We will visit the Van Abbe Museum, which is one of the most important museums for contemporary art in Europe. Changing exhibitions are being made on a regular base. A great deal of space is destined for the famous museum collection. The collection contains modern classic works by artists such as Picasso, Chagall and Mondrian, the second largest collection of the Russian artist El Lissitzky outside of Russia, but most of all many contemporary art works by artists such as Lily van der Stokker, De Rijke & De Rooij and all works from the exhibition No Ghost Just a Shell (around the Manga figure AnnLee).

Currently, a large part of the museum is dedicated to the exhibition EindhovenIstanbul. In this exhibition, a selection of key artworks is presented drawn from the famous Istanbul Biennial exhibitions of the past 18 years. The exhibits from 40 international artists include large scale installations, video projections, sculpture, painting and drawing.
