By combining knowledge of architecture, landscape design, and sustainability, along with expertise in the leisure industry, the initiators want to reignite the enthusiasm of both young and old people for the Brabant landscape. How can Brabant find the balance between idyll and progress?Īt the initiative of Midpoint Brabant, MVRDV and the Van Gogh Homeland Foundation developed a meaningful experience that aims to make the public more aware of the region’s coming challenges. Given the complications of the Dutch nitrogen crisis, permit applications for projects in Natura 2000 protected areas have come to a standstill. The number of floods is increasing while farmers, cities, industry, and nature lovers are fighting over the available space.

Most of the collection is in an unrestored and original condition. Palmen was starting the cars on a regular basis to keep the engines from being seized. The collection was stored in a church and two dry but dusty warehouses. He had a refined taste and extensive knowledge of rare and special cars as he was professionally dealing in similar cars from the mid 60’s before he started collecting. Over the years his collection grew substantially. Palmen started collecting cars approximately 40 years ago with a yellow Lancia B20 being the first car.

The stance adopted by contemporary artists that seeks to go beyond our preconceptions in a creative way is also connected to this exploration of these unknowns. In each of these disciplines, researchers are exploring the “unknowns” of the world, delving into history, and making new discoveries and inventions from the past to the future in order to enrich our perception of the world. It is a composite field with connections to all subjects, including language and literature, mathematics, science, and social studies. Since the 1990s, when the development of contemporary art began to be considered from multiple perspectives in different parts of the world, we have been seeing that contemporary art today goes far beyond the framework of arts and crafts and fine art in the school classroom.
