Ruud Baan - Bewogen Tijd, 25 years of photography

Dordt-based photographer Ruud Baan's career began when analog photography, dark rooms and rolls of film were the norm. Twenty-five years later, he has developed into an internationally acclaimed photographer with an oeuvre filled with icons such as Kendrick Lamar, Cristiano Ronaldo and Armin van Buuren, and collaborations with brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Coca-Cola and BMW.
For this occasion, his photography will be projected as a collage over the Art Church and brought to life through various media.

  • The exhibition is free to visit through March 22 at the Kunstkerk in Dordrecht.
  • On several days, there will be exclusive tours of the exhibition and, in addition to information about works of art and themes of the exhibition, you will learn more about the Piet Oudolf garden, facade and history of the Art Church.

Schouwburg Kunstmin: plenty of performances

Many famous artists say that Schouwburg Kunstmin is the most beautiful theater in the Netherlands, and we agree! The theater is a national monument from 1889, that alone makes it worth a visit. In addition, the programming is very diverse; theater, cabaret, (classical) concerts, dance and youth theater. Also this month you will enjoy all that the theater has to offer. For example:
