Amsterdam Light Festival

One of the more interesting light art installations at this year's ALF. It's called Metamorfaunes and depicts several Dutch icons, including a mermaid version of Vermeer's girl with the pearl earring.

Teylers Museum

The oldest museum in the Netherlands can be found in Haarlem, my home town. They have a Michelangelo exhibition now. I don't know if it's because of this, or if it's a more permanent change, but since a couple of weeks, the entrance is illuminated in these three colours. It suits the building quite well, I think. Left of the museum, the tower of the Grote Kerk (or Great Church) can be seen.
