The beautiful object
This exhibition shows the work of artists that produce ’beautiful objects’. Most of them are unique pieces, while others are pro-duced in small series. They all have the capacity to influence the viewer by their beauty.
Aldo Bakker shows his design pieces, that are remarkable for his defiant refusal to be classified by time, fashion or zeitgeist. They show his desire to solve a practical problem but always originate from his fascination for a form.
Babs Haenen’s work is based on the pot form. She constructs intricate works with small pieces of porcelain, that she combines into impressive sculptural pieces. They contain human forms or refer to color schemes of expressionistic or abstract paintings.
Barbara Nanning finds her inspiration in nature and shows in this exhibition works from the series ’eternal spring’ which refers to the blooming at the start of the spring and newer work, based on her well-known forms but with the use of different colored glass rods in combination with alexandrite to give the objects a colorful look.
Ann Van Hoey constructs her vessels with flawless order and ge-ometric logic. The origami-like incisions that interrupt the pure form of the circle express her will to reach perfection and contrib-ute to a new purity. In her latest work, ‘Earthenware Ferrari’, she applies car coating on her ceramics, which results in spectacular pieces.
The exhibition runs from 26.12.2015 until 27.03.2016 and is open on weekends between 14:00-16:00 hours or after appointment (++32((0)494285894).
