Stephanie Rosenthal has been appointed artistic director of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam. She will take up the position in Spring 2027.

\n\n\n\n

Rosenthal is currently director of Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. She will remain in this role through the museum’s public opening, set for this December. The museum will then be led by Valerie Hillings, who was appointed as its inaugural director in August.

\n\n\n\n

‘Institutions that embrace moments of transition to innovate and to rethink the museum’s role in the twenty-first century have always inspired me’, said Rosenthal in a statement. ‘Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is such a museum – evident in the ambition of the Depot, the world’s first publicly accessible art store, and in the renewal of its modernist building ahead of reopening in 2030. I look forward to opening new conversations between eras and artistic practices through the museum’s exceptional collection of art and design, and to further enriching its relationship with Rotterdam, a port city shaped by cultural exchange and diversity.’
