About the Culturele Wallen
The Cultural Wallen Route on Saturday, 7th September, marks the launch of Cultural Wallen, a new collective that unites and showcases art and culture in Amsterdam's historic city centre. By making the offerings more visible, combining forces, and establishing new collaborations, the neighbourhood is regaining its creative identity. This also encourages the people of Amsterdam to return to the creative heart of our city.
About the exhibition
The Oude Kerk presents a large-scale, context-specific exhibition by artist Navid Nuur. Nuur invites you to experience the church through the senses. He peels back the history of Amsterdam’s oldest building to reveal experiences that are focused on the here and now: on seeing, smelling, hearing, earth, air, and light. At the same time, an important part of the exhibition will only come to an end in a hundred years.
