Foreword

BVB Collections

Keep moving your boundaries, literally and figuratively – this is Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen's watchword. The museum has been inspiring the public for thirteen generations. Now, new media bring the museum to everyone in their living rooms and on their mobiles and tablets. The museum itself is a place to meet, enjoy and learn more about superb art. BVB Collections, the travelling exhibition programme we are proud to present here, lets people on all continents experience the collection in person in a whole range of exhibitions.


Like Marcel Duchamp's La boîte-en-valise (Box in a Suitcase, 1952), an exhibition in a box, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen comes to you to fire your imagination and let you enjoy the wonderful things our collection has to offer. The museum unpacks its extraordinary exhibitions on locations outside the Netherlands to give the public an unforgettable experience. We look forward to seeing you, wherever you are in the world.
