1646 is an art space for contemporary art in the centre of The Hague with a strong international and experimental program.
For nineteen years, 1646 has supported the production of new work by emerging and established artists. The core of our activities is to offer a broader insight into artistic practice. This results in a consistent programming of solo exhibitions and the completion of a series of peripheral activities that give the public a deeper insight into the creative process and the influences behind the work, which include lectures, residencies, performances and international projects.
