The Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam exhibition kicked off two weeks ago at Beijing's Capital Museum and will run through October 31.

The recently refurbished Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam is the primary institution for modern and contemporary art and design in the Netherlands.

The Beijing exhibition features five newly completed projects by Benthem Crouwel Architects, including the Stedelijk building, a railway station and concert hall, along with iconic chair designs by Marcel Wanders made between 1995 and 2013.

This unique show will inspire visitors to catch Stedelijk's major Wanders collection in Amsterdam beginning in February next year when the exhibition opens to the public.
