Mix & Match - Antonis Pittas
Bleu, blauw, μπλε, blau, blue – Compositions
From 18 July 2026, Kunstmuseum Den Haag will present a new edition of Mix & Match, the exhibition series in which contemporary artists offer a new perspective on the museum’s collection. For this edition, the museum has invited Antonis Pittas. In Bleu, blauw, μπλε, blau, blue – Compositions he explores how art, politics and ideology are intertwined.
The Meaningful Blue
Drawing from the visual language of modernism and De Stijl, Antonis Pittas explores how ideals such as peace, unity and progress are made visible through images, colours and symbols. Blue plays a central role in this.
The colour simultaneously references De Stijl, NATO, spirituality and political power, lending meaning to the exhibition.
Antonis Pittas combines works from the Kunstmuseum's collection with architecture, archival material and new installations. In doing so, he shows how colour, form and composition are not merely aesthetic, but also carry ideological significance.
Mix & Match – Antonis Pittas is on view from 18 July 2026 to 7 March 2027.
