In the early 1930s Henrivan Abbe began to dream of building a center in Eindhoven where its people could be introduced to the mysteries of contemporary art--a place where they could enjoy art. In 1936 he realized this dream by donating to the city the Van Abbemuseum. Sixty years later, the Stedelijk Van Abbemuseum has grown into one of the most prominent museums for modern art in the world, with a collection that includes works by modern masters such as Picasso, Braque, Chagall, Kandinsky, El Lissitzky, and Mondrian, as well as by contemporary artists like Douglas Gordon, Pierre Huyghe, Mike Kelley, and Marijke van Warmerdam. This publication of this first reference work on the Van Abbemuseum\'s collection marks the opening of the museum\'s new building in January 2003. A lavishly illustrated book, it offers detailed descriptions of the collection, the history of the museum, and its collecting policies. Each chapter examines a theme, such as De Stiji, CoBrA, conceptualism, and minimal art, and considers works from the collection in their historical context. Published in conjunction with Stedelijk Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven.
