BIG ART 2024 // Art van Triest + Gam Klutier
"Big, bigger, biggest. XL artworks and huge design objects."
From Friday September 27 to Sunday September 29 2024, MPV Gallery can be found at Het Slotervaart in Amsterdam during the 10th edition of art fair Big Art.
A big surprise awaits visitors on the 9th and 10th floors of Het Slotervaart, the distinctive cross building designed in 1975 by Bastiaan Johannis Odink. Eight wings of the building make up more than six thousand square meters of shell exhibition space. These shell floors of the former Slotervaart Hospital lend themselves ideally to the production of work on location. Here, the raw walls, floors and corridors act as a blank canvas for the artists. Grooves, old doors and holes become part of site-specific artworks.
Art van Triest builds a giant wooden structure in one of the former hospital corridors for the public to move around and through. Gam Klutier presents a gigantic floating two-sided artwork that, with its distinctive stylized figures, powerful lines and shapes in this rugged environment, is reminiscent of a modern echo of ancient cave art.
