The 2011 Holland Festival showcased the wealth and freedom of art from all over the world in both form and substance, from Lithuanian composer Justė Janulytė to the China Northern Kunqu opera Theatre. There was a homage to controversial theatre and film maker Christoph Schlingensief, whose last work before his passing, Mea Culpa, a reflection on his illness, opened the festival. The festival devoted lots of attention to Iannis Xenakis with four concerts and the exhibition Iannis Xenakis: Composer, Architect, Visionary, about the relationship between his architecture and music.
