Considering the Collection & King Vulture An Insert by Willem de Rooij
With the new format Considering the Collection & An Insert by… , a series of exhibitions has been established for the coming years that is to show prominent works from the collection and to feature, in a separate part of the Paintings Gallery, a contemporary position resulting from engagement with the Academy’s Art Collections.
