Skateboard City
Where ordinary city dwellers might not notice walls, railings and ramps, skateboarders constantly search for new grinding challenges and spots for tricks. Van Eesteren’s latest exhibition explores the unique relationship skaters have with the architecture of Amsterdam, from the introduction of skate culture in the 1970s to the focus today on making the sport more inclusive, attracting increasingly more women and LGBTQI+ people.
