- René Daniëls Workshops Connecting - Een persoonlijke verbinding met kunst 12/05/2012 - 23/09/2012 Sinds twee jaar werkt het Van Abbemuseum samen met het kunstenaarscollectief Connecting. Tijdens de René Daniëls tentoonstelling Een tentoonstelling is ook altijd een deel van een groter geheel verzorgt dit drietal, bestaande uit Remko Leeuw, Karin de Nijs en Bernadette van Loon, interventies. Deze interventies bieden de bezoekers alternatieve mogelijkheden om een intensieve en persoonlijke band met de kunst en het museum aan te gaan. Interventies zijn een soort korte workshops waarbij de individuele bezoeker reageert op wat hij ervaart en hiermee een (tijdelijke) aanvulling op de museumopstelling teweegbrengt. Deze persoonlijke aanvulling kan bestaan uit een voorwerp, een stroom van woorden of gedachten over het proces. De tentoongestelde kunst vormt hierbij het uitgangspunt en Connecting vormt een relatie tussen de bezoeker en dat wat binnen en buiten het museum is, de kunstenaar, en het museum.
