Artists give a round: Gabrielle Kroese

About this activity.

Artists Gabrielle Kroese, Sabine Liedtke and Ismaël Lotz each explain their work in their own way during a tour of the exhibition Are You Now in Wall House #2. On Sunday, September 26, 1 pm, it will be Gabrielle Kroese's turn.

Gabrielle Kroese (Rotterdam, 1963), graduated from Minerva Academy. Her work has been nominated several times and is included in various collections. Kroese has worked as an artist in residence in Iceland (2015) and in Japan (2018). Kroese's second working visit to Japan was canceled in 2020 due to COVID-19. It is precisely because of this that the Painted Prints series came into being, where she worked with photos she previously made in the Munich Botanical Garden; archived nature as a symbol of the current corona pandemic.
At the beginning of the pandemic, the sky was an unprecedented clear bottomless blue. Kroese has taken pictures of this time and again. She calls the new color that has arisen from this Covid_Blue. For the series Covid_Blue she edited photos she previously made in Munich with these blue color areas. By disrupting the image, she wants to slow down looking in order to intensify it. This method is characteristic of her paintings.

Wall House #2.

Wall House #2 is een bezienswaardigheid, met zijn veelheid aan vormen, kleuren, interessante details, symbolen en betekenissen. Het is een exponent van de architectuur in de jaren tachtig en negentig van de vorige eeuw, toen de stad Groningen zich als podium voor internationale postmoderne architectuur profileerde. Het exuberante woonhuis werd ontworpen door de architect John Quentin Hejduk (New York 1929 - 2000 New York).
