Ask anything

  • Amii Shirjahani asked

    Waarom is dit kunst? Van alle kunst in jullie collectie besloten jullie deze in het depot te plaatsen. Waarom?

  • Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

    Beste Amii,

    Paul McCarthy's Bunkhouse staat nu in de galerie omdat het werk nu onderzocht wordt op de techniek en het geregistreerd wordt, zodat alle onderdelen van het werk vindbaar zijn in ons systeem.

    Er zijn weinig grote installaties van McCarthy vindbaar in musea. O.a. hierom hebben wij het werk aangekocht. Of het kunst is, laat ik aan jou :)

    Groetjes,
    Gianni
