Apertura en 1968 y primeros años

La galería de Ámsterdam Art & Project , dirigida por Geert van Beijeren y Adriaan van Ravesteijn ,
abrió en septiembre de 1968 en la casa paterna de Van Ravesteijn [1] en Richard Wagnerstraat en
Amsterdam-Zuid .

La primera exposición fue con la escultora alemana Charlotte Posenenske y la segunda sobre el
dúo de arquitectos y diseñadores holandeses Jan Slothouber y William Pars Graatsma . Esto llamó
la atención debido a los dos primeros boletines de Art & Project, el ciento por ciento de ellos
enviados a nivel nacional. [2] El enfoque inicial se centró en la investigación arquitectónica y otros
expositores tempranos incluyeron al Gruppe X, Paul Schuitema y Aldo van den Nieuwelaar . [3]

Inicialmente, la galería estaba abierta solo durante las horas de la noche y los fines de semana;
más tarde también por la tarde. No se enviaron invitaciones; no hubo vernissage . También en
1968 apareció el primer número de Art & Project Bulletin , una revista a través de la cual la galería
construyó una red artística y permitió a los artistas tener "exposiciones por correo". En los
primeros años traían unas seis exposiciones al año. [4]

A partir de mayo de 1969, la galería se centró en artistas conceptuales , como Stanley Brouwn ,
Daniel Buren , Jan Dibbets , Gilbert & George, Douglas Huebler , Sol LeWitt y Lawrence Weiner .
[5] En marzo de 1970, Gilbert & George repitieron en la galería de Van Beijeren y Van Ravesteijn su
famosa actuación Posing on Stairs como estatuas vivientes en el Stedelijk Museum unos meses
antes.

Van Breestraat 18, Ámsterdam y Amberes

En 1971 la galería se trasladó a Van Breestraat 18, cerca del Stedelijk Museum y justo enfrente de la
galería Riekje Swart , la otra galería de arte contemporáneo de Ámsterdam con proyección
internacional. En 1973, Art & Project se mudó a la cercana Willemsparkweg 36, donde
permanecería durante los siguientes seis años.

In 1973 also, the gallery opened an art space in Antwerp in cooperation with the Brussels gallery
MTL (led by Fernand Spillemaeckers). In this gallery, named Art & Project / MTL, eleven solo
exhibitions were staged in 1973 and 1974. Other galleries that Van Beijeren and Van Ravesteijn
were in close contact with, included Konrad Fischer in Düsseldorf, Yvonne Lambert in Paris,
Sperone in Turin, Jack Wendler in London and Claire Copley in Los Angeles.[6]

Prinsengracht 785

From 1979 until 1989 the gallery was based at Prinsengracht

785, after which it moved to Slootdorp, a remote village in the
North of the Netherlands. The gallery closed in December
2001. Geert van Beijeren died a few years later.

Artists

For more than 30 years, Art & Project was one of the
Netherlands' major platforms of contemporary art. From the
start of the gallery, it supported an international group of
artists that was mostly associated with Minimal Art,

Conceptual Art and Land Art.
(1990-2001)
The following artists were involved with the gallery (and the
bulletin): Barry Flanagan, Douglas Huebler, Lawrence Weiner,
Sol LeWitt, Robert Barry, Carl Andre, Alan Charlton (artist), Joseph Kosuth, Richard Long,
Andrew Lord, Stanley Brouwn, Gilbert & George, Alighiero Boetti, Francesco Clemente, Allen
Ruppersberg, Marcel Broodthaers, John Baldessari, Hamish Fulton, Jan Dibbets, Ian Wilson, Bas
Jan Ader, Han Schuil and Daniel Buren.

Among the gallery's clients were important art collectors in the Netherlands and Belgium such as
Edy de Wilde (director Stedelijk Museum, 1963-1985), Benno Premsela, Martin and Mia Visser,
Frits and Agnes Becht, Herman and Nicole Daled, and Anton and Annick Herbert.[7]

The art magazine

Between September 1968 and November 1989 Geert van
Beijeren & Adriaan van Ravesteijn published 156 bulletins of
the influential art magazine Art & Project. The first magazines
were merely announcements of upcoming exhibitions in the
Art & Project gallery. Later editions more and more took the
form of art objects.

Art & Project was meant to be a monthly magazine but was not
always published regularly (17 in 1972; only 8 in 1973).
Between June 1983 and December 1984 no magazines were
published at all. The magazine was printed in The Hague by
printshop Delta in an edition of 800. The format was generally
A3, which was folded and thus formed four A4 pages. It was
generally printed black ink on white paper. In some cases the
standard format was abandoned, for example:

Bulletin 24 (Daniel Buren, 1970): Not really published.

Bulletin 43 (Sol LeWitt, September 1971): Folded in 48

rectangles.
Bulletin 62 (Alighiero Boetti, November 1972): Format 28,6
x 42 cm.
 Bulletin 68 (Douglas Huebler, August 1973): Format 29.7 x 63 cm and folded in three.
Bulletin 75 (Daniel Buren, March 1974): Printed on vellum.
Bulletin 107 (Francesco Clemente, May 1978): Printed on orange paper.

The magazine was distributed free of charge to about 400 addresses (mainly of artists, galleries
and curators). The remainder of each edition could be picked up at the gallery in Amsterdam. In
some cases distribution (and even printing) took place in other cities:

Bulletin 11 (Stanley Brouwn, September 1969): Distributed from Düsseldorf, as an

announcement for the exhibition "Prospect 69" in Kunsthalle Düsseldorf.
Bulletin 20 (Gilbert & George, March 1970) and 21 (Yutaka Matsuzawa, March 1970): Printed
and distributed in Tokyo.
Bulletin 56 (Jan Dibbets, June 1972): Distributed from Venice.

Lasting influence
Along with the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and Gallery Riekje Swart, Art & Project was a centre
for renewal of contemporary art in the Netherlands and in Europe from the late 1960s until its
closing down in 2001. The gallery's reputation helped to establish the city of Amsterdam as "an
international nexus of intense art activities" in the 1960s and 70s.[8] Several museums and
galleries have dedicated exhibitions commemorating the Art & Project legacy. In 2003/04, an
exhibition on the role of Art & Project took place at the Musee d'art moderne et contemporain in
Geneva. In 2009, the Museum of Modern Art in New York City organized an exhibition named "In
& Out of Amsterdam" with mainly works that had been donated to the museum by Van Beijeren
and Van Ravesteijn in 2007.[9] In 2010, an international symposium took place in Wiels, a centre
for contemporary art in Brussels, focusing on the role of the galleries MTL (Brussels) and Art &
Project (Amsterdam).

Van Beijeren and Van Ravesteijn, during more than 30 years collecting, acquired an impressive art
collection that during the 1990s and 2000s has gradually found its way to various Dutch
museums, as well as New York's MoMa. Original Art & Project bulletins have become much
sought-after documents. The gallery's archive, as well as the couple's personal archive, measuring
92 meters, has been donated to the Rijksdienst voor het Cultureel Erfgoed (RCE), the Dutch
national heritage organisation, and will be accessible to the public from 2014 onward.[10]
