Bijbels Museum Participates in RE:FWD Exhibition, Heading to Amsterdam
The Bijbels Museum (Cromhouthuizen) in Amsterdam is a key partner in an upcoming exhibition titled RE:FWD, which aims to explore themes of hope and a positive future through contemporary art. Originally developed under the working title No Time To Despair, this collaborative project will first open in Almere before traveling to Amsterdam.
Discovering the RE:FWD Exhibition in Amsterdam
RE:FWD is designed to engage a broad and diverse young audience. The exhibition's central theme revolves around finding hope for a future that may not yet be clearly visible but is nonetheless attainable. Inspiration for this concept is drawn from the biblical passage Romans 8:24-25, which speaks to persevering in hope for what is unseen. Visitors can expect to see exclusively contemporary artworks created by artists under the age of thirty.
The curatorial team for RE:FWD includes Caithlin Chong, Mees Elisas van Zanten, and Thierno Deme. They have shaped an experience intended to resonate with young people navigating contemporary challenges and seeking pathways to a more optimistic outlook.
