Campaign image PAN Amsterdam 2024
Commenting on her work, Nynke Tynagel says: 'PAN and I go back years. I loved being seduced there, as a visitor but also as a participant, by the diverse range of artworks from different disciplines: from artisan masterpieces to intriguing art and curiosities from the past and present. This year I was allowed to design the campaign image, quite an honour. I soon knew what it was going to be. In my work, I often imagine a character, someone with a particular profession, a fiery passion or just a character that I then portray using his or her living environment and personal belongings. In this case, it became an avid collector couple. Their collection of art, antiques and design, shown here stylistically, is eclectic and driven by emotion rather than strict categories. You will come across them again this year at PAN in search of new acquisitions. They live in the midst of their impressive collection and still think they can free up some space in their
crowded private Wunderkammer.'

Spectaculaire verkopen
De belangstelling van het publiek was breed, van hedendaagse kunst, design en fotografie tot oude meesters, antiek en sieraden. Zo verkocht Endlich Antiquairs drie hedendaagse zilverwerken van Daan Brouwer aan het Drents Museum in Assen. Kunstgalerij Albricht verkocht topstukken van onder meer Jan Sluijters, Carel Willink en Leo Gestel, de laatste aan een anonieme weldoener die het kocht voor museum Singer Laren. Floris van Wanroij verkocht het paneeltje dat hij ontdekte met het enige portret van Justinus van Nassau, de buitenechtelijke zoon van Willem van Oranje. Ook andriesse – eyck galerie was tevreden en verkocht goed, waaronder drie werken van Diana Scherer en twee monumentale werken van Koen Taselaar. De ongetwijfeld jongste kunstverzamelaar kwam bij Rondom 1920: een 9-jarig jongetje kocht er een zilveren theeduimpje van J.A. de Haas uit 1803 voor € 200,-, waarvoor hij een jaar lang had gespaard nadat hij het op de vorige PAN had gezien.
Volgende PAN Amsterdam van 24 november tot en met 1 december 2024.
This year we’ve invited Miluska van 't Lam, Harper's Bazaar editor in chief, to ‘star’ ✨ five works at the 36th edition of the PAN Amsterdam.
Miluska celebrates female artists and gallerists at the PAN Amsterdam 2023. She selected five works to shine some extra light on at this year's fair.
1. At Bildhalle Zurich + Amsterdam (stand 43) Miluska selected Ethereal by Bastiaan Woudt. The gallery is run by a female gallerist, Mirjam Cavegn and director dr. Phil. Christian’s Hoefert, whose curation Miluska trusts completely. At PAN they show work by Bastiaan Woudt who made the newest cover of Harper's Bazaar: the winter issue, highlighting Women of the Year, with singer Karsu Dönmez as cover star.
2. At EENWERK (stand 31) gallery Miluska selected Expansive Reality by Sheila Hicks. She says the PAN can be proud to have a booth dedicated to this amazing female artist. This grand old lady of textile art transformed herself at 89 into a well respected artist who is celebrated by all major museums. Tip: ask in the booth for the book on Sheila, made by another female icon: Irma Boom.
3. At Daatselaar Fine Art & Antiques (stand 40), one of her favorite female run galleries, she selected Le col de Fourrure by Jean-Pierre Cassigneul. An artist that is inspired by Kees van Dongen. So is Miluska, especially after visiting the Kees van Dongen exhibition at Singer Laren together with her daughter who studies art history.
4. At Inez Stodel Jewelry (stand 22) Miluska selected a brooch ‘Pense a moi’. This gallery is the place to find pre-loved jewelry. It is run by mother and daughter Leonore and Inez. The name of the brooch makes Miluska think of self love but also love for the other. And that is what the world today needs, more than ever. “Love is always the answer, always.”
5. At Rademakers Gallery (stand 3) Miluska selected Blue Goddess, 2023 by Yamuna Forzani. This is the first time her work is shown at the PAN Amsterdam. Yamuna’s collection is designed not to exclude any individual but to be genderful, celebrating the multiplicity of roles and identities that we embody within social structures.
This year we’ve invited Ronald Ockhuysen, director of the VandenEnde Foundation, to ‘star’ ✨ five works at the 36th edition of the PAN Amsterdam.
“Art has many functions: it provides insight, works as therapy and offers the opportunity to escape from the issues of the day. Especially in these times, full of polarization, anger and incomprehension, art is the ideal hiding place. It makes it possible to muse for a while, and to get a moment of peace of mind.”
He selected five works that bring a moment of peace of mind.
At Booij Arts, Fine Art - Rare Items (stand 80) he selected a Linocut ‘Musée Municipal D’art Moderne Ceret’ by Pablo Picasso. For Picasso, applied art also deserved devotion and beauty. This poster is so much more than an announcement: it is a work that you can look at for hours.
At Galerie Fontana (stand 74) Ronald selected Theater #10 by Ruud van Empel. The artist is a master of latent unease. In his recent work, he explores nature through digital and analogue manipulation. The result is an enchanting landscape that feels uncanny at the same time.
At Hein A.M. Klaver Kunsthandel (stand 69) Ronald selected 'Portrait of a woman en profile’ by Thérèse Schwartze. Thérèse Schwartze (1851-1918) can be considered the most successful female Dutch artist of her time. Schwartze was known for her fast working method. According to an estimate from the year after her death, she made about 1000 drawings, pastels and paintings over the course of her career, which lasted roughly 40 years. And despite her fast pace of work, her portraits are extremely sensitive.
At Galerie Wouter van Leeuwen (stand 72) Ronald selected Burton Way by Marie Jose Jongerius. Los Angeles is the city of illusions and palm trees. Marie-José Jongerius makes it clear that these palm trees will soon also be an illusion: the iconic trees have been planted and will not survive due to climate change. In this way, these beautiful photos are also an ode to transience.
At BorzoGallery / The Mayor Gallery (stand 36) he selected TK1017 3/8-60 by Tadaaki Kywayama. He is a master of minimalism, who passed away this summer at the age of 91. The Japanese, who worked and lived in New York, made a name for himself with paintings that provide no guidance. As a result, everyone can see what he or she wants. In this way, this work gives free rein to the imagination.
This year we’ve invited Jan Dirk van der Burg, photographer and filmmaker, to ‘star’ ✨ five works at the 36th edition of the PAN Amsterdam.
“These artworks are all connected but not by style or medium. The works require you to take a long and good look to understand what you are actually seeing.” He selected five works for you to take a better look at.
At Contour Gallery (stand 25) Jan Dirk selected Frozen Time, Het Singel by Lars van den Brink. We see classic beauty of the city of Amsterdam in a 'where is Waldo' jacket. Secretly you see everything you hate and love about Amsterdam. A stream of zombie tourists, a lost supper and a parked beer bike, now banned in the center of Amsterdam. If Hieronymus Bosch had had a camera, he would have taken this picture.
At Duende Art Projects (stand 64) he selected Le Choix d’Avenir by Thierry Oussou. Thiery Oussou's work from Benin, ‘choose the future,’ has a wonderful contrast in the fragile, curving canvas and the straightforward imagery where life comes at you in a snap. A work of art that gets under your skin.
At Flatland Gallery (stand 96) he selected Kawa no nagare #5 by Kim Boske. This unique work incorporates indigo photo dots on a washi handmade paper. For this work she kept a living indigo organism alive at her studio in a blue barrel. Those have since died, fortunately we still have the photos.
At Roof- A Gallery (stand C) he selected Destroyed House Gaza by Marjan Teeuwen. Teeuwen builds carefully stacked installations all over the world. She demolishes what she finds necessary, digs down some more if necessary and then rebuilds all kinds of things. What we see in the photo is a photographic result of monk's work. This work was made in 2017 in a destroyed house in Gaza. Destroy and rebuild, more relevant than ever.
At andriesse - eyck galerie (stand 27) he selected Hyper Rhizome #2-3 by Diana Scherer. Diane Scherer lets the organic and mathematical root patterns do their work in the places where she lets them grow. Scherer reminds us that for true enchanting beauty we must be underground. We get that here in a framed carpet of roots. And don't forget to look at the soil below.
Visit the PAN Amsterdam until November 26.

In 2022 notable additions included several foreign top dealers, such as Rafaël Valls Gallery and the Weiss Gallery from London, and Koetser Gallery from Zürich. The newcomer’s pavilion, Walls & Cabinets, a permanent part of PAN since 2021, featured participants like Martin van Zomeren, Kersgallery, Jonathan den Otter, Duende Art Projects, MIAP, Joost van den Bergh, and the Ravenstijn Gallery. Two unique objects shown at PAN 2022 were an Egyptian wooden mummy portrait from the second century A.D., showcased by antiquarian and archaeologist Mieke Zilverberg, and a fifty-thousand-year-old mammoth leg discovered in the North Sea by fishers, displayed by Stone Gallery. Both items were sold during the fair.
The Princessehof National Museum of Ceramics also participated the fair and unveiled their brand-new publication Art and Cooking. Cookbook Princessehof National Museum of Ceramics, featuring recipes created by nationally and internationally renowned chefs, culinary writers, bakers and other foodies especially for tableware from the museum’s collections. It truly combined ceramics and culinary art for the first time. The presentation was followed by an extraordinary culinary tasting event.
The PAN Podium continued to draw a large audience during the fair. In the specially designated space, daily lectures were held on various themes, such as Masterful Materials, Art, Ceramics, and Cooking, Art Connects, and Desirable Design. Inspiring talks were given by Prof. Dr. Wendy Gers (curator of modern and contemporary ceramics at Princessehof) discussing sustainable ceramics and the future of the medium and by Merel van Helsdingen (founder Nxt Museum) and Anne de Jong (Upstream Gallery) about women in tech and the use of New Media Art. Renowned Dutch photographer Jan Dirk van der Burg presented a special ‘PAN-Show’, using his own photographs to explain the Stendhal Syndrome, a psychological disorder that occurs when someone is completely overwhelmed by the beauty of art.
On the final day of the fair, PAN collaborated with IMC Weekendschool and children’s book author Manon Berns to organize a scavanger hunt at the fair for young children, introducing them to the wonders of the art world in an engaging manner.
We are very much looking forward to the 36th edition of PAN Amsterdam from 19 November to 26 November 2023 at RAI Amsterdam.

The broad and eclectic mix of exhibitors ranges from leading Old Master specialists such as the Rafael Valls Gallery and Weiss Gallery from London, and the Koetser Gallery from Zürich alongside contemporary Dutch furniture designer Piet Hein Eek. Antiques from the distinguished Limburg Antiquairs, art deco silver from Rondom 1920 and exquisite 20th century jewellery from Epoque Fine Jewels feature alongside POP, ZERO & Nouveau Realisme from the Borzo Gallery and The Mayor Gallery.
The newcomers’ pavilion, Walls & Cabinets, welcomes galleries Martin van Zomeren, Kersgallery and the Ravenstijn Gallery as first timers on the fair. In the daily talks on the Pan Podium, designer Richard Hutten will highlight his work, artist Jan Dirk van den Burg will give a performance and porcelain, museums and sustainable design will be in the spotlight.
Mark Grol, Managing Director of the PAN: “PAN is back and better than ever, after the last two turbulent years. With 15 more exhibitors compared to last year – when we had amazingly high visitor
numbers and excellent sales – nearly all regular exhibitors have chosen to return and we have an exciting line up of new exhibitors. This, along with an exciting programme of events should make this anniversary edition of PAN Amsterdam one to remember. For the expected 35,000 plus visitors we are hoping this year’s PAN will offer a unforgettable spectacle or an actual ‘ArtCity’ as the architect Winy Maas has depicted in our iconic campaign image for this year.
PAN campaign image 2022 by Winy Maas: ‘ArtCity. Everything is Art’
Each year the PAN asks a leading figure in the art world to design a campaign image to be used for marketing the fair. This year Winy Maas, architect and co-founder of MVRDV, has designed PAN’s image for 2022: “ArtCity. Everything is Art”. Inspired by the idea of regarding anything in the city as an object of art. “Whether it’s a bridge, a building, a park or a child’s chalk drawing on the pavement: everything has artistic value”. In the campaign image Winy depicts a city where every nook and cranny is piled high with art objects, “spaces where everyone and their ideas are welcome: an inclusive city brimming with art”.
Mark Grol, algemeen directeur van PAN Amsterdam: "Het was voor iedereen tot op het laatste moment ontzettend spannend of de beurs door kon gaan. Met de ruime opzet van de beurs hebben we goed kunnen anticiperen op de coronamaatregelen en hebben we met aangepaste openingstijden er samen met de deelnemers een groot succes van gemaakt. De verkopen zijn mede door het sterke en brede aanbod zeer goed verlopen. Naast particulieren verzamelaars hebben ook verschillende musea hun aanbod verrijkt met spectaculaire stukken."
Spectaculaire verkopen
PAN-dubutant Amsterdam Watch Company heeft op de beurs een polshorloge met 's werelds kleinste mechanische uurwerk verkocht. Dit Caliber 101 van Jaeger-leCoultre werd geïntroduceerd in 1929 en meet slechts 14 x 4,8 x 3,4 millimeter. Ondanks de miniscule afmetingen bestaat het uurwerk uit 98 onderdelen. Een vergelijkbaar horloge, met hetzelfde caliber, werd gedragen door Queen Elizabeth II tijdens haar kroning in 1953. Ook voor LAWRENCE STEIGRAD FINE ARTS uit New York was de beurs een groot succes. Het stuk 'Moeder met zoon en dochter, gesigneerd en gedateerd 1641, olie op paneel 111 x 147 cm' van kunstenaar DIRCK DIRCKSZ. SANTVOORT (Amsterdam 1609-1680) is verkocht aan een kunstliefhebber.
Ook Hotei Japanese Prints wist bijzondere stukken te verkopen. Een dubbel zesslags kamerscherm van Hiroshi Yoshida (1876-1950) is aangekocht door het Museum für Ostasiatische Kunst in Keulen en het Museum Volkenkunde te Leiden verrijkte haar collectie met twee schilderingen van de hand van Kawahara Keiga (1786-1860). Ook voor de Fraeylemaborg in Slochteren was PAN Amsterdam een succes. Met steun van de Vereniging Rembrandt en De Gerrit van Houten Stichting heeft Fraeylemaborg van zilverspecialist Jacob J. Roosjen een unieke zilveren Groninger kom kunnen verwerven. Het betreft een zeer vroege, gedeeltelijk vuurvergulde zilveren kom, vervaardigd door Doe Freese in 1610. Het pronkstuk is gegraveerd met vier alliantiewapens van Groninger families en de naam Fouwel Rengers Dochter Ten Post A(nn)o 1610. Janknegt Gallery heeft namens het HVA Cultuurfonds de bijzondere opdracht gekregen om het beeld 'ZIT' van Erik Buijs te laten uitvergroten naar 3 meter breed. Het beeld zal door het HVA Cultuurfonds worden geschonken aan de gemeente Ede voor de door hen geïnitieerde stadsbeelden tuin in het centrum van Ede.
14 tot en met 21 november in de RAI Amsterdam, steeds van 11.00 tot 18.00 uur
De 34ste editie van de grootste nationale kunstbeurs keert van zondag 14 november tot en met zondag 21 november na twee jaar terug in de RAI. De aangekondigde nieuwe coronamaatregelen maken dat PAN Amsterdam in de RAI, als doorstroomlocatie, met aangepaste openingstijden kan doorgaan: iedere dag van 11.00 tot 18.00 uur geopend. PAN Amsterdam en de RAI zorgen er samen voor dat bezoekers een veilig bezoek kunnen brengen aan de beurs. Bezoekers van PAN Amsterdam moeten bij binnenkomst een geldig coronatoegangsbewijs tonen waaruit vaccinatie, herstel of een negatieve testuitslag - niet ouder dan 24 uur - blijkt.
The 34th edition of the art, design and antiques fair PAN Amsterdam will take place in the RAI Amsterdam from Sunday 14 to Sunday 21 November. The National Art Fair PAN Amsterdam offers an extremely high-quality and versatile range of more than 110 participants. These art, design and antique dealers represent the top of the industry in The Netherlands. With experienced veterans such as A. Aardewerk Antiquair Jeweler, Kunsthandel P. de Boer and BorzoGallery, and enthusiastic new participants such as Bildhalle, Willem Baars Projects and St1 gallery. There are also a number of top foreign traders on the eclectic PAN fair present.
Mark Grol, General Manager PAN Amsterdam: “After an unprecedentedly successful exhibition in 2019, and a year of reflection in 2021 we will look ahead with a positive outlook together with traders. Full of energy
and confidence in the future. The resilience and flexibility of the entire culture industry has shown during the recent period. The Belgian art historian Paul Dujardin calls art the vaccine in the post-corona era. We are therefore pleased to announce that former artistic director and director of De Nederlandse Opera Pierre Audi the campaign image for the upcoming edition of PAN Amsterdam will develop in collaboration with photographer duo Maria Bodil.”
“More and more people are looking for meaningful moments and investments. They no longer only want to buy, but instead delve deeper and be inspired. A need that we meet with a diverse range of art, antiques and design and a varied fringe programming at the upcoming PAN Amsterdam like to fulfill. We look forward to working with our partners and participants on an exceptional, inspiring edition.”
Sponsors
The Swiss bank J. Safra Sarasin (Luxembourg) SA is the main sponsor of the upcoming edition and will offer an extensive program during the fair. Paardekooper is also sponsor of the fair. Taschen and FloatScans will be presented in the Business Pavilion this year.

PAN Amsterdam is na uitvoerig overleg verplaatst naar najaar 2021. De 34ste editie, die gepland stond van 22 tot en met 29 november 2020, vindt plaats van 13 (opening) tot en met 21 november 2021.
In ruggespraak met deelnemers en andere betrokken partijen heeft PAN Amsterdam een gedegen inventarisatie gemaakt en alle mogelijke aspecten gewogen bij de complexe keuze hoe om te gaan met de editie 2020 in de huidige situatie. Verschillende scenario's, waaronder een kortere, kleinere beurs zijn hierbij uitgewerkt. De gezondheidsrisico's voor alle betrokken, de financiële risico's voor exposanten en partners, en de huidige veranderlijke regelgeving rondom grootschalige evenementen zijn de belangrijkste overwegingen om de beurs te verplaatsen.
Mark Grol is appointed as managing director of PAN Amsterdam. Grol, who was nominated by the Board of Trustees and council of commissioners, will therefore take over from Patrick van Maris, who has held this post at PAN since 2015.
Mark Grol (born in 1970) studied art history in Groningen. He has been involved in the international commercial art market since 1995. Between 1996 and 2000 he lived and worked in Hong Kong, where he was general manager of an art gallery specializing in modern and impressionist European art. In 2000 he returned to Amsterdam and joined Sotheby’s. Among other things he served as an expert in nineteenth-century paintings. Mark Grol was the auction house’s managing director in Amsterdam and Paris from 2006 to 2015. Between 2015 and 2017 he was responsible for ten fine and decorative arts departments at Sotheby’s London. Until recently he was managing director of the prestigious gallery and publisher Cahiers d’Art in Paris.
‘For over three decades PAN Amsterdam has been the biggest Dutch fair for art, antiques and design,’ says chair of the Foundation’s Board of Trustees Ad ‘s-Gravesande. ‘The quality of the art and the expertise of the exhibitors set the fair apart. A few years ago The Board of Trustees embarked on an innovative pathway, and we will continue this under Mark Grol’s inspiring daily leadership. With hismany years’ experience in the art world, his extensive network plus his outstanding knowledge of art and the art market, he will carry on developing PAN’s identity, achieve its ambitions for the future and strengthen its market position. Mark Grol will also be tasked with redefining the services relationship between PAN Amsterdam and TEFAF in the medium term. This means that the management contract with TEFAF in its current form will end in due course. This decision was taken in consultation with Patrick van Maris, TEFAF’s CEO, who until today was also managing director of PAN Amsterdam. Van Maris, too, advocates a gradual transition to a new relationship with PAN Amsterdam. The 2019 fair is being organized under the TEFAF umbrella. The goal is to stage the fair ourselves for the first time in 2020.’
‘I know PAN Amsterdam very well. It’s a tremendous fair that’s still vigorous and relevant,’ says Mark Grol. ‘The Dutch art market is its own ecosystem, and PAN Amsterdam plays an important part in it. Here, in a city fizzing with creativity and innovation, I’m taking over the helm of a splendid fair’s further development in a changing art market with, in due course, our own new team. After nearly eight years of working abroad, I’m very proud to be putting my shoulder to the wheel back here again.’
After a successful final weekend, PAN Amsterdam had welcomed more than 40,000 visitors to the thirty-second fair. The fair for art, antiques and design with 110 exhibitors from the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Italy had already recorded good sales during the opening weekend and the trend continued throughout the week and the closing weekend.
‘Three years ago, we embarked on a new course. As a result, we now see that visitors can find PAN Amsterdam and appreciate the items on offer, which have all been vetted by our vetting committees. Sales are good across the board,’ said managing director Patrick van Maris. Chairman Roberto Payer said ‘This year the link between PAN and Amsterdam and the collaboration with photographer Erwin Olaf were the major highlights. His individual and revealing approach produced fantastic results. The wonderful images for the marketing campaign and the exhibition at PAN Amsterdam strengthened the link with the city. I’m proud of the result.’
A recently discovered work by Piet Mondrian (1872-1944) can be seen at this year’s PAN Amsterdam. Willem de Winter, the well-known presenter of the TV programme ‘Tussen Kunst en Kitsch’ and owner of Kunsthandel E.J. Wisselingh & Co recognized theMondrian during an appraisal. It is a 1901 portrait of Elisabeth Sophia Maria Cavalini (1873-1933) from Mondrian’s realistic period. The painting, measuring 73 x 53 cm, was previously unknown, has never been shown before and is not described in any catalogue raisonné.
The painting is now on the market and on view to the public for the first time. It is rare for new works to be added to Mondrian’s oeuvre.
How does the Art Loss Register work?
The Art Loss Register maintains a database that includes 500,000 items registered as lost, stolen or subject to a dispute. We were established in 1990 as a partnership between the art trade and insurance industry to protect the trade and its clients from inadvertently handling stolen property. We receive reports of losses every day from law enforcement, insurers, museums, the trade and collectors worldwide. We then compare objects on the market against the database to protect the art trade and its clients from handling stolen goods.
What type of items are registered on the database?
The ALR can register any types of lost or disputed items, so long as they are unique – from the more obvious paintings, furniture and antiquities, as well as silver, clocks, medals and coins, instruments, collectibles, jewellery and watches – to name a few.
What happens if the ALR discovers a lost or disputed item?
If an object is matched to one registered on the ALR database, we put the current holder in touch with the person or institution that notified us of the claim. The issue can thereby be resolved directly by the police or a civil claim, or by negotiation between the two (or more) parties. We work on these cases every day worldwide, often assisting with negotiations or mediation, or acting on behalf of the claimant to verify and pursue a claim.
How does the ALR work at PAN Amsterdam?
The ALR is included in the vetting at PAN Amsterdam, where we search exhibited objects at the fair. PAN Amsterdam is one of 15 fairs around the world that subscribe to this service, also including the three TEFAF and three Art Basel fairs. At the fair, the ALR compares each object on the fair stand against the database, and check to see if it is similar to any recorded on the database as lost, stolen or subject to a dispute. If an object is matched to one on the database, it is removed from sale until the issue is resolved. We are available to PAN exhibitors and visitors to carry out these checks at the fair, and to provide ALR Certificates as evidence of this ‘due diligence’. The Certificate is provided once the ALR’s has conducted some extra provenance research, to see if there might be any issues in the history of the item. This is particularly relevant in identifying items that may have been misappropriated in the period 1933-45, such as those confiscated from Jewish families or subject to forced sales.
If you have any questions regarding the Art Loss Register, or how we work at PAN Amsterdam, visit our booth P4 at the fair or go to our website www.artloss.com.
PAN Podium offers a cultural programming to visitors of PAN Amsterdam. For this years edition the fair has a collaboration with 11 cultural insitiutions. This years theme is 'From Private Collection towards a Museum'.

For the thirty-second edition of the fair PAN Amsterdam (18-25 November 2018), the internationally renowned, Amsterdam-based photographer is creating eight new portraits with star objects displayed by PAN exhibitors. He is photographing eight objects from exhibitors’ collections against the background of the dynamic city of Amsterdam with its residents. These photographs will be shown with the objects in the special exhibition on the floor of the fair.
He is using this series to presentrent striking contrasts in location or between the portayed and the artwork, reinforcing the link that has been forged between the fair and the city as the centre of Dutch art and the art market. A selection of these photographs will be used for the campaign image for this year’s PAN Amsterdam.
PAN Amsterdam began commissioning photographers to create a campaign image in 2016. Eva Roovers and Koen Hauser preceded Erwin Olaf. It is the first time the special exhibition and the campaign image have been created by a single artist.
