ernesto neto, multimedia kunstenaar
Ernesto Neto (1964)is een Braziliaans multimedia kunstenaar, die grote sculpturen maakt met het gebruik van diverse materialen, waaronder lycra, katoen en polyamide. Zijn kunst is een ervaring op zich. De kunstenaar maakt voortdurend gebruik van vormen die de ruimte aanraken, en de suggesties van sensualiteit zijn in een groot deel van zijn werk aanwezig.
Neto's werk wordt beschreven als "voorbij abstract minimalisme". Zijn installaties zijn grote, zachte, biomorfe sculpturen die kijkers kunnen aanraken, porren en door of doorheen kunnen lopen. Ze zijn gemaakt van wit, rekbaar materiaal - amorfe vormen gevuld met piepschuimkorrels of, bij gelegenheid, aromatische kruiden. In sommige installaties heeft hij dit materiaal ook gebruikt om doorschijnende 'scrims' te maken die de muren en de vloer van de ruimte transformeren. Zijn sculpturen kunnen worden beschouwd als een uitdrukking van de traditionele abstracte vorm, maar in hun interactie met de kijker werken ze ook op een ander niveau.

yinka shonibare 'laatste avondmaal'
![]() |
| Het laatste avondmaal |
Indrukwekkende installatie van (textiel) kunstenaar Yinka Shonibare in het LAMuseum op het landgoed van de Keukenhof in Lisse, Zuid-Holland, dat in 1919 haar deuren opende.
Het is een privémuseum opgezet door de familie Van den Broek, bekend van de supermarkten. Eten, drinken en winkelen staan er centraal. En bordjes hangen er niet, want die schrikken alleen maar af.
Van kunstenaar Yinka Shonibare staat er inmiddels permanent een werk. Hij maakte een gedekte tafel, zoals in 'Het laatste avondmaal' van Leonardo da Vinci, maar dan met Afrikaanse gewaden voor de apostelen. De stoffen zijn van de van oorsprong Nederlandse firma Vlisco, die hun Dutch Wax stoffen exporteert naar West-Afrika.

Shonibare is een Brits-Nigeriaanse kunstenaar. In zijn werk onderzoekt hij de culturele identiteit en het post-kolonialisme binnen de hedendaagse context van de globalisering. Dit doet hij in de vorm van schilderkunst, beeldhouwkunst, fotografie, installatiekunst en later ook film en performance.

expositie feminisme museum maasluis
Het was in de tijd van het radioprogramma 'Hoor Haar' van Hanneke Groenteman en van de feministische groep 'Dolle Mina'. Het was in die tijd dat ik werkte als vrijwilliger in het theehuis van de 'Toverbal'. De Toverbal, het jongerencentrum, dat door de weeks vooral bevolkt werd met jongens, die graag een meisje wilden ontmoeten. Vanuit het bestuur kwam de suggestie om 'iets' voor meiden te organiseren en samen met administratieve ondersteuner Saskia van Hese begon ik 'iets' voor meiden te organiseren. Iedereen was enthousiast en de jongens gaven alle medewerking. Er werd een prachtige poster gedrukt, een advertentie gemaakt en heerlijke kruidenthee geserveerd.
De meiden die het onconventionele jongerencentrum in het weekend bezochten waren druk met opleidingen, met banen en toonden weinig interesse in het initiatief. Zo ontstond in de spirit van de Toverballer van het eerste uur een vrouwencafé met feministische thema avonden. Er was geen extra budget en met boeken uit mijn boekenkast begon Saskia een vrouwenbieb op te zetten.
Het waren vooral moeders met kleine kinderen, die eind jaren 70 aan de oproep in de lokale krant gehoor gaven. Voor sommigen ging er een wereld open. De ontwikkeling van de vrouw stond centraal. De onvrede van de vrouw die geacht werd haar baan op te zeggen, als ze zwanger was. Ook kwamen thema's zoals 'Baas in eigen Buik', 'Zelfvertrouwen en Respect' aan bod. De avonden werden drukbezocht, maar niet door de doelgroep van het jongerencentrum. Dit resulteerde uiteindelijk in Vrouwenhuis SIEN op de Noordvliet, waar deze bijzondere expositie naar terugblikt.
U vraag zich misschien anno 2019 af waarom nu nog Feminisme? Dat is toch allang achterhaald? Er kan toch inmiddels het 100-jarige kiesrecht voor vrouwen gevierd worden? En vrouwen hebben banen, ze kunnen een flitsscheiding aanvragen, er zijn kinderdagverblijven en er zijn steeds meer vrouwen in de politiek actief. Maar helaas geacht publiek, volgens redelijk recente cijfers blijkt dat het moderne, tolerante Nederland hoog scoort als het gaat om geweld tegen vrouwen. In de EU heeft gemiddeld 1 op de 3 vrouwen te maken met geweld van een man. In Nederland is dat 1 op de 5. En dat zijn er 5 te veel.
Natuurlijk kan ik u met nog meer cijfers vermoeien, maar dat doe ik op deze feestelijke dag liever niet. De werkgroep is heel blij met de expositie die terugblikt, maar ook naar de toekomst kijkt.
Mocht u zin hebben om over feministische zaken te komen praten, dan is bijna 3 maanden lang iedere zaterdagmiddag van 15.00-17.00 uur iemand aanwezig op de benedenverdieping in de Podiumzaal. Er staat een kopje thee klaar. Ook kunt u de korte docu over drie initiatiefnemers van het vrouwenhuis bekijken. U kunt de feministische literatuur doorbladeren én de prachtige expositie nogmaals bezoeken. (lezing en kunstwerk van Ida Broekhart)

iris apfel, style icon
Iris Apfel (1921) is an American Jewish businesswoman, interior designer, and fashion icon. Apfel is the only child of Samuel Barrel, whose family owned a glass-and-mirror business, and his Russian-born wife, who owned a fashion boutique.
She studied art history at New York University and attended art school at the University of Wisconsin.
As a young woman, Apfel worked for Women's Wear Daily and for interior designer Elinor Johnson.
In 1948 she married Carl Apfel (1914-2015) Two years later they launched the textile firm Old World Weavers and ran it until they retired in 1992. From 1950 to 1992 Iris took part in several design restoration projects, including work at the White House for nine presidents.
Through their business, the couple began traveling all over the world where she began buying pieces of non-Western, artisanal clothes. She wore these clothes to clients' high-society parties. In 2011 Iris became a visiting professor at The University of Texas at Austin in its Division of Textiles and Apparel. In 2016, she performed in a television commercial for a French car and was the face of Australian brand Blue Illusion. In March 2016, Apfel announced a collaboration with technology startup WiseWear on an upcoming line of Smart Jewelry. In 2018 she published a book entitled Iris Apfel: Accidental Icon.
In 2019, at the age of 97, she signed a modeling contract with global agency.
'Let's face it, life can be dull; you might as well have a little fun with colour when you dress' is her motto.

Het fraai gelegen Douanehuisje met uitzicht op het Scheur herbergt in de maand mei de kunstenaars
Ida Brookhart en Jannie van Essen.
In hun mixed media kunstwerken maken beide kunstenaars een knipoog naar duurzaamheid. Zij hergebruiken allerlei materialen in hun kleurrijke borduurwerk, mixed media textielwerk, soft sculptures én draagbare kunst.
Ida Brookhart is geboren in Maassluis; ze volgde o.a. de opleiding aan de ABK Psychopolis in den Haag. Ida gaf jarenlang les in het middelbare beroepsonderwijs, was actief bij de Kunstroute Kralingen/Crooswijk Rotterdam en is lid van de kunstenaarsvereniging Krimpener Kunstwaard. Op haar blog www.idabrookhart.blogspot.com deelt ze haar visie op de ontwikkelingen over duurzaamheid, mixed media textielkunst en feminisme. Haar kunstwerken zijn gepubliceerd in zowel Nederlandse als Engelstalige media en werden tentoongesteld in binnen- en buitenland. Met haar kunstwerken wil ze aandacht vestigen op de intergenerationele balans. Brookhart werkt veelal met (industrieel) afval, dat ze verwerkt in haar objecten. Daarnaast focust ze op het thema vrijheid en dit in het bijzonder voor vrouwen. Parallel aan deze expositie wordt vanaf 11 mei t/m 4 augustus ook werk van Brookhart tentoongesteld in Museum Maassluis, Zuiddijk 16-18. Officiële opening op zaterdag 11 mei om 11.00 uur.

Fascinated by Claudy Jongstra’s scientific research with Artechne Project (European Research Council) led by Sven Dupré
into the late medieval color black and with great respect for Jongstra’s eco-aware practice and holistic mission for a better planet, Viktor&Rolf have created a series of sculptural black felt coats in an array of voluminous shapes.

Constructed of Jongstra’s trademark woollen felt textures dyed in black, not just any black, but the intriguing#BurgundianBlack, with its many shades and tones centring on the darkest color in the spectrum. In a gently simmering cauldron with plant pigments, artist-alchemist Jongstra benefits from her ‘secret knowledge’ and long experience in experimentation to re-discover the long lost process of procuring this famous 'Burgundian Black': the most complex and precious of true blacks based solely on natural ingredients and ancient recipes.

amsterdam rainbow dress

The Amsterdam Rainbow Dress is a living work of art, made of all the national flags from countries where homosexuality is illegal, on penalty of imprisonment, torture or capital punishment.
The Amsterdam Rainbow Dress has as a foundation the goal to encourage debate and awareness about inclusion and equal rights throughout the planet.
This iconic work of art in the shape of a dress encourages actively defending and celebrating the acquisition and institutionalization of freedom, while at the same showing the still disconcerting state of human rights in many parts of the world.
In addition to their ongoing projects, the Amsterdam Rainbow Dress Foundation strives to cooperate with governmental, corporate and other civic organizations in order to reach mutual goals and develop programs aimed at diversity an inclusion.

sheila hicks tapestry
Though her celebrated tapestries now hang in museums across the world, those she designed in 1967 for the Ford Foundation building in Manhattan have always been special to the textile artist Sheila Hicks.
A balance of detailed intricacy and monumental scale, they were made with an understated, honey-colored thread that warmed, but did not overwhelm, the rooms in which they hung and were important early works in what has stretched into a long career.
“In the ’60s, there were alternatives,´ Ms. Hicks said in an interview at the foundation building. “Rothko was alive. You could have brought color in here.” Instead, she opted for a subdued tone, so people “could spend hours in the room in meetings” without feeling an assault on the senses. But while being fireproofed sometime in the 1980s, the tapestries were saturated with a caustic chemical. Threads rotted, crisped and popped, and the work also suffered the wear and tear of time as people leaned or brushed their bags against them. “There was no reversal,” Ms. Hicks said of the damage.
“For 10 years, I’d been hearing about it: ‘What are we going to do?’ ” Ms. Hicks said. “The only thing I could do was roll up my sleeves and assemble a team.”
It is far from common for an artist to revisit the site of a commission to recreate the work of decades past. In Ms. Hicks’s case, the effort is particularly unusual.
She turned 85 in July. She lives in Paris. She had to finance much of the project herself. And at this stage in her career, she had nothing to prove.
“Even though everyone was against my doing this,” she said, “I thought it was a great way to go.”

vrouwenhuis maassluis expositie
In mei 2019 wordt in het Museum Maasluis een expositie geopend over het Feminisme in Maassluis. De expositie blikt terug, maar toont ook het nu.
Eind jaren 70 van de 20ste eeuw werd er een vrouwencafé geopend in het jongerencentrum de Toverbal. Toen de vrouwenbeweging begin jaren 80 begon te groeien kon er met subsidie vrouwenhuis "SIEN" geopend worden op een andere locatie. Dat huis heeft ongeveer 15 jaar bestaan met succesvolle activiteiten en thema's zoals 'Baas in eigen Buik', FORTherapie, VOSamenleving en Feministische Theologie. Ook was er een kleine vrouwenbieb.
In 2018 werden er documenten en foto's bij een verhuizing op zolder gevonden en is er het initiatief onstaan om alle gegevens te documenteren, met als resultaat een actieve tentoonstelling in het museum: foto's, kunst, film en meer.

Valentina Stefanescu, hoofddocent aan de Arts & Design Faculty West University Timisoara, organiseert de Internationale Biënnale Miniature-kunst 2018 in Roemenië.
Op uitnodiging zijn twee textiele werkjes van Ida Brookhart Contemporary Art aan de Biënnale jury voorgedragen en goedgekeurd voor deelname.
Vanwege de viering van het 100-jarige bestaan van het Nederlandse vrouwenkiesrecht in 2019 kreeg het project, waarvan de twee werkjes onderdeel zijn, 'Onafhankelijke vrouwen' als naam. Het kunstproject bestaat uit een aantal geborduurde mini-textiel kunstwerkjes met vrolijke vrouwen en verschillende beroepen. Het is een pleidooi voor wereldwijd goed onderwijs voor meisjes, zodat zij een beroep kunnen kiezen en onafhankelijke vrouwen kunnen worden.

ida broekhart contemporary art in galerie 'lokaal 54' .
Van 7 juli tot 20 augustus 2018 exposeert Ida Brookhart Contemporary Art met mixed media schilderijen in galerie 'Lokaal 54' in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen.
Terneuzen is de geboortestad van Mathilde Willink-Doelder. Tijdens deze zomer tentoonstelling met als thema 'Mathilde' vertegenwoordigen 3 galeries totaal 38 kunstenaars met schilderijen, beelden, foto's, textiel en sieraden. De kunstwerken zijn geinspireerd op fotomodel Mathilde Willink. In de jaren 70 van de vorige eeuw was zij de muse van beeldend kunstenaar Carel Willink en modeontwerpster Fong Leng. De jonge, mooie, intelligente Mathilde gedroeg zich als een levend kunstwerk en zorgde er met die houding voor dat Willink en Leng wereld beroemd werden.
De gevarieerde tentoonstellingen zijn zeer de moeite waard om te bezoeken. De eigenaresse van galerie 'Lokaal 54', kunstenares Anne Mannaerts, heeft ook nog eens haar atelier met assemblage beelden open gesteld. In het café op de bovenverdieping van de galerie, met kunst aan de muur en sieraden in de vitrines, kan een drankje worden genuttigd.
- Galerie/atelier/kunstcafé Lokaal 54, Nieuwstraat 54 Terneuzen.
Open van woensdag t/m zondag van 13.00 - 18.00 uur. Telefoon: 06-57800847

| Berthe Moriset: vrouw met kind |
Henriëtte Faas van uitgeverij De Brouwerij geeft een dichtbundel uit van de Vlaamse dichteres Ina Stabergh over de Franse kunstenares en feministe Berthe Morisot (1841-1895). Morisot was tijdgenoot van de schilders Degas, Manet, Monet, Pissaro en Renoir. Zij was de eerste vrouw die zich aansloot bij de groep impressionisten en dat was in die tijd ongewoon voor een vrouw. Ondanks de protesten van familieleden en vrienden bleef zij streven naar erkenning van haar kunstvorm. Ook ging zij ging dwars tegen de normen en waarden in door haar passie voor de schilderkunst in praktijk te brengen.
Ina Stabergh publiceert sinds 1981 proza. In 1983 debuteerde zij met poëzie in literaire en andere tijdschriften. Haar werk werd vaak bekroond, vertaald en meerdere keren uitgevoerd door bekende koren en dirigenten.

| OPZIJ-redacteuren Iris Mayer en Melissa Casu met Guerilla Girls Zubeida Agha en Frida Kahlo |
OPZIJ sprak onlangs Zubeida Agha en Frida Kahlo, twee van de Guerrilla Girls. Deze groep feministische activisten met vaste kern en wisselende samenstelling zet zich al meer dan dertig jaar in voor diversiteit in de kunstwereld. De namen die de leden dragen, namelijk die van overleden vrouwelijke kunstenaars, zorgen er samen met de gorillamaskers voor dat de Guerilla Girls, zelf ook kunstenaars, anoniem blijven. Ter gelegenheid van Internationale Vrouwendag waren zij in Nederland en bezochten het MaMa Cash festival in het Stedelijk Museum, waar zij spraken over hun werk en het belang daarvan.
'Feministes worden vaak van klagen beschuldigd. In plaats van ervoor weg te rennen, gingen jullie met het concept aan de haal door een Complaints Department in Tate Modern te openen. Mensen konden hier terecht om op creatieve wijze te klagen over alles wat ze dwars zat. Waarom kozen jullie ervoor het klagen tot een kunst te verheffen?' Zie het hele interview door Iris Mayer en Melissa Casu in Opzij 15 maart 2018
Opzij is een Nederlands feministisch maandblad, opgericht in 1972 door Wim Hora Adema en Hedy d'Ancona als radicaalfeministisch maandblad. (Hedy d'Ancona was o.a. PvdA-minister, lid 1ste Kamer en Europees parlement)

expo jannie van essen, textielkunstenaar
![]() |
| Jannie van Essen: foto Ida Broekhart |
Vanaf 5000 tot 3000 jaar v. Chr. werd textiel in Europa verfraaid met borduursels. De Nederlandse Kunstenares Jannie van Essen heeft een passie voor textielwerk en gebruikt daarin vaak het eeuwenoude medium borduren. Deze manier van handwerk is een tijdrovende maar meditatieve bezigheid waarbij Jannie, zoals ze zelf zegt, 'kunstzinnige eitjes uitbroedt'.
Jannie studeerde in de jaren 80 aan de pionierende textielafdeling van de Willem de Kooning academie te Rotterdam. Nadat de naaldkunst zoals borduren, macramé, breien en haken decennia lang alleen voor oude omaatjes was, is deze kunstvorm aan een revival bezig. Ze is weer terug van weg geweest en zelfs hot & happening. Over de hele wereld is er belangstelling voor textiele kunst, het grote aantal kunstboeken en tentoonstellingen in vooraanstaande musea.
Qua kunst leven we anno 2018 in een periode van anarchie. In het vrije Westen is alles op dat gebied geoorloofd. En hoewel in de oudheid deze kunstvorm een mannen aangelegenheid was, kan vandaag de dag zowel klassiek als abstract textielwerk door iedereen toegeëigend worden.
De luchten van Jannie van Essen hebben een dromerige uitstraling. Er is een vogel die van het doek af wil vliegen. In die wereld begeef ik me graag. Niet voor niets zal het sprookjesachtige een leidend thema zijn in onze duo-tentoonstelling, die in het Douanehuisje van Maassluis georganiseerd wordt.
April/mei 2018 Jannie van Essen in het 'groene' Nivonhuis, Dirk Smitsstraat 76, Rotterdam. Openingswoord door Ida Brookhart.

how to be an artist, according to georgia o’keeffe
![]() |
| picture O'Keeffe for LOOK 1960 by Tony Vaccaro |
“The notion that you can make an artist overnight, that there is nothing but genius, and a dash of temperament in artistic success is a fallacy,” American artist Georgia O’Keeffe (1887-1986) asserted in 1928. The year before, she’d been given her successful first retrospective at the Brooklyn Museum. But O’Keeffe wasn’t done developing as an artist—or contemplating what it meant to be one. “Great artists don’t just happen, any more than writers, or singers, or other creators,” she continued. “They have to be trained, and in the hard school of experience.”
Lesson 1: Observe the world around you—closely, hungrily
Through this process of close looking, O’Keeffe sought to communicate the essence of her surroundings: “It is only by selection, by elimination, by emphasis,” she said in 1922, “that we get at the real meaning of things.”
Lesson 2: Organization is key to productivity
She kept her studios, her palette and brushes clean and neat. The palette is on a table she can wheel about—another one is on the window sill—the easel is by the window—another easel is on the window sill. One ten foot table is full of canvas and stretchers and hammers and tacks—then there is a small table full of little pieces of canvas covered cards painted tones of all the colors she has.
Lesson 3: Don’t sweat mistakes—learn from them
She painted the patio door of her New Mexico home more than 20 times. “I have a single-track mind. I work on an idea for a long time,” she told art historian Katharine Kuh. “Success doesn’t come with painting one picture. It results from taking a certain definite line of action and staying with it,” she continued.
Lesson 4: Pay no attention to trends—be yourself
O’Keeffe desired freedom—from artistic trends, from the pressures of the mainstream art world, from the fetters of a male-dominated society. And it was by bucking expectations that she made a unique and revolutionary body of work. “I believe in having everything and doing everything you want,” she once wrote, “if you really want to—and if you can in any possible way.” O’Keeffe lived her dream uncompromisingly and ecstatically.
