AMSTERDAM.- Beginning March 20, 2010, Amsterdam
Historical Museum (AHM) presents one of the most extraordinary works of art of
the twentieth century: The Hoerengracht. This gigantic piece by
Edward Kienholz (1927–1994) and Nancy Reddin Kienholz (b. 1943), which has been
exhibited around the world, features as the central attraction until the summer
of 2010 in a show examining the connection between art and the part of
Amsterdam’s old medieval centre known as the Wallen. This is the first
appearance in Amsterdam of The Hoerengracht, which is inspired by the city’s
world-famous Red Light District.
