Bodyworlds: The Happiness project



You must have seen the TV commercial or the billboards for Body Worlds. Skeletons or an animation (well how should I call it) people without skin and hair. In any case, I find it totally amazing Body World. An anatomy idea but I think immediately of pathology but that decompose more, right? BODY WORLDS in Amsterdam. The interactive exhibition tells the story of the body of man and the influence of the phenomenon of "luck" on our health. There are over 200 anatomical specimens of real human bodies show the complexity , resilience and vulnerability of the body.

DWDD popup museum



If you love to go to a museum or you love the television program De Wereld Draait Door (The World Keeps Turning) then you should definitely go to the DWDD Pop-Up Museum. In this museum nine visitors/patrons of the popular TV show did together an exhibition. They choose their favorite works from the depots of eleven Dutch top museums. The second edition of the DWDD Pop-Up Museum is to see from 29 January  until May 22, 2016 in the Allard Pierson Museum .

Verborgen kunstwerken/Hidden artwork

The guest curators, including Carice van Houten, Wim T. Schippers and Paul de Leeuw, go into any other museum in search of work from hidden masters. Each museum is decorated in a room in the Allard Pierson, to the ideas and tastes of the guest curators. Participating museums include the Mauritshuis , Kröller-Müller Museum, Teylers Museum Boijmans van Beuningen Museum and National Maritime Museum (Scheepvaartmuseum).

Rollende keukens



Food should not be left on my blog page . Therefore, I highly recommend the event Rolling Kitchen at the Westergasfabriek from 12 May to 16 May. More than one hundred to mess tent, converted camper. double decker buses, vans and motorbikes serve pizzas, fresh soups, delicate fish dishes, smoothies and many more goodies . Enjoy the culinary delights in the sun or during a movie screening in the open air. In addition, there are today a number of musical performances on the agenda. Check the website of Rollende Keukens
