In short
Exhibitions
The exhibition Anselm Kiefer – Sag mir wo die Blumen sind was a particular highlight. For the first time in their history, the Van Gogh Museum and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam joined forces to present a major exhibition about one of the most important artists of our time: Anselm Kiefer.
The autumn exhibition Van Gogh and the Roulins. Together Again at Last was also special: fourteen portraits of the Roulin family, usually dispersed across museums and private collections worldwide, were brought together for the first time.
I am Jo!
The programme I am Jo! connected more than one hundred women from Amsterdam
with the life story of Jo van Gogh-Bonger. During creative sessions and workshops, participants explored their talents, identity and personal development, culminating in a presentation at the museum and exhibitions at several branches of the Amsterdam Public Library.
Financial
The organisation remains financially healthy: the Van Gogh Museum closed 2025 with a positive result of € 5.1 million. The number of visitors increased compared to the previous year, contributing to higher self-generated income.
