“In 1951, in the shadow of the Cold War, the Dutch government introduced a system requiring museums to categorize their collections for evacuation in times of war. Through ‘evacuation dots’ it was determined which works should be saved first: red stood for ‘very important’, white for ‘important’, and blue for ‘less important’. This exhibition in the IMC gallery focuses on the forgotten blue dots. What does it say about a work of art—and about us—when a work was once labeled as “less important”?”
