Assignment
The interpretation and personal vision of the artist gives the drawings character and therefore it does not have to be a literal registration of the subject; a more abstract representation is also possible. The boundaries of the surprising/exciting may be sought, but recognisability of the location or event in the city is an important starting point. The drawings thus form a meaningful addition to the collection of the Rotterdam City Archives. The assignment for 2025 concerns a sketchbook. Further details will be agreed upon later. The exact dimensions will be coordinated at a later date. Licenses (written agreement) The following points are agreed upon upon acceptance of the assignment:

  • copyright rests with the artist during his life, upon death the rights belong to the Rotterdam City Archives or in the public domain;
  • Rotterdam City Archives is at all times entitled to make disclosures in the online image bank and other platforms on which the Rotterdam City Archives publishes;
  • Rotterdam City Archives and CBK Rotterdam can make the drawings available to third parties insofar as it concerns non-commercial use (written statement);
  • Rotterdam City Archives and CBK Rotterdam can exhibit the work delivered and make it public in publications;
  • CBK Rotterdam is entitled at all times to use the image material on its websites.
