Amsterdam

Only a few days in Amsterdam this time. But I had time to meet up with colleagues from Holland and make some GSO-plans. I also had the time to visit MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) and got to see a great Lichtenstein and Banksy-exhibition.

After seeing all the colorful graffiti in Brazil and Chile, it was interesting to see Banksy´s colorfully sober, yet politically at times explosive art.

Amsterdam is so charming! I haven´t been here for a couple of years now, but it is still incredibly…  charming! Next year our youngest will be studying here, so I will get plenty more chances to go 😀

  1. so cool! i will visit you in amsterdam!!! 🙂

    i just watched a documentary on graffiti and the controversy of how people are profiting off of banksy pieces etc. i can’t remember what it was called. did you see his pieces in a museum? cause at the time of the documentary the guy rescued a banksy piece in SF and was determined to not profit off it but instead donate it to a museum so it could be available to the public. for 2 years he couldn’t find a museum to take the piece. it was crazy! he had private collectors offering upwards of $700,000 though.
