Extra Info:
Hotel Central Background

In 1931, the monumental Hotel Central was built opposite the station in Tilburg in Art Deco style by architect Casper Melchior Balthasar van den Beld. Before that time, this location was home to the café-restaurant Albert Janssen.

During World War I, Theo van Doesburg was stationed as a sergeant-postman on the Regte Heide between Tilburg and the Belgian border. The café-restaurant of Albert Janssen served as a meeting place for Van Doesburg and his artistic friends, who organized sensational Dadaist 'soirees intimes' there. It was also here that preliminary ideas were formulated for a new magazine (De Stijl) that would be the starting point for the art movement De Stijl, founded in 1917 in Leiden. The outlines of this renewal movement were sketched in pencil at this location on Spoorlaan in Tilburg.

As a salute to the innovation drive of that time, during the renovation of Hotel Central in 2023, it was decided to name each of the 21 rooms after an artist associated with De Stijl or a Dada artist.

In the person of Theo van Doesburg, who wrote Dadaist poems under the pseudonym I.K. Bonset, De Stijl and the experimental and absurdist Dadaism come together. Both art movements, which were a response to World War I and the new era that dawned with the 20th century, were diametrically opposed to each other.

Each of the 21 rooms in Hotel Central has received unique wall coverings featuring specific accents and/or quotes from the respective artist, writer, or architect.

Room 19: Antony Kok Room (Rotterdam 1882 – Haarlem 1969)
The Tilburg-based railway official Antony Kok was not only a close friend of Theo van Doesburg but also a patron of artists, a talented pianist, and writer. In conversations with Theo van Doesburg, who was stationed in Tilburg during World War I for a time, the first notions of what would later in 1917 in Leiden take shape with the founding of the art movement De Stijl by Van Doesburg.

In the room named after Kok, in addition to the sound poem TREIN, the poems Nachtkroeg and Stilte + Stem (verse in W) can be read. A frieze with piano keys along the ceiling commemorates his musical identity. His work as a railway official is represented (other than in the sound poem TREIN) also in the photography (Collection Nederlandse Spoorwegen, the Utrecht archive) of a colossal hanging locomotive in the main workshop of the Railways next to the Central Station, where Kok worked as a clerk, placed behind the bed. Some of the buildings of the Railways' main workshop from that time still exist and have since been renovated. One of these is the Lochal, the City Hall, in which the public library has received a very impressive housing that is certainly worth a visit.

In 2022, on the 140th birthday of Antony Kok, one of his aphorisms appeared as a light art installation on the canopy of Building 79 in the Spoorzone: 'The world of today rushes on in Dada's footsteps.'
