The Colorfield Performance is a large land art project, initiated by visual artist Dirk Hakze. It is a collaborative project with many national and international artists. The underlying idea is, based on a common concept, having individual contributions merge into one large, colorful work of art.
Initially from May 19 – medio September 2020, but has been postponed for the second time until 2022
Spatial work in the Monastery Garden of the Elburg Museum during the whole season, in the frame of the Vestingval Elburg in May 2022.

Silence in time of turmoil
My explanation and interpretation of art refers, among other things, to how to connect new expressions with existing images. This not only indicates the advancing development of art, but also my antagonistic experience of the arts. Assimilation of modern, sober forms with romantic expressions of art could result in an interesting synergy: a new pattern that scours, though nevertheless could be well-balanced. The result is, so to speak a new layer of which the total is more than the sum of the individual components. That I am trying in my spatial work, but also in this etching: capturing the silence in our time of turmoil.
November 24 – 2020 January 5
For the second time De Ploegh has organised a Wintersalon with work from 31 artists. Just like the salons of old in Paris the gallery will be filled from plinth to ceiling with pieces of art.
