Lus riba Nanzi

 

 

Opening Saturday December 10
Group exhibition about the legendary spider Nanzi till January 8

 

'Lus riba Nanzi', a group exhibition dedicated to a legendary character from our oral literature, Kompa Nanzi is showing this Holiday season in Landhuis Bloemhof. For this theme exhibition we asked our artists to depict what Nanzi means to them in a work of art. Does Nanzi still have a right to exist? Who or what is it?

So far, 16 artists have responded:  Aemy Niafeliz, Alejandra Cijntje, Annemieke Dicke, Anna Lies Bruens, Team Nieuwkerk & Nieuwenhuizen, Giovanni Abath, Gwen Anderson, Hilma Koelman, Jaimary Boon, Kati Qui, Margarita Haakmat, Marianne Hagedoorn, Pito Polo, Ruthson Cecilia, Solaica Leito and Tayenne Winklaar. They surprised us with a great variety of paintings, sculptures, installations and mixed media artworks inspired by Nanzi.

To give merit to the unpredictable character of Kompa Nanzi, we are approaching this exhibit differently and called it a growing exhibition. Artists who after visiting us feel inspired, can still enter their contribution during the month of December. In any case, we start with 16 art works and are anxiously waiting to see who else will participate.

Bloemhof Experience: A Night for the Roses

Night for the Roses Postponed
New Date Friday January 13, 2023

The Night for the Roses cultural festival, originally November 11, which was partially merged with some musicians of the Cathedral of Thorns Concert for the Roses planned for November 4, which regretfully had to be cancelled, is again postponed. In Papiamentu we say 'El a kai na awa', literary translated: 'It fell in the water.'

In close consultation with the performers, and the Ride for the Roses Foundation, it was decided to organize a new Night for the Roses multitalented festival to launch the first post-covid Ride for the Roses fundraising season. In January 2023 the ride will be back and the artists will perform in the week leading up to the evens on Friday January 13. Please keep in touch via our social media to be informed.
