Vanessa Barberà

Art Historian in Amsterdam
About Vanessa

Vanessa has lived in the Netherlands for over fifteen years. As an Art Historian and expert in Cultural Heritage, living here has sparked her curiosity about this country and its society, with its unlimited options of sites to enjoy and explore. She speaks English, Spanish, and Catalan, as well as Dutch because she believes it is important to be able to understand the society that has welcomed her. The fields in which she is specialized are Heritage and Museums like the Van Gogh Museum (where she has worked as an official guide for the same museum organization) and the Rijksmuseum, but also the city of Amsterdam itself because every step you make in this city opens a new historical window. She has been working as an assistant curator in different galleries and museums of Amsterdam and as a Heritage Specialist and Consultant for the University of Barcelona, the Catalan Government, and also for U.S. companies.
As a guide, she aims to help visitors feel like locals and to expand their knowledge about the art, history, and culture of the Netherlands.
