Winners Photo Mode competition
- On 15 November 2021
Museum Belvédère and our director Merijn de Boer organised a Photo Mode competition to accompany the exhibit Arranged Realism – Art in Games. We received many beautiful pictures in the categories Architecture, Portrait & Landscape. The professional jury gave us their expert opinion and picked three winners. The winning photos will soon be added to the exhibit and the winners receive two tickets to the museum to see their entry in real life.

We loved the e-mail Cynthia sent us. Her son Arthur made quite a few attempts to make her play games. Once she did, she got hooked. This ties in with the exhibit. Game worlds are so beautifully crafted, and there is a game to suit every age and taste. So grab your kids, parents and grandparents and come to Heerenveen. Congratulations to our three winners and a big shout out goes to all participants! We’d also like to thank the jury members for their expert opinions.
Arranged Realism – Art in Games is on display at Museum Belvédère in Heerenveen until 23 January 2022.
