Description
Nederland kent talloze piepkleine musea. Soms zijn ze niet groter dan de huiskamer van de eigenaar. Wie kent het Electro Radio Nostalgie Museum, Jannie's Koeienmuseum, het Zandlopermuseum of het Nederlands Dakpannenmuseum? Fotograaf Maartje ter Horst raakte gefascineerd door de kleinste musea van Nederland en hun eigenaren. Ze selecteerde 20 fotogenieke musea, verdeeld over heel Nederland. Het levert prachtige, vaak ontroerende beelden op. De verhalen van de museumeigenaren zijn met humor, maar ook groot respect opgetekend. Met de foto's vormen ze een ode aan de mensen die hun tijd, geld en energie steken in hun passie, die ze zo graag met ons willen delen. Behalve een prachtig fotoboek is 'Ode aan de kleinste musea van Nederland' een oproep om deze en andere minimusea eens te bezoeken. Want hoewel je ze niet vindt in hippe stadsgidsen, en je makkelijk aan ze voorbij loopt, zit Nederland er vol mee. Niet alleen hun collecties, maar ook de eigenaren zouden weleens je hart kunnen stelen
The Netherlands has numerous tiny museums. Sometimes they are not larger than the owner's living room. Who knows the Electro Radio Nostalgia Museum, Jannie's Cow Museum, the Hourglass Museum or the Dutch Roofing Museum? Photographer Maartje ter Horst became fascinated by the smallest museums in the Netherlands and their owners. She selected 20 photogenic museums, spread all over the Netherlands. It produces beautiful, often moving images. The stories of the museum owners are recorded with humor, but also great respect. With the photos, they are an ode to the people who put their time, money and energy into their passion, which they so desperately want to share with us. In addition to a beautiful photo book, 'Ode to the smallest museums in the Netherlands' is a call to visit these and other mini-museums. Because even though you cannot find them in hip city guides, and you can easily walk past them, the Netherlands is full of them. Not only their collections, but also the owners could sometimes steal your heart
