Trouble in Paradise

Published on the occasion of the exhibition ‘Trouble in Paradise’ in the Kunsthal in Rotterdam from 7 February to 26 May, This beautiful book presents works of art from the collection of private collector Rattan Chadha. It includes numerous and detailed photographs of the works of art, which can thus come to life in your own home after the exhibition. The book tells the story of the Chadha collection and at the same time presents new stories about the world we create, its differences and disputes. In her interview Sacha Bronwasser describes the interesting collaboration between collector and consultant, and Jhim Lamoree describes the history of collecting in the Netherlands. The book’s three themes reflect the development of the collection since 2001. ‘Soul Searching’ is about the human condition and emotions, ‘Delicious Confusion’ focuses on the search for new forms and ‘Forever Young’ endeavours to show a promise for the future.
