About us

The gallery is situated in a grade one listed house named “Het Blaauw Laaken” which was built in 1604.

This name has been attached to the house for centuries, once a cloth trade business was located here.

The art gallery, or “Kunstkabinet”, was founded in 1988.

In keeping with the historic surroundings the Bol family chose the name “Het Blaauw Laaken”, which translates to “The Blue Cloth”. 
The artist         Henri Bol originally used the exhibition space as an studio. However, he was given a new workspace in Heusden.
