De schoonheid van ons land

 
With Luuk Wilmering / Otto Snoek / Ronald Cornelissen / Frank Vande Veire – Pictura Dordrecht – 2025

This exhibition explores how the age-old human desire to form close-knit communities today often takes on grotesque and violence-laden forms. This theme is illuminated through photographs, collages, spatial works, and drawings by Luuk Wilmering, Otto Snoek, and Ronald Cornelissen. Frank Vande Veire contributes an essay that resonates with the themes of the exhibition. His text is deliberately not a theoretical reflection on the artworks and will be available in printed form.

Luuk Wilmering’s collages examine national identity, history, and the tensions between progress and tradition.

Through raw, detailed street photography, Otto Snoek lays bare the joyless mechanisms and brazen surfaces of the spectacular society and its populist impulses.

In his series of drawings, Cornelissen portrays the inflated myths of the countryside and the grotesque dichotomy between city and countryside.

In his essay, Frank Vande Veire attempts to articulate the damage caused by our longing for identity.

Souvenirs, a presentation of multiples and books by Luuk Wilmering, Otto Snoek, Frank Vande Veire and myself was on view in the Foyer.

Many thanks to Frank Koolen for his performance during the opening of the exhibition.

The Approximate World at the Albert van Abbehuis in Eindhoven

 
This thematic exhibition is about connections between place, memory and history. Five artists explore areas where personal and political stories are connected. They share a fascination for analysing changing ‘landscapes’, contexts and historical events. From drawing to video, from factual research to idiosyncratic interpretation. With works by Ad van Campenhout, Martin & Inge Riebeek, Annemarie van Sprang and myself.

Photo’s 1 and 4 by Peter Cox.
Thanks to Yvonne Hamstra and Diana Franssen.
