CRMCS#3
A selection of contemporary ceramics

With the group exhibition 'CRMCS#3', gallerist Elke Helbig and curator/artist Kris Campo pay tribute to the expressive power, sensuality, tactility, spectacle value and visual richness of the medium of clay. It's a surprising combination of work with different perspectives.

Playdate
Christophe Coppens

With 'Playdate', Christophe Coppens takes you to a former hideout, his old playroom. His childhood is a recurring theme for the artist, but never before has he focussed so radically on the days when he could still go and retreat carefree while the world outside rushed by.

Ijsberen
Svelte Thys

Svelte Thys's works have painting itself as their subject. They are an investigation of the properties and limits of painting, an investigation of how painting itself can become an image. Wandering through matter and memories, this series of new works by Svelte Thys are a pleasant moment of linger, a request by the artist to the viewer and herself to return and take the time, to ponder.

An apple can't be tired
Pieter Jennes

In 'An apple can't be tired', Pieter Jennes his first institutional solo show, the artist shows a new series of paintings, drawings and unique textile sculptures. The works are loosely based on the 'Bulldozer exhibition', an exhibition that took place in a Moscow park in 1974, featuring work by non-conformist, underground artists. Because these artists were considered enemies of the system, the exhibition was ended by a large police force dressed as green workers, using bulldozers and water cannons.​​​​​​​​
