About

UNKnowN Art Gallery is a new kind of gallery which focuses on contemporary, modern and street art. UNKnowN Art Gallery welcomes visitors from all walks of life to discover, admire, and even purchase artworks from both emerging and established artists. UNKnowN takes pride in its diverse collection of contemporary, modern, and street art. Whether you are an art enthusiast, a collector (or considering becoming one), a parent seeking a place for children to engage with art, or completely new to the world of contemporary art, you are sure to find a piece that resonates with you.

The artworks displayed throughout the gallery are thematically and stylistically varied, yet they all share a common goal: accessibility. In hopes of abolishing the hierarchy between the artwork and the viewer, UNKnowN has removed physical barriers, allowing visitors to connect with and engage in conversation with the art.

UNKnowN strives to maintain this open approach to continue uniting people through art. The bright, warm atmosphere of the gallery welcomes guests into a cozy environment, where the friendly staff are always available to assist or chat. After all, the heart of UNKnowN is the community around it. It is an ecosystem where visitors, artists, staff, and neighbors alike nurture the gallery and, in turn, each other.

We have two galleries in Amsterdam Noord and the city center in Zaandam.
