Tandheelkunde Groep Nederland became a member of the Business Club of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen.

Why chose to make a business commitment?

Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is a museum of free thinkers with a strong humanist culture. The collection, which is partly made up of works of art donated by more than 1,700 collectors from Rotterdam, says a lot about the history of the museum and its future. Tandheelkunde Groep Nederland’s desire to be part of this has led to the housing of part of the Lakeside Collection in its own compartment in the Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen.

Favorite artwork in the museum collection?

Maurizio Cattelan , ‘Untitled (Manhole)’ 2001, baptized by the artist as Mr. Boijmans. Cattelan, (self-taught) artist, knows how to excite the viewer with his provocative, sarcastic but above all humorous works of art. The work ‘Manhole’ shows a hilarious self-portrait of the artist as a burglar, who has found his way upwards balancing by climbing on an accumulation of file cabinet, wooden pallet, moving boxes and a chair.
