The art fair of the north

From Wednesday 2 April to Sunday 6 April 2025, Kunst aan het Hof, the art fair of the north, will once again take place at the Hof van Saksen. This intimate and very exclusive art fair is opening its doors for the 4th edition. This high-end boutique art fair presents the latest art, antiques and design collections from prominent Dutch galleries and art dealers. The exhibitors are largely renowned participants of PAN Amsterdam.

Architecture

That Hof van Saksen was designed with an eye for detail is apparent all over the resort. For example, the farmhouses and Havezate main building were designed by architect Cor Kalfsbeek with a nod to the past, as he himself puts it so beautifully. The ultimate luxury and quality of the interiors were designed by the hand of interior designer Piet Boon.

Henk Halmantel

Hanging in the hall above the piano is the largest still life that master painter Henk Helmantel ever made. But that is not the only work of art by his hand at the resort. There are another 24.

Red Dog

A giant red dog stands guard of the resort. According to the artist William Sweetlove, the dog is not only a message of hope but also a dire warning against climate change.
