The tour will be added to the regular tour (Podcatcher) and is guaranteed to offer a fresh new perspective on art and on famous pieces from the collection. Humorous, sometimes abrasive, but also surprisingly personal and always with a conspicuous eye for detail.

Sweet Summer Nights
The idea originated during the Sweet Summer Nights of 2010. Nico Dijkshoorn recited some of his own work but also spontaneously poeticized on a number of artworks in his field of vision. The Kröller-Müller museum and Nico Dijkshoorn remained in contact after the festival evening and eventually it was decided to make a personal audio tour, with poems and short texts, for 25 works on permanent display.

Nico Dijkshoorn and the Kröller-Müller museum
Nico Dijkshoorn is a celebrated columnist for publications incl. Voetbal International, HUMO and Metro and is resident poet for De Wereld Draait Door. The collaboration dovetails nicely with the Kröller-Müller museum’s vision, which aims to show that art is inspirational, provocative and intriguing.

The poems and texts can be combined with the regular (art historical) tour, whereby you can constantly choose between the different forms of information.

From 13 January 2012 all go visit the Kröller-Müller museum!
