Rijksmuseum - 80 years' war

the Rijksmuseum's latest exhibition chronicles 80 years of civil war in the Lowlands. More actual than ever, this brilliant show acts as a perfect warning sign for those who fear whoever's different and are ready to fight and die for god and country: be careful what you wish for.

Mumford & sons - Delta (2018)

Mumford, Lovett, Marshall and Dwane's fourth album is a subdued and mature affair. Die-hard fans hoping for some funky banjo hits need to look elsewhere, as do the critics looking for some ill-advised country pop renaissance. Everyone else, listen to this one.

Kogonada's debut film Columbus is a spellbinding feature about architecture, beauty and human connections. A stunning vehicle for co-stars Haley Lu Richardson and John Cho, Columbus goes to show that small movies can have a huge impact, and stay with you long after the credit rolls.
