Choosing Vincent: from family collection to Van Gogh Museum
Alternate title
From family collection to Van Gogh Museum
Abstract
The anniversary year of 2023 kicks off with a tribute to the Van Gogh family. Without the unconditional support that they offered Vincent, the museum simply would not have existed. The exhibition 'Choosing Vincent. Portrait of a Family History' tells a personal story of doubt, setbacks, pride, and triumph. A story punctuated with dilemmas, seen through the eyes of Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), his brother Theo (1857-1891), Theo's wife Jo (1862-1925) and their son Vincent (1890-1978), named after his uncle. The many masterpieces and lesser-known gems in the exhibition reveal how the family inheritance grew to become a world-famous collection. Exhibition: Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (10.02. - 09.04.2023).
