Temporary Museum (Lake) Anne Holtrop

Inspired by the artist Dada Jean Arp, and in particular his automatic drawings, the architect and artist Anne Holtrop began the design of this temporary museum with a series of spatial sketches through which he intended to “discover form”.

The result is an organic and flowing line, alluding to the idea of ​​a landscape element – ​​a lake, located in a nature reserve northwest of Amsterdam. The frame uses a simple construction sheathed in untreated laminated poplar. Many openings establish a relationship between the inside and the outside, leading Anne Holtrop to assert: "There is never a moment when you can consider the form in its entirety, whether inside or outside. 'exterior'.

Although in our opinion this temporary space is a work of art in its own right, it has also hosted the unique works of four artists - Renie Spoelstra, Eva-Fiore Kovacovsky, Driessen & Verstappen and Sjoerd Buisman - invited to interpret the landscape theme.
