A Lasting Truth is Change – Viewing the collection differently

With a playful design, A Lasting Truth Is Change breaks through standard ideas about collecting and presenting art. The Van Abbemuseum invites you to take a fresh look. The artworks in this exhibition encourage you to look at the world you live in differently; to be curious about new stories that inspire, excite and activate.

A Lasting Truth Is Change brings together some ninety pieces from the museum’s own collection with ten well-chosen loans, including several new works. This combination of established names and emerging makers questions the composition of the Van Abbemuseum’s collection: who is included and why? And who is missing?
