Job Reuten, Painting, Trilogy Dutch World Heritage 3/3,

What Is Happening Here Gallery


Amsterdam, Netherlands

WIHH Gallery is a 2200m2 gallery space located in a historical monument building, that used to be the ABNAMRO bank on the flower market; a place where the former queen of Holland, had her own private vault.


Located in the center of Amsterdam, a massive space like this is a must see historical treasure. Visit the bank vaults, and witness amazing art made possible by the symbiotic creation of the brothers Job & Joris Jan Reuten; who curates the space as creator, decorator, actor, performer, and artist.


"Life-play, being creative, making, improvise, recycle.


Help, see, smell, listen, wonder, play, invent, inspire, connect."


The WIHH Gallery's  core ethos:


" It's a playgrounds' feeling."


Inclusive and open, while exploring the senses, and sharing in the experience of art in a variety of expressions. 


A brief timeline of the building history in Dutch for cultural accuracy =D

We believe it a perfect opportunity to connect with a Dutch friend, to ask them to translate this for you!
