KochxBos Gallery is committed to new and cutting edge art. Rewarded by Top Ten independent galeries by The Guardian we provide a stage for artists to explore their ideas of tolerance and liberation in high and low art. With artists like Ray Caesar, Claire Partington and Sarah Maple we contribute to some challenging trending topics. When visiting the gallery you will be surprised by high class alienating paintings and figures.

KochxBos Gallery aims to serve and promote artists that add an intellectual and/or aesthetic value to present time. This can be a search in the of (un)conscious motives of human nature (Ray Caesar, Meryl Donoghue, Zoé Byland), the emancipation of our society (Sarah Maple, Claire Partington, Dadara) or experiments in visual perception (Bethany de Forest, Ciou). The gallery tries to astonish its audience with different and surprising views on who we are as human beings.

To name a few, Claire Partington shows historical ceramic figures giving intelligent comments on our time, while Feminist activist Maple brings us an sometimes provoking insights on different cultures. The artist Dadara gives us different perspectives on social media and our world while Michel Houellebecq’s Jed Martin makes us believe that describing art can be even more powerful as the visual art itself. KochxBos Gallery Amsterdam invites you to enter an art world full of ideas and artists that visualise these on a beautiful surprising way.

The Gallery was founded in 2005 by Esther Koch and Hans Bos. A controversial, colorful, avant-garde gallery in the center of Amsterdam.

We work with The Gallery Fair Practise Code for our artists.
- The gallery in question records in writing the relationship between the gallery and the artist, including agreements regarding the duration of the agreement, prices and any applicable discounts. Other matters that may be recorded in this document include: monitoring and evaluation of the agreements, both parties’ targets (e.g. regarding international visibility), the relationship with a second gallery, agreements regarding the settlement of any discounts, regarding commissions from third parties, or the settlement of other expenses such as for transport, photography, insurance or the construction of an exhibition. Model contracts are available on the Dutch Gallery Association (NGA) website.
- The artist remains the owner of their work until the full amount is paid to the gallery, with the exception of secondary trading. This also applies in the case of gallery bankruptcy or attachment.
- The gallery shall transfer the full artist’s share of the sales price agreed with the customer within 60 days following the sale of the artist’s work, and provide the artist with the buyer’s name and address details, and a copy of the invoice.
- Unsold artworks in the charge of the gallery must always be returned to the artist within a month, if requested by the artist.
 - The relationship between galleries may involve competition and rivalry, but in the case of different galleries representing the same artist, the galleries should in all respects remain loyal to the interests of the artist in question. If a gallery exclusively represents an artist, thereby acting as their ‘mother gallery’, and another gallery would like to organise an exhibition with this artist, the involved parties should make written agreements regarding the conditions under which the exhibition can be held (see appendix for a Dutch Gallery Association (NGA) model contract).
- The gallery is expected to be professional and competent, and to maintain this professionalism and competence.
 - The gallery vouches for the authenticity of the work that they are selling.* In the case that a work is adjudged to be fake by a recognised independent party, the customer may return the work to the gallery owner and have the amount paid for the work refunded.
 - A gallery states the following on their website: their objectives, programme, working method and the artists that they represent.
- A gallery is expected to act in accordance with the Fair Practice Code (fairpracticecode.nl), which includes an assurance against inappropriate behaviour at the gallery and elsewhere.

KOCHXBOS GALLERY OFFERS THE KUNSTKOOPREGELING 

That's a very nice way to still be able to buy the favorite work
of art and not having to pay the whole amount at once.
You pay 10% of the price, and then in installments of 12 or 
24 months. * Note that the arrangement will stop soon in March 2020. 
 
How it works
a. You see a work that you love but that is above your budget.
b. Now the Kunstkoop regeling appears: Yes you can buy the art you love!
c. You pay 10% as a downpayment of the total price and fill in the form.
d. After the bank agrees on it you pay in 12 or 24 monthly terms.
e. The work is yours! 
 
For example
Art price is €1200,- 
Downpayment of €120 (10%)
 
Then over a period op 24 months you pay ‘only’ €45,-* 
Or over a period op 12 months you pay €90,-**
 
Many of our customers already joined!
We are pleased that the Mondriaan Fund and Santander Bank 
offer this great opportunity on a idealistic and 0% loan base.
 
Conditions:
For art from € 450,- to € 7000,-
Minimum of € 22,50 per month
Santander Consumer Finance bank decides if the loan is granted.

**) €1200 - €120= €1080 : 12 = €90 per month for one year.
