Guided tours

Walking conversation for individual visitors (Dutch only)

The sculptures, installations, and performances in the exhibition invite you to reflect on the roles we play as museum visitors, as well as in our lives. In this guided tour (Dutch only), you can take on various roles: from playful participant to philosopher, from expert to voyeur. Which role will you choose: will you be a spectator or a puppeteer? Solo, or part of the whole? Will you stay at a distance or dive right in? The choice is yours!

 

Guided tour for groups (in English)  

Visit COME CLOSER as a group! With your family, colleagues, friends, or class. A guide will lead you through the exhibition and invite the group to reflect on the roles we play: in the museum, in life, and perhaps also within the group itself.
