Press

Welcome to the press page of Cobra Museum of Modern Art Amstelveen. Press material (press releases, press image overview) from the exhibitions can be found here. The press image overview shows which images are available and can be used royalty-free (unless otherwise indicated) during the exhibition, provided that the correct captions and copyrights are included. These photographs can only be used for editorial (and non-commercial) purposes, such as a review or promotion of the exhibition.

In the folders you will find high-resolution images and the caption document. Some images are temporarily exempt from copyright. This is stated in the caption document. You do, however, always have to use the correct and complete captions.

We remind you of your own responsibility when publishing images. You must provide the correct captions and have the correct rights to publish images. The Cobra Museum is never the owner of the image rights of the works of art themselves, and rarely of the portraits of the artists.

Museum Cobra

Museum Cobra focuses on the art and ideas of the Cobra movement. Cobra is part of the canon of art history, but the ‘spirit’ of Cobra is still very much alive. An alternative culture, based on international solidarity and creativity, is perhaps more relevant than ever in the world we live in today. Museum Cobra therefore actively links the collection and history of Cobra to contemporary artists, modern art movements and current affairs.

 

Dora Tuynman – Parijs, New York, Amsterdam

On March 22, 2025, Museum Cobra opens the first comprehensive retrospective of Dutch artist Dora Tuynman (1926-1979). A tribute to one of the most underexposed artists of the 20th century, the exhibition offers a deep insight into her work. From her early figurative landscapes to her later abstract paintings-with a number of works now on display for the first time-visitors are introduced to a multifaceted and remarkable body of work.
