This summer Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen and Port of Rotterdam are organising an exhibition of work by three contemporary painters in the Submarine Wharf entitled XXXL Painting. Concurrently two contemporary art exhibitions will open in the museum itself: The City, The Artists and the Museum and Sensory Spaces. Contemporary art takes centre stage for the whole summer in Rotterdam.

The 5000m2 Submarine Wharf is located in Rotterdam’s docklands. This summer the building is being transformed into a gigantic painter’s studio with work by three internationally renowned painters: Chris Martin, Jim Shaw and Klaas Kloosterboer. The museum’s largest galleries play host to a selection from the Rotterdam City Collection: works in diverse media by internationally renowned artists and designers from Rotterdam such as Atelier Van Lieshout, Daan van Golden and Erik van Lieshout. Sensory Spaces is the title of a new series of solo exhibitions by young artists in the Willem van der Vorm Gallery made possible by AMMODO. The series begins with an installation by Oscar Tuazon.
