Amsterdam Art Weekend
29, 30 November - 1st December 2013
For one weekend each year, the Amsterdam Art Weekend gives workshops, galleries and art institutes a chance to present Amsterdam’s latest and best contemporary art. Galleries display the work of alumni and residents of the participating artists’ studios. Art institutes present the work of artists affiliated to the city’s galleries. Galleries offer exhibitions and special events such as performances, artist talks, concerts, and small-scale art fairs. The International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam, which takes place at the same time, shows art films submitted by galleries, the Rijksakademie, and ateliers as part of its Paradocs programme at the famous Tuschinski movie theatre. This internationally focused festival is aimed at culture aficionados and professionals.
