Hans van Bentem

Hans van Bentem has been creating an impressive oeuvre of monumental sculptures, large installations, and glass and light objects for decades. His pieces come to be both as autonomous work and commissioned, and can be found in public spaces, galleries, and museums. Van Bentem uses traditional materials and techniques to tell contemporary stories.

In 2012 he made six installations for the Municipal Museum in The Hague, called “Keep On Dreaming”. They have been a traveling exhibition on display at historical sites ever since. Recent works include a crystal objects for French iconic crystal manufacturer Baccarat, part of the entirely renovated Beurspassage in Amsterdam, and a Harbour Monument for Amsterdam
