A double anniversary:
The 50th Anniversary of the Museum
and the Centennial of Art Deco
In 2025, the van Buuren Museum & Gardens is celebrating a double anniversary: the 50th anniversary of the Museum, dedicated to preserving an exceptional heritage, and the 100th anniversary of the Art Deco movement, a style that, since 1925, has redefined the codes of elegance and innovation. On this occasion, the public will be invited to relive the iconic moments that animated the van Buuren couple’s home through a series of events. At the core of this anniversary, an exhibition of sculptures from the interwar period will be presented in the Museum’s magnificent gardens: “Around Art Deco. Interbellum Sculptures” from April 24 to September 28.
The International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, held in Paris from April to October 1925, marked the peak of the Art Deco style. Situated between the Esplanade des Invalides and the areas surrounding the Grand and Petit Palais, this exhibition brought together pavilions representing different regions of France and several invited nations, showcasing modern trends in architecture, interior design, furniture, glassware, jewelry, and other decorative arts.
