Title: Bedrijfscollecties in Nederland =
Description: This publication approaches the subject from various perspectives to gain greater insight into the dynamics behind corporate collections in the Netherlands and their impact on the art world. Besides a scholarly analysis of the phenomenon and a comparison with developments abroad, individuals from the Dutch art world who are involved with corporate collections share their experiences and views. This reveals how opinions are shaped by individual desires and agendas, and how diverse perspectives stem from this. The question that returns repeatedly concerns the relationship between the intrinsic value of the art and the corporate goals that these collections are often supposed to serve. Which tasks do the various parties regard as the preserve of Dutch corporate collections and how is art served by this? The outcome is a fascinating and stimulating survey of an undeservedly underexposed phenomenon within the Dutch art world.
