Sotheby's will offer for sale 163 works of the former Peter Stuyvesant Collection in Amsterdam on March 8, 2010. Read press release
Enormous paintings hanging over the machinery in the factory: 45 years ago, this was the beginning of the artistic adventure now known as the BATartventure Collection (then known as the Peter Stuyvesant Collection). This is an adventure with an ideal: a company that collects art for its employees and believes that art affects people, that it can stimulate their imagination and encourage them to “take the path less travelled”. This Adventure in Art is an adventure that never ends. Its unique vision in combination with the quality of the artworks is what makes the BATartventure Collection one of Europe’s most authoritative corporate collections of contemporary art.
