Kunstkijk – Thursday 9th to Sunday 12th May
I am participating in the multi-day art event Kunstkijk that takes place at Goeree-Overflakkee. This year the theme is ‘Earth’. The aim of the event is to bring high-level two- and three-dimensional art to the attention of the public in as accessible a manner as possible. In the week of Ascension, 96 artists exhibit at 36 different locations in 10 villages, both indoors and outdoors. The sometimes unexpected locations are spread across the island, but there is a certain clustering. At various times and at varying locations, we collaborate with representatives from the music world, theater, literary arts and educational and cultural institutions.
I exhibit a selection of paintings and sketches at the Hofstede Lust & Last location, Kokseweg 4-6, Sommelsdijk.
Admission to the exhibitions is free.

De Trommel van de Vrijbuiter – Wednesday 1st to Sunday 26th May
In 2024, Gerard Fieret (honorary member of the Hague Art Circle) would have turned 100 years old. Gerard was a colorful figure in The Hague. He is known for his free photography and poems. The Hague Art Circle wants to pay tribute to his work and is organizing a Fieret month in May 2024 with exhibitions and theme evenings.
The exhibition in the boardroom will consist of work by the grandmaster himself. In the Albert Vogelzaal and the garden you can see other exhibitions by members who were inspired by Gerard’s oeuvre. I drew a portrait of him on the iPad with a selection of his photos in the background. The title ‘Gerard Fieret – P.O. Box 117’ refers to the address he stamped on many of his photographs.
