Stedelijk Base shows the development of modern and contemporary art. From new and high-tech 3D-printed vases to the old school iconic paintings, there is something for everyone who loves art. The exhibition follows a chronological order of developments in art and design, with works of Van Gogh and Cézanne at the very beginning. Within this order, thematic zones with related artworks are formed.
