Exhibition at private art gallery Lijnbaan 140 ends after almost 3 months!

 

On October 9th, private gallery Lijnbaan 140 The Hague organised a small, but quaint and cosy closer of the group exhibtion that had been on display throughout all Summer, from July 3rd. So, nearly a full 3 months later, it was time for one last gathering of the participating artists. And still, quite some people took the opportunity to go and visit the artshow and had a good look at the art displayed, including mine. Again, that made for some good conversations and some nice new contacts.

I would like to thank owner Ellen Tuyn for all the great work she put into organising the exhibition (while running her own AirBnB at the same venue at the same time), the other participating artists for sharing their work with mine and all visitors having come and seen all of our work and Witty Art in particular!

The good thing is, she decided to keep some Witty Art herself by giving one of my precious 'Lost Bears' a loving new home - which marked the beginning of what eventually will be The Lijnbaan 140 Art Collection. And knowing Ellen's taste for good art, this will no doubt grow out to be one collection you might want to see for yourself, one day!

So, yesterday I went to The Hague to prepare my part of the exhibition in private artgallery Lijnbaan 140. It all went very well and extremely smooth as it turned out to be a perfect combination of both my work and that of Ellen Tuyn, the gallery's owner and a painter herself. Even though our styles and techniques couldn't be any different, we came up with a perfect arrangement for our artwork, which is complemented by the glass sculptures of Heidi van de Water; scrap art creations by Karin Nolmans and delicate porcelain art by Maya Wuhrmann. 

There will be an exclusive viewing of the exhibition on Sunday July 3rd from 11 to 14 hrs, Lijnbaan 140, Den Haag (The Hague).

After Sunday, Lijnbaan 140 is open by appointment only. If you want to visit the exhibition, please contact gallery owner Ellen Tuyn on her mobile: 06 48 27 51 48.
The exhibition will run untill he end of July. 

The selection on display as of tomorrow consists of seven older works, created back in 2014 and recent drawings, created recently over the last couple of months, even this very week! There's seven 'Singles', all of them shown during previous exhibitions but never together in this particular line up. 

Besides those, there is also a selection of new works from my series 'Lost Bear'. To be precise, ten in total and off them were created just earlier this week, especially for this exhibition! 

Also on display, in their very own special corner of the exhibition: a couple of smaller two-pieces and three-pieces from what is now called the series 'Lost My Bearings'. The latter, in fact, is more or less a spin-off of the 'Lost Bear'-series, but I will write more about that in a separate blogpost.

For now, I am looking forward to what no doubt will be a great opening tomorrow, and a chance to introduce Witty Art to some new friends and followers, as well as re-encounter some older ones!
