  The Vereniging van Nederlandse Kunsthistorici (VNK) or Association of Dutch Art Historians was founded in 1939 and currently has (ca.) 850 members. The VNK is committed to advocating for historians of art and architecture in the Netherlands and promoting the professional practice of art history. I am serving on the board to advance and support art historical research. Within this framework I coordinate the awarding of two prizes for excellent scholarship. The Karel van Mander Prize is awarded to an author for an outstanding art historical publication -each year in a different sub-category- that appeared in the past five years. The Jan van Gelder Prize grants support to an art historian under 35 for an outstanding doctoral dissertation. Show less
