Geschiedenis

Situated in a seventeenth century townhouse, and temporary also in a city palace, WEST has been developing an international program of projects that challenge the public’s perception of art.

"West Den Haag shows contemporary art in the former American embassy designed by Marcel Breuer in the heart of The Hague museum district. West, as an art institute, focuses on the most relevant international developments in the field of the visual arts. West offers artists space and opportunities to develop new work in a social context by situating it in a wider dialogue. Lectures, presentations, performances and discussions underpin the exhibition policy with a theoretical basis. A series of brochures, documentaries and the website complete the activities that bring the different aspects of West together."
