Discover the Exhibition

Take your class on an inspiring journey through the multifaceted work of acclaimed actor, artist, and style icon Tilda Swinton.

In a slightly blurry photo, Tilda Swinton stands against a mottled grey background, wearing a dark double-breasted suit. Her short blonde hair is curled up into a coiled quiff, she wears a popping turqouise eyeshadow, a light pink lipstick, and a curling brown moustache.

Tilda Swinton

Ongoing

During this interactive guided tour, students will be introduced to Tilda Swinton and her creative collaborations with filmmaker and artist friends. She will showcase new and existing work by Pedro Almodóvar, Luca Guadagnino, Joanna Hogg, Derek Jarman, Jim Jarmusch, Olivier Saillard, Tim Walker, and Apichatpong Weerasethakul.

Through conversations and hands-on assignments led by an Eye film educator, students will explore how style and performance influence each other, and how collaboration opens up new perspectives. They will reflect on themes such as identity, transformation, and the dynamic relationship between actor and director. At the end, they will translate their insights into a short creative film exercise.

This tour aligns with the final exam program Kunst Algemeen (film analysis) and the renewed CKV curriculum.

Please note: This tour is popular. Book at least three weeks in advance to secure a spot.
