The exhibition takes a look at the concept of love, portraying love as a form of (special) social relationship and commitment. The focus is not on love as ephemeral emotion or passionate feeling, but rather on love as a sign of quality in interpersonal relations.

Frisian artist Jan van der Kooi’s (*1957) more than 150 sketchbooks will be on view for the first time in this exhibition and will be shown alongside a selection of Rembrandt’s landscape etchings.

The exhibition in DAS Forum highlights the missionary and charitable work of the entrepreneurial family Brenninkmeijer.

For this concert, cellist Anouchka Hack and her sister, pianist Katharina Hack, draw inspiration from the exhibition Love – all of the composers whose works will be performed share a deep love for their respective homelands.
