The Dutch Touch Exhibition
To celebrate the signing of the Agreement concerning Migration on 16 October 1950, the New Zealand Netherlands Foundation organised a unique art exhibition.
Artists of Dutch heritage have made a major contribution to the art scene in New Zealand and overseas. Their work often stands out through combining a traditional European skill base with a very contemporary Kiwi style.
The exhibition included works of the following Dutch/New Zealand artists:
- Anneke Borren
- Peter Deckers
- Leon van den Eijkel
- Robert Franken
- Gerda Leenards
- Alfred Memelink
- Doris de Pont
- Ricks Terstappen
- Rob Waanders
- Ans Westra
We are grateful for the support of the des Tombe family and the Hannie van Roekel bequest which enabled us to create this exhibition.
