This exhibition features murals created at the invitation of Museum De Lakenhal by twenty leading artists of varying national origin. The wall paintings all build on the ideas of Theo van Doesburg, who launched his De Stijl magazine in Leiden exactly a century ago. The exhibition is the work of guest curators Iemke van Dijk and Guido Winkler.

One hundred years after the birth of the De Stijl movement, Museum De Lakenhal is taking stock of what has been achieved. The murals are being exhibited in the town’s Pieterskerkhof area, while a scale model of the Maison d’Artiste can be seen on Het Gerecht. The Maison d’Artiste was designed by Theo van Doesburg and Cornelis van Eesteren in Paris in 1923.

OPPLER features artworks that visually move and shift beneath one’s gaze, triggering relational reactions, synesthetic responses, and wobbly eyes. The artists included have created works that straddle unmapped and unmappable spaces, where objects move and shift, triggering simultaneous contradictory sensory readings.

OPPLER includes works that tangentially relate to Op Art, Minimalism, Kinetic Art, Concrete Art and Color Field Painting, though none of these historic movements is fully representative of the work shown. The subject of the work is the work itself; what you see is what it is.

OPPLER includes site-specific installation, two-dimensional painting and low relief three-dimensional wall sculpture. While the three-dimensional works may appear flat, many of the two-dimensional works leap off the wall and into the eyes.

Doppler is an international traveling exhibition organized by Mel Prest. The exhibition features works by twenty two artists living in the US and Europe. The exhibition title refers to the Doppler Effect as well as synesthesia. The intent of the exhibition is to visually question or crush the illusion of difference between 2D and 3D. The artists chosen have created work that optically straddles this un-locatable perceptual space where static objects move and shift or trigger simultaneous sense-readings.

The exhibition Flat Colour presents different approaches to colour in minimalist painting. Colour is essential in the work of the six Dutch artists Henriëtte van ’t Hoog, Ditty Ketting, Gracia Khouw, Guido Nieuwendijk, Marije Vermeulen and Guido Winkler, where it is used in the flattest possible way for maximum spatiality. This way colour manifests itself most purely, as light or vibration, independent from matter and form.

‘Flat’ also refers to the low lands, the uniform light over the polders, monotonous suburbs and cityscapes. It raises questions about the influence of the composition of the Dutch landscape on the images created. For these artists, flat views seem precisely to intensify the need for colour!

From Gracia Khouw’s preface in the catalogue:

Facet I, 2012, 43x41x13 cm

Facet I, 2012, 43x41x13 cm

In cosmology there is a theory that the universe is expanding at an ever-increasing rate. Started from a small universe that sprayed apart with a big bang, this unknown force is still continuing and increasingly pushes galaxies apart. This takes place in a time and space that are almost unimaginable and immeasurable for us.

Scientific discoveries about the universe expand our perception and provide a framework for the imagination. Painting does this as well. If you stand in front of a painting, you dive into the time and space of the painting. The eye sees lines, surfaces, colour and paint in a certain order and puts the imagination to work, looking for meaning that relates primarily to our immediate surroundings, the habitable world. But what if the meaning refuses to be reduced to the reality as we experience it in everyday life?

In the exhibition Space, Expanding four artists are brought together who investigate ‘space’ in a manner akin to thinking about the universe. Unlike an architectural, habitable room you can build, which has dimensions through which you can walk, there is also space that denies any such foothold. Imagine a space that is continuously expanding and where there are no fixed dimensions or distances. What effect will that have on our perception of depth, motion and matter?

The artworks in Space, Expanding approach space differently from what we are accustomed to seeing. At first glance, they proceed from a recognizable starting point, such as perspective, grid lines, text, images or reflections of reality, but on closer inspection each image contains within itself multiple representations or propositions of reality.
