Are the Netherlands a Land of Plenty to artists?
Have Dutch artists become 'luier' (lazier) than artists in other countries?
Is Dutch Art 'lekkerder' (nicer) than art from other countries?
Where lie the detectable boundaries around, and where the more invisible ones inside the Land of Plenty?
''Who is allowed to taste from the rice pudding? Who is not?
And how does it taste?''
