Summer exposition 2024

The artists who are part of the 2024 summer exhibition are diverse in their views, expressions and techniques. They all match the image we have of ‘the artist’. They work passionately on an oeuvre, they tackle their materials, have a high degree of craftsmanship and technical control and are therefore able to create beauty with their hands.

In addition to an enormous aesthetic sense, the artists also have a dose of stubbornness and perseverance. The latter is necessary because the statues are often made of unwieldy, robust materials – such as stone and iron – which are not easy to work with. The material only yields when the artist lets go of some of his own will. The maker and the material then create their own language, in which the editing is not just a technique, but rather an expression of ultimate loyalty to the intrinsic beauty of the material. The artists create their own world and you can see and experience something of that world in our garden.
