Slovenian art historian Špela Šubic comes to the Netherlands from 2 through 5 June as part of our visitors’ programme. Šubic, a senior curator at the Architectural Museum of Ljubljana and secretary-general for the Biennial of Industrial Design, will be Premsela’s third foreign guest this year.
Turkish journalist and curator Aylin Sayek visited the Netherlands this spring. Italian curator Angelo Capasso came in February to gather material for a forthcoming exhibition in Rome on Dutch art and fashion. Focusing on design as it relates to the body, the show will feature work by big names like Viktor & Rolf and Erwin Olaf. Capasso wrote a brief
report of his Dutch trip for Design.nl.

Each year, Premsela invites around ten foreign guests to the Netherlands to learn about Dutch design. During an intensively scheduled few days, they visit museums, galleries and design firms. Past guests have hailed from countries ranging from Brazil to China and including old and new EU member states.
The Visitors' Programme strengthens the international design network. Visits also give rise to exhibitions, lectures and publicity. Check this site regularly for news of our latest guests. We welcome suggestions of people to invite; email
