Amsterdam Art Weekend 2014
Amsterdam Art Weekend’s third edition is being held during the last weekend in November, from Thursday 27 through Sunday 30. During the course of a long weekend, the Dutch capital is transformed into an international meeting place for promising and renowned artists, art enthusiasts and professionals. The program for Amsterdam Art Weekend 2014 is based on a number of pillars. Broadly, it involves gallery exhibitions, performances, screenings, conversations, residencies and a professionals program. At its heart is the discovery of young talent.
Amsterdam Art Weekend is organised by Amsterdam Art, a non-profit umbrella organisation for contemporary visual arts. It initiates and realises collaborations between various cultural parties and promotes their exhibition programs throughout the year.
