The youth

“Heads down, phone in hands, switched off to the world around them. Gen-‘Y’ers have developed knowledge ‘a mile wide and an inch deep’.”

The youth skim the surface of life with constant social media use.

Art in a Mall

The Rijksmuseum in Holland had an idea: Let’s bring the art to the people and then, hopefully, they will come to see more – at the museum. They took one painting of Rembrandt’s from 1642, “Night Watch” and brought to life the characters in it, placed them in a busy mall and the rest you can see for yourself!
