Noord Amsterdam Street Art

Yesterday was all about the great Dutch masterpieces. Today it's all about the great masterpieces of Dutch street art.

First, we stopped off at Buiksloterweg before heading to NDSM-werf, a derelict shipyard turned avant-garde arts community. NDSM is only 15 minutes upriver from Centraal station. Creativity oozes from every corner with its über cool, post-modern warehouse full of crazy installation art. Nearby an estate of houses built out of recycled shipping containers dot the landscape.

One of the exhibitions included the Barbie peepshow. Pay one or two euros and you get to "watch crazy stuf [sic] between her legs". Ricky was curious but too scared to take the plunge into the seedy world of Barbie (art)porn. Jason on the other hand felt right at home with a beer 🍻 in his hand, sitting on the beach, as he immersed himself into the bohemian lifestyle of an avant-garde model.Läs mer
