Lost in Pictura

About this activity.

Carte Blanche for young artists in Pictura

Summer closure? Pictura skips it this year. 
Pictura gives two young professional artists this sommer the chance to realise a common project called Lost. 
The project has a focus on vulnerability and cooperation.
Two sounds that should be heard more in our society, according to Sterre van Bommel en Fleur Versleijen. They both graduated from Academie Minerva in 2024.
The works the two artists make is the embodiment of this vision.
At the exhibition we see the result of bringing together two methods of working and learning to trust each other,listen and give space to the other.

With "Lost' van Bommel and Versleien want the spectator to be inspired to be softer and more understanding towards others.
To give more space to diversity and its beauty.
The spectator is invited to observe with an open mind.
What memories, events and feelings come up? What can we learn from that?

Extra: in one of the rooms in Pictura is a mini exhibition with works from Annabel Adema, Josefien Adema en Fleur Eijckelhof. They worked on the theme vulnerability.

There will be an artshop where you can buy a diversity of works.

Opening 31 July at 19 hrs.A welcome with food and drinks and music from Piter Boonstra.
Wednesday 5 & 12 August: workshop Together painting on one canvas.  (14.00 hr)

Every Saturday and Sunday guided tour around the exhibition.

Pictura.

Het Kunstlievend Genootschap Pictura in Groningen werd opgericht in 1832 met als doel: 'de beeldende kunst en de nijverheidskunst in de ruimste zin van het woord aan te moedigen en te bevorderen.' Pictura is gehuisvest in een mooi, monumentaal pand aan het Martinikerkhof in Groningen. In de sfeervolle zalen exposeren professionele kunstenaars van uiteenlopende richtingen en disciplines, maar de hoofdmoot is figuratief.
