VOF de Kunst is a Dutch pop group from Tilburg founded in 1983. Their hit song was "Suzanne" (Susanna) which reached #1 and #12 in the charts in the Netherlands and UK respectively.[1] The lead singer of the band is Nol Havens, and they have also toured using the The Art Company name.[2] This latter moniker was used for their only[1] UK hit.
