From Van Gogh to Mondrian and De Stijl: Highlights from the Kröller-Müller Collection

Dr. Marek Wieczorek has long been a member of our summer school community, bringing a group of students from the University of Washington every year to study Dutch art. He is an expert on abstraction, the avant-garde, and contemporary art. As a seasoned Kröller-Müller Museum enthousiast, he will present highlights of the collection, including breakthrough works by Dutch pioneer of abstraction Piet Mondrian and his avant-garde movement De Stijl. The Kröller-Müller Museum and large sculpture garden, located in the beautiful national park the Hoge Veluwe, also houses the second largest collection of works by Vincent van Gogh.

Sex education and pleasure 

We are excited to welcome Doortje Braeken, former Senior Advisor for Adolescents and Young People at the International Planned Parenthood Federation, for a compelling lecture on sex education and the role of pleasure within it.

Doortje has led sexuality education programs in 26 countries, advocating for a rights-based approach that goes beyond biology to include the emotional, cultural, and societal influences on young people’s sexual health. Her work has focused on supporting marginalized groups, including the LGBTQ+ community, and she is a co-author of UNESCO’s latest guidelines on sexuality education.

She has written widely on sexual wellbeing and youth empowerment, including for The Guardian, and was awarded the Gold Medal by the World Association for Sexual Health in 2015 for her lifetime contributions to the field.

Join us for this important lecture on making sex education more inclusive, empowering, and relevant.
