Touring exhibitions

Keep pushing your boundaries, literally and figuratively. That is Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen’s motto. The museum has inspired the public for many generations. Today, the museum is available in everyone’s home and everyone’s pocket via new media. The museum’s travelling exhibitions ensure that people in other parts of the world can get to know the art collection of the city of Rotterdam in person.

Just like Marcel Duchamp's "La boîte-en-valise" (1936-41), an exhibition contained in a suitcase, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is coming to you and wants you to enjoy all the beauty our collection has to offer. The museum has developed an impressive programme of extraordinary exhibitions, providing an unforgettable experience for audiences abroad. We look forward to seeing you, wherever in the world that may be.

Surrealist Art. Masterpieces from Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in MUDEC, Milan

The exhibition in Milan (22 March – 30 July 2023) is a wonderful chance to see Boijmans’ Surrealism Highlights in dialogue with some masterpieces from Mudec’s permanent collection. It explores the fundamental themes of Surrealist research: dreams and reality, the psyche, love and desire and a new type of beauty. Through the works of lesser-known Surrealists, publications and historical documents, the exhibition provides visitors with a 360-degree view of the Surrealist universe. The exhibition is curated by Boijmans art historian Els Hoek in collaboration with Alessandro Nigro, professor of History of Art and Art Criticism at the University of Florence.

Boijmans in Transit

Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen has been closed since 2019 for a large-scale renovation and modernisation project. During this Transit period, the museum is showing its world-class collection in venues throughout Rotterdam and around the world. It has entered into a unique partnership with eight neighbouring venues in the city under the name ‘Boijmans Next Door’. Boijmans is also operating internationally, with travelling exhibitions abroad. At the beginning of the 2019/20 school year, the museum began showing works from the collection in local schools as part of ‘Boijmans in the Classroom’. Since the beginning of 2020, Boijmans, Humanitas and other local partners have been active in a former school in Rotterdam Zuid at Hillevliet 90. In the meantime, the construction of Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen is progressing steadily. The world’s first publicly accessible art storage facility will open in 2021 and will safely house and display 154,000 works of art.
