The Dutch cultural sector takes on rules that keep museums and music venues shut but salons open.

Ms Gordenker stressed that Wednesday's action differed to that of anti-lockdown, anti-vaccine protesters who regularly express their discontent on the public square outside the Van Gogh Museum, insofar as the institutions are sticking to the rules.

"It's crooked, I can do my job and the people from the museum cannot," said Mischa, a barber, who carted his traditional barber's chair, mirror and trimmers into the entrance of the Van Gogh Museum. But didn't he feel anxious, working so close to Van Gogh's masterpieces? "Only anxious I will cut someone's ear off, like Vincent did," he quipped.Haircuts were carried out in the Concertgebouw as the orchestra played under conductor Susanna Mälkki

The orchestra said it was designed "to enrich their lives with the power of symphonic music at a time when everyone needs inspiration".Local council enforcers threatened to drop by without an appointment and Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema was one of several city leaders warning that the cultural protests wouldn't be tolerated, no matter how stylish they might be.
