Art
The art collection built up by Hans van Veggel over the past two decades is one of a kind. The collection in the Netherlands has been titled ‘gesammtkunstwerk’ as part of the beautiful estate in Wassenaar that has been created in light of realizing this unique place of art and architecture. The collection is quite diverse – from Nouveau réalisme to Zero, from Pop to Minimal Art – but its emphasis is on abstract works from the 1960s. These works have one thing in common. They reflect a fascination with the depiction of a boundless space that invites tranquillity and contemplation. It is this specific focus that lends the collection its coherence.
