Amsterdam's Hermitage Museum undergoes name change due to Russian connection.
Amsterdam's Hermitage Museum will be renamed the H'ART Museum from September, following its severance of ties with the St. Petersburg version over Russia's war in Ukraine. The museum also announced partnerships with the British Museum, the Pompidou Centre, and Smithsonian American Art Museum. Its first major exhibition under the new name will feature Russian-born painter Wassily Kandinsky in mid-2024, followed by an exhibition of 17 Rembrandt paintings in 2025 to mark the 750th anniversary of the city of Amsterdam.
