I long doubted what to select for the final Advent post. A post to mark the culmination of many days of anticipation, of light, and promise. The celebration of new life, of eternity. It’s beautiful and warm. Yet, I didn’t manage to select a glowing, celebratory artwork. 1/

I’m looking forward to a new year in which music will play a bigger role in my professional life again. It’s one of the reasons why I think fondly of having seen this installation during my summer holiday in Denmark. 1/

Another icon I got to see for the first time in my life this year: Edward Hopper’s Nighthawks. I fully understand why this is an icon. What a magnificent painting! The sense of loneliness it embodies is strongly palpable. 1/

For the shortest day, I chose a work by one of my favorite light artists: James Turrell. Seeing a work by Turrel when I was in high school, was my first encounter with contemporary art. Until then, I had had no real experience with it. 1/

One of my favorite exhibitions this year was Fiona Lutjenhuis’ solo at 1646 in The Hague. It was a total installation, with wall paintings, her (by now) iconic room dividers, sculptures, bread installations and a soundscape. 1/

It was such an unexpected pleasure to see this small work in the modern European arts section of the MFA in Boston. I knew it from the books, and we had requested it for the Mary Magdalene exhibit back in 2021. 1/

Dutch painter Charley Toorop is probably best known for her stark (self) portraits with their mesmerizing eyes. But I also have a soft spot for her landscapes and still lives. 1/

Recently I read a beautiful, haunting book by Caro van Thuyne. For a year she looked at, and collected images from, the world’s news as if it was happening to her personally. Instead of turning away from the horrible things happing, she let it confront her face first. 1/

Joan Mitchell was one of the few women painters of her time that gained critical acclaim during her lifetime. Her work can be described as abstract expressionist, it is not meant to represent anything but is all about evoking emotion and subjective experience instead. 1/

I absolutely love the raw and confrontational series Jeanne Bieruma Oosting made of sex workers in Paris. The graphic works don’t idealize or romanticize, but show these women’s realities in all their harshness. 1/

For third Advent Sunday I picked a remarkable work by a trailblazing artist, who was instrumental for the wider acceptance of women artists in her time - and long after. American painter Ellen Day Hale was thirty years old when she painted this self-portrait. 1/

One thing I like about art is that I learn so many new things from it. This tapestry for instance, taught me about a very particular tomato - and how its existence, like so many foods and peoples, is currently under threat. 1/

While the Michelangelo exhibition at Teyler’s mostly focused on his drawings and sketches, this small sculpture attributed to the master caught my eye. 1/

If you visit the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, do pop into the collection presentation. One of my favorite works here is this tv screen showing Martha Rosler’s Semiotics of the Kitchen. /1
