Welcome to ArtsTalk Magazine Holland

Launched in June 2017, we are the sister publication of StageTalk Magazine in the UK and provide previews, reviews and information, in English, for theatres, art exhibitions, concerts, opera etc, concentrating on cities in south west Netherlands (Noord/Zuid Holland and Utrecht regions). Each venue, museum or gallery has its own page with information and a link to its website. The site is updated regularly and information is always coming in so there is always something new to discover or read about.

If you are promoting any events, please let us know and we’ll probably be able to list them.

Please subscribe to ArtsTalk Magazine using the box at the bottom of the page and follow us on social media using the links below so you are always up to date with the arts in Holland.

NOT ONLY, BUT ALSO. . .

Here’s a run down of some other events coming up in the next few weeks in Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and places nearby and in between, as well as relevant snippets of news and other bits and pieces that may be of interest – a sort of potpourri of Dutch arts and culture . . .

Greg has been reading extracts from the book exclusively for ArtsTalk Radio. Also, SOUWIE BUIS talks to art historian WENDY FOSSEN of Casa Dell’Arte about female artists in general and at those in the Rijksmuseum in particular.

BOOKS & LITERARY EVENTS

A New Book from the Museum Panorama Mesdag

Museum Panorama Mesdag Scheveningen and Scriptum Art Books present a new art book: The Painters of the Panorama of Scheveningen. Although the text is in Dutch there are enough pictures and things of interest to justify the book’s inclusion in the column.
