Museum Rotterdam

Museum Rotterdam was founded in 1905 as Museum of Antiquities, by a bourgeois elite that wanted to educate Rotterdam's growing working class population, attracted by the development of the transit port. It later became the Historical Museum of Rotterdam that glorified Rotterdam´s Golden Age in a time that the modern city centre lacked its previous historical references due to its destruction in the bombardment of 1940. In recent years the museum has changed its aims and ambitions again. The contemporary transnational city, and not the past city, has become central to its museum policies. In 2010 it dropped the ´Historical´ in its name to continue as Museum Rotterdam. Begin 2016 the museum opened a new main location in the historical heart of Rotterdam, adjacent to City Hall. Here the story of Rotterdam, the city with a young heart and an old soul, is told in new ways. See https://museumrotterdam.nl

Willem Bijl, inspired by Rotterdam, paints water, ships, masts, bridges, cranes and picturesque old harbours but also the container terminals and proud contours of Rotterdam's modern architecture. Visit his gallery in the Kleiweg 301 in Rotterdam or check the website: http://www.willem-bijl.nl
