De Heus Family Restoration Fund

Thanks to a generous gift from the De Heus family in 2017, the museum was able to establish a fund. Its purpose is to finance restorations and the preparatory research for them, with a preference for modern and contemporary art.

Thanks to the fund, the entire photography collection can be researched and conserved, among other things. Important conservation measures such as removing fingerprints, applying barrier film, hermetically sealing photographs, and adding secondary supports or conservation mounts would not be possible without this support.

Restoration Project of Horizons by Geert Mul

In 2025, the long-awaited restoration of the interactive digital art installation Horizons (2008) by Geert Mul will take center stage in Gallery 2 of the Depot. This costly restoration project is made possible through funding from the Familie de Heus Restoration Fund. The digital art installation was originally created as an in-gallery intervention for the museum and was later donated to the museum by the artist. At present, the hardware is becoming obsolete, causing the artwork to no longer function properly.

To ensure that Horizons can continue to be exhibited for future generations and loaned to other institutions, it is necessary to restore and conserve the artwork. The process will be thoroughly documented and shared with the public. In addition, this documentation will help future staff members better understand how the work was created. Geert Mul is closely involved throughout the entire process. This project will serve as a prelude to the exhibition Pixel Pioneers, scheduled for spring 2026 at the Depot, in which Horizons will return within a broader context of art and technology.
