o try and Solve the mysterious riddles of the Art world, Jan Dix Needs to travel a lot, going to the four corners of the earth. Stalking the tracks of great artists (and their works), such as Rembrandt, Vermeer and Van Gogh, or looking for a crazed and unknown “ex voto” painter, the “primitives” sculptors who create totems and animistic images, or the morbid “wunderkammer” makers, Dix flies to very different places all over the world.
The theatre of his adventures is Amsterdam, the place where he lives and home of the Rijksmuseum. His adventures in the Netherlands aren’t limited to the big city with its famous canals, but take place in some less known corners away from the touristic circuit, in the fascinating Dutch countryside, with its ubiquitous windmills.
