H'ART Museum (Hermitage Amsterdam) — Attraction in Amsterdam

The large 'Welcome desk' with 3 people behind it is not in-fact the Information Desk and they will not assist with your one question you have, rather point you to the small desk with one person that isn't marked that is apparently the Information desk. Suggestion 1: Mark the Information Desk with signage so visitors can see where it is and add another staff member when busy so information is indeed accessible.

Whether you booked a Ticket online or at the Venue the queue length is the same and the signage for the two different queues isn't double sided, isn't facing the correct way and results in many visitors having to jump from one queue to the other whilst in the queue as they figure out by themselves which one is the right one for them. Suggestion 2: Have clearly marked all-sides-every-side signs that indicate which queue is for E-Tickets and which queue is for Ticket purchases so there is no confusion, 99% of your visitors are confused on entry. Suggestion 3: Make it more convenient for E-Ticket holders to enter the exhibition they had the forethought to book for, after all they booked an E-Ticket to avoid the queue.

Once standing in the queue for over 20 minutes (with E-Tickets) and having your E-Ticket scanned you then need to re-scan your ticket manually at another check-in point, yes - two check-ins for one E-Ticket before you enter the exhibition. Suggestion 4: Perhaps let E-Ticket holders go straight through to manual check-in and have a staff member/security guard there to assist, no real need for a double check-in.

The exhibit hallways are thin and rooms are small and there were to many people let in (no apparent limit) meaning you could not actually view the write ups, art or videos because you were at least 7-12 people per write up/video/art piece also meaning there was no flow, people blocked people and entrance ways and views - the whole point of being there, to see the art, was impossible. Suggestion 5: Limit the number of people attending the exhibition over a period of time so that each visitor actually gets to read, see, watch what they paid/visited for.

The whole visitor experience and actual art exhibition flow needs a serious make-over, through the visitors eyes, as this experience was extremely frustrating from...

The Kandinsky exhibition at H’Art Museum was a mesmerizing journey into the mind of one of modern art’s most influential pioneers. This thoughtfully curated exhibition showcases the full spectrum of Wassily Kandinsky’s groundbreaking work, from his early experiments with color and form to his later, more abstract masterpieces.

The vibrant paintings and sketches on display reflect Kandinsky’s unique ability to blend emotion, music, and spirituality into visual art. The exhibition highlights key phases of his career, providing insight into how he evolved from figurative works to the bold, abstract compositions that revolutionized art. The accompanying descriptions and multimedia elements offer context about Kandinsky’s inspirations, influences, and his role in the development of abstract art, making the experience both educational and inspiring.

The layout of the exhibition is exceptional, guiding visitors seamlessly through Kandinsky’s artistic evolution. The lighting and spacing allow each piece to shine, while the tranquil atmosphere of the H’Art Museum enhances the viewing experience.

Whether you’re an art enthusiast or new to Kandinsky’s work, this exhibition is a feast for the senses and a rare opportunity to explore the genius of a true visionary. What a pity if...

Just be clear: this is NOT a museum and the spectacular art and objects seen in old photos is all gone. Despite its sprawling building, H’Art is actually ONE single medium sized gallery with only ONE temporary exhibit. Despite many photos showing a world-class collection of Dutch Golden Age Guild Portraits, there are none left. There are no paintings at all. Their current exhibit about Julius Caesar has a small selection of mostly unimpressive antique sculptures (small scale, mediocre artistry, or poor condition). The adjoining “Amsterdam Museum” is essentially the same. It’s also essentially one single gallery, not a museum. It feels and presents as just a random assortment of objects and a few paintings. It feels more like a fancy storage unit rather than a museum. If the ticket price was 7-10 Euro it would be good enough. But for a 32 Euro ticket, it seriously feels like a...
