About the studio visit programme
Stroom regularly invites curators, artists, and critics from the Netherlands and abroad to conduct studio visits with artists from The Hague who are registered with Stroom. The studio visit offers artists the opportunity to present their work and provides a setting for constructive critical reflection in conversation with an art professional. In this context, it also helps to raise awareness of the artists’ work.
