“Open House”

On Thursday May 4^th Readytex Art Gallery opens her doors for what is already the 5^th Thursday-Night-Feature of this year. After the large solo exhibition of John Lie A Fo, which had its grand opening on Thursday the 6th of April, we have scheduled a more relaxed activity for the TNF of this month. We welcome all of our guests to join us in the gallery for a special ‘Open House’ evening during which they can enjoy another beautiful selection of our varied art collection. Noteworthy this month is that the exhibition on the first floor has been put together by one of our own most experienced artists Kenneth Flijders, in this case fulfilling the role of guest curator.

At the last ‘Open House’ exhibition held on the March TNF the curator task was assigned to artist Rinaldo Klas and it is now the turn of his good friend and colleague to fulfill this role. The choices made by Kenneth Flijders are based upon a specific theme. He selected artworks that broadly reflect upon social circumstances in Suriname as well as in other countries abroad. The social circumstances portrayed are varied and the way in which each artist visualizes his or her theme is totally unique. This will undoubtedly result in a diverse and fascinating presentation. 

And while the guest curator took the exhibition on the first floor upon himself, the team at Readytex Art Gallery took on the responsibility of switching up the exhibitions in the rest of the gallery.

The ‘Open House’ on the Thursday-Night-Feature of May 4^th, gives art lovers the opportunity to enjoy, in good company, the wonderful ambiance of the gallery and the special collection of fine art displayed throughout. The team of Readytex Art Gallery and many of the artists, including of course Kenneth Flijders, will be present to answer any questions that you may have about the works of art. The doors of Readytex Art Gallery are open on this evening from 7:00 – 9:00 pm.

Everybody is welcome!
