Work by Robert Zandvliet from the Han Nefkens H+F Collection exhibited in Zwolle
This autumn, Museum de Fundatie in Zwolle and Rijksmuseum Twenthe in Enschede will organize the double exhibition entitled 'Gevaar & Schoonheid - Turner en de traditie van het sublieme' ('Danger & Beauty - Turner and the tradition of the sublime', in conjunction with Tate Britain. Turner is to Great Britain what Rembrandt is to the Netherlands. Until the present, Turner’s work has only been on show in the Netherlands on very few occasions. The double exhibition in Enschede and Zwolle presents around 50 paintings and watercolours by Turner in the context of European art history from the late Middle Ages to the present, with work by Aelbert Cuyp, Claude Lorrain, Gustave Courbet, Claude Monet, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Armando, Gerhard Richter, Robert Zandvliet and many others.

The work by Robert Zandvliet that is exhibited in Zwolle, is on long-term loan to Museum De Pont in Tilburg, The Netherlands.

5 September 2015 until 3 January 2016

ArtAids

The ArtAids foundation was set up in 2006 at Han Nefkens’ initiative. ArtAids fights AIDS with the power of art as its most important weapon. ArtAids invites leading artists to produce work that is inspired by AIDS and related problems. These works of art are used to raise the public’s consciousness and to encourage their involvement.

Fundació Han Nefkens

The Han Nefkens Foundation is a private non-profit organisation that was set up in Barcelona in 2009 with the aim of promoting the production of contemporary artworks. The mission is to stimulate artistic creation in Barcelona by offering international artists an opportunity to create artworks and interventions in the city, and to promote other fields of contemporary creation.

H+F

Han Nefkens started to collect art in 2000. The H+F Collection, named after himself and his partner Felipe, is in long-term loan to various museums in The Netherlands and abroad. Nowadays Han Nefkens is not only active as a collector but also as an initiator of international art projects, often in collaboration with museums and other art institutions.
