Partners:
Main Partner DHB Bank
DHB has been the Main Partner of Art Rotterdam since 2025. After more than 30 years in the city, Rotterdam has truly become the hometown of DHB Bank, a Dutch bank where you can save online. Okan Balköse, CEO of DHB Bank, shares why this partnership aligns so well with the bank: "As a bank with deep roots in the city, we are proud of our partnership for the 26th edition of Art Rotterdam at Ahoy. Our support reflects our belief in the importance of keeping art accessible to everyone. Contemporary art challenges us to see the future differently, just as savings opens the door to new possibilities and space to look ahead.”
Van Lanschot Kempen
Van Lanschot Kempen and Unseen Photo are proud to partner for the 2026 edition, taking place for the first time in Rotterdam Ahoy as part of Art Rotterdam. As a wealth manager with a history spanning almost three centuries, Van Lanschot Kempen understands the value of time like no other. Committed to preserving and creating wealth for clients and society over generations, it’s been a longstanding supporter of the arts. Partnering with Unseen reflects a drive to give time to new talents, fostering works for future generations while inviting visitors to connect and welcome new perspectives.
Mondriaan Fonds
The Mondriaan Fund organises the ‘Prospects’ exhibition each year to give the visibility of starting artists an extra boost. The proximity of Art Rotterdam gives art professionals and collectors, but also a broad group of interested parties, the opportunity to become acquainted with the work of these promising artists.
NN Group
Nationale-Nederlanden (part of NN Group) makes a positive contribution to society and has been a partner of Kunsthal Rotterdam since 2016, a partner of Art Rotterdam since 2017, and has made the NN Art Award possible ever since. The NN Art Award will therefore celebrate its 10th anniversary in 2026. This incentive prize for talented artists spotlights the exceptional quality of art education in the Netherlands. Young artists from all over the world find their way to Dutch art academies. As a supporter of all art discoverers, Nationale-Nederlanden works together with its partners to inspire a wider audience for art and culture, contributing to everyone's mental wellbeing. It also provides artists with a platform to inspire others. Nationale-Nederlanden has a long history in cultural sponsorship, with a focus on visual arts, museums and music. Its partners are primarily located in cities where many colleagues work, such as The Hague and Rotterdam.
Rotterdam Ahoy
