Art and sculptures in Rotterdam

Rotterdam Art & Sculpture

Rotterdam’s art landscape spans from the Old Masters at Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen to provocative modern sculptures like Paul McCarthy’s 'Santa Claus.' The city’s history is reflected in Ossip Zadkine’s 'The Destroyed City' and the Slavery Monument, while contemporary innovation is visible in the Market Hall’s massive indoor mural. Centered around the Museumpark, this collection includes the Nieuwe Instituut’s architectural exhibits and the ethnographic collections of the World Museum, showcasing Rotterdam’s evolution into a global design hub.
