Grid and Ritual, Havendijk 80, Gorinchem, The Netherlands
Work by Henk van Gerner April 26 – May 24, 2009 Rhythm and repetition form the common characteristic features of the exhibitors works. Within this connection is looked for variation and contrast. So the well-considered grouped paintings of Frans Vendel and Go de Graaf are opposite the obsessive, in rhythmical strokes, constructed canvasses of Jerry Keizer. The monumental paintings of Tonneke Sengers show fixed and controlled, while Sanne Bruggink uses a free and lively language. [...]

Piet Tuytel: 51° 34′ 4″ N 5° 4′ 29″ E, Museum De Pont, Tilburg, The Netherlands
March 21 – May 17, 2009 Some sculptures appropriate space, while others structure and define it. The works of Piet Tuytel (Alblasserdam, 1956) are among the latter sort. Tuytel likes the flat landscape of the polders, whose emptiness is made palpable by the occasional appearance of a farm or a power pylon. At times even those sparse elements are missing and you need—as he says—to start slamming poles in the ground in order to [...]
