#hat'swhat

This whole year BK-informatie has put art in public space on a pedestal. First, 100 key works were selected, and then we launched the campaign #watdoetdathier, focusing on the general public rather than the art discourse. After all, art in public space is everywhere. There are thousands of artworks in the Netherlands. Using the hashtag #watdoetdathier, we collected as many photos and stories as possible of public artworks everywhere in the Netherlands via Facebook, Instagram and the website sleutelwerken.nl. Below is a selection of 21 artworks.
