Art Historical Amsterdam

We will soon be launching our fortnightly Art talks in the centre of Amsterdam!

 

Held at private members club Arti et Amicitiae, these talks are in English, set in this historical building right in the centre of town, within easy reach of public transport.

An artist's society, Arti et Amicitiae is both a building steeped in the history of the artist community of Amsterdam, and a contemporary exhibition space for contemporary local artists.  

 

The talks will take place after work, fortnightly on Thursdays 20.00-22.00, and will consist of a lecture and the chance to make use of the private bar afterwards for socialising.

They will kick off on Thursday 16th of January 2025 - so block your calendars!

The following talks are currently being scheduled:

  • Women in the Dutch Republic

  • Our Lord in the Attic; religion, tolerance and politics in the Netherlands

  • Mondriaan's Evolution into Abstraction

  • Amsterdam: built on slavery and colonialism

  • Mystery, miracles and magic: the work by the artist M.C.Escher

  • The Dutch Golden Age in 6 Paintings

  • Symbolism & Iconography in Dutch paintings

 

During the Fall of 2024 we will be holding two taster sessions on Thursday 31 October and Thursday 28 November. Bookings for these sessions will be reduced fee and the possibility to buy a discounted 'season ticket' for 2025 will be made available during these talks.
