The exhibition BAKSTEEN pays tribute to the brick with work by more than fifty artists, architects and designers from the Netherlands and abroad. Among them are the Belgian artists Olivier Goethals, Wim Delvoye, Ronny Delrue and Filip Dujardin. In new and existing work they show the beauty and expressiveness of fired stone. BAKSTEEN can be seen from 10 September in Kunsthal KAdE, the Elleboogkerk and via a tour of Amersfoort with new folly's and existing buildings.
Judith van Meeuwen, exhibition curator:
"The appeal of brick walls is anchored in thousands of variations in size, shape, colour, texture and repetition. But it is also the intrinsic layering that makes the material unique. The same brick that gives someone a sense of security can serve as a weapon in an uprising."
