front of the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam to experience "Miriam Cahn – Reading Dust", a deeply emotional and unsettling exhibition by the renowned Swiss artist. Cahn’s work, which tackles subjects such as war, gender, violence, and oppression, is known for its raw, visceral depictions and powerful symbolism.

The exhibition features around 100 works, including paintings, drawings, and films, arranged across five thematic rooms. As you move through the exhibition, you’ll be confronted with images of figures and bodies that reveal the brutality of conflict, the fragility of human existence, and the universal experience of suffering. Cahn’s ability to turn these difficult subjects into visual poetry will leave a lasting impact, making this a must-see exhibition for any art enthusiast.

After the exhibition, we’ll head to La Dilettante, a charming wine bar with a French-inspired atmosphere. Founded by former employees of GlouGlou, one of Amsterdam’s iconic wine bars, La Dilettante offers a unique selection of wines perfect for unwinding after an intense art experience.
