Na...Tuurlijk! (Of course!)

About this activity.

Reinder Bleeker, Brenda Hardijk, Gerald Schuil, Jeanet Schipper and Jintiene Zeilstra are inspired by the power and vulnerability of nature. In their paintings and objects, they have found a way to pay tribute to this, each with a personal perspective and approach.

Bleeker, Schuil and Zeilstra translate their observations of the landscape, the light, and the seasons into paintings where growth and movement play a role. From delicate structures and beautiful spots to powerful movements and exuberant colors.
Hardijk and Schipper work with materials from nature itself, expressing what moves them. Seen in stylized forms, but also in objects with a texture of earth and clay.

In this exhibition, the paintings and ceramics invite to see the beauty of life and the surrounding environment, and to experience the connection between humans and nature.

The exhibition can be visited from December 4, 2025, to January 4, 2026, Thursday to Sunday from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM (closed on December 25 & 26 and January 1).

The opening reception takes place on Sunday, December 7, from 1:30 PM. Singer-songwriter Pete Bregman will perform during this event.
To close the year and mark the approaching end of the exhibition, there will be a closing event on December 28, from 1:30 PM.
We look forward to welcoming you!
