EX²PO | OVERFLOW
October 18, 2024 – January 03, 2025
TAC Temporary Art Centre, Eindhoven
An exhibition created in collaboration with Philip Ross and TAC. The name ‘ex²po’ combines two words starting with ‘ex’: exhibition and exterior.
The street is transformed into a canvas, upon which visual art is created using light. These light drawings alter your perception of the street, while the street simultaneously influences how you experience the drawings.
Several TAC artists showcase their work through ex²po, continuously bringing new meaning to this everyday environment.
Flow is central to the work of Gam Bodenhausen, Diewke van den Heuvel and Roos Vogels; three artists, exploring the ever-changing landscapes of their environment. Overflow reflects the artist’s fluid engagement with encountered nature scenes, which transform, overlay, and reconstruct creating a unique interpretation of the original image. Engaging with the light installation, you will discover how Diewke, Gam, and Roos form a profound connection to the places they visit and create drawings, collages, and photographs.
Free entry

TOEKOMSTKIJKERS
Opened the 5th of July 2024
Citadel, project in public space, ‘s-Hertogenbosch
What happens when you ask two celebrated artists to create an art project that connects the historic city center with the new City Delta? The Municipality of Den Bosch posed this question to Maarten Baas and Ted Noten, resulting in the inspiring and innovative art project “Toekomstkijkers.”
This initiative, which highlights both the history and the future of the city, invites residents and visitors to look at the city in a new way.
“Toekomstkijkers” (viewers on the future) consists of five fixed stargazers, designed by Maarten Baas, with modern benches created by Ted Noten next to them. This unique artwork, located on the waterfront near the Citadel, provides not only a visual connection, but also a symbolic bridge between old and new, between the historic downtown and the new Bossche City Delta.
In addition, the artwork provides a glimpse into the future. The stargazers focus on small artworks by young, promising Bossche makers, selected by Maarten Baas. With this, Maarten and Ted literally look to the future, the new generation of artists, and put them in the spotlight.
The project will continue for at least three years, encouraging connection between the present and the future, bringing a new dynamic to the city.

With a suitcase filled only with the most necessary things, I’ll leave for two months to an artist in residency in Norway at the end of August.
It has long been my dream to visit Norway and experience its enchanting nature. I'm going to Norway without a concrete plan of what I'm going to make there. This is mainly because I get inspired by the landscape that surrounds me. All I know is that somewhere in my work there will most likely be trees. Trees are giants to me, but mountains are giants as well and unfortunately not found in the flat surfaces of the Netherlands. In Norway I’d like to meet these mountains and discover if they might be as indispensable to me as trees already are.
It will be 2 months back to the basics of creating and immerse myself in the world around me, nature, which will always be the primal source of my work.
If you want to follow my time there, keep an eye on my social media ;)

SEASONING SPRING - SENSES
March 17 – 18, 2023
Art house United Cowboys, Eindhoven
In the frame of 30 years Company in 2023, we present special programs and events. These programs revolve around connection, association and exchange; for these programs, we gladly invite people that have a special bond with United Cowboys. We start with Seasoning.
On March 17 and 18, Rob Schoonen - until recently chef of the arts department of ED - takes over the Art House to curate a Seasoning Special, under the title Senses
Rob Schoonen:
"Senses, is the title of the performance event that will be executed during two evenings by different dancers, fine art artists, a poet and a musician. The program came into being due to the exhibition I curated earlier: 'TOT HIER... en verder' at Pennings Foundation, mid 2022. The artistic team of United Cowboys was part of that exhibition and from there, fascinating talks arose between us, resulting in the full length performance evening ‘Senses’ that will be curated by me and presented, in the building of United Cowboys in Eindhoven”
Senses will form the leitmotiv througout the evening and was roadmap in searching the adequate artists and a coherent execution. Those are:
Roos Vogels, Eleni Ploumi, Elysia Mc Mullen, Ad van Aart, Evangelos Biskas V, Liesbeth Schreuder, Hanne Schillemans, Oscar van der Put, Marc Koppen, Merel Schoonen, Eulàlia Bergada.

Roos Vogels
December 23, 2022 – January 29, 2023
AVA Albert van Abbehuis, Eindhoven
In her work - which consists of installations, sculptures, drawings and photographs - Roos Vogels (Eindhoven 1992) tries to fathom nature. She studies natural appearances and experiments with growth mechanisms. The forest is her favourite place to work and serves as a source of inspiration. The tree as a living organism plays the leading role in this.
In her installations Roos stops the natural process for a moment - the natural life freezes into an artwork. Her installations and sculptures are like spatial drawings from branches and willow twigs. Through these works, she tries to approach the soul of the natural process of growing, blooming and dying and encompass the cycle of life and death in a poetic perspective.
Although her work is organic and sensual, it also demonstrates an attention to geometry, order and balance. This is evident from her works in graphite on burnt wood. The wood grains made more visible by burning and the intense soot-black of the charred material show Roos the way to metamorphose the pure wood into a drawing. The graphite drawing added after burning is the magnified bark of the tree taken away from its context and scale. The intense black acts as a window onto a limitless space, a transition from the tangible nature to the immaterial world.
Her work is like a tracking search for transformations but also in her own abilities to distil a work of art from that same nature. Exploring the possibilities is an ongoing process of discovery, destruction and rediscovery. This is how she unravels the wonder of nature and makes it real for us. Anaphora, in her vision, represents the tree as a living organism. The tree that keeps revealing itself in different capacities and becomes more and more meaningful. The tree that is approached by Roos, rediscovered, explored and transformed - again and again.

Collaborative art project
Curated by Maria Vtorushina
July 13 – 23, 2022
SEA Foundation, Tilburg
From The Battlefield is an exhibition program that amplifies the direct testimony of those who provide evidence of the war in Ukraine and those who are fighting to protect freedom and hope more broadly. By presenting words, notes, images, documents, and works of artists, curators, and thinkers, From the Battlefield investigates life’s simultaneously banal and aspirational qualities. Each work acknowledges in large or small ways that flickering illuminations and sparks of hope, when amplified through social efforts, can be built into powerful forces.
From The Battlefield focuses on the strength of making small decisions of dignity and freedom when also sacrificing for victory in the circumstances of war. Cultivating small and fragile experiences that help individuals and communities live through inhumane conditions (these experiences grow into volunteering, crowdfunding and self-organized initiatives) can be as significant as earning the world’s solidarity attention or receiving material and tactical support. And to find ways to live when loved ones are being killed is a form of resistance.
The programme was conceived by Maria Vtorushina who was invited for an emergency residency for artists and art labours through Artists at Risk.

Museum EICAS Preview, Deventer
From 27 May to 24 July, Museum EICAS Preview presents four artists.
You can recognize the ideas of the ZERO-movement in the everyday materials, simplicity and optimism of their work. But Matter over Mind mainly translates it to a new generation of artists. They do determine the framework but give the material the space to deviate from the original plan.
The popular saying “Mind over matter” puts will over matter. The idea is that - as long as you put your mind to something - the most impossible goal becomes achievable. It says something about our performance culture and the need to get a grip on the world around us. But what happens when we let go of that grip? What if we take a step back and create space for something to emerge on its own?

TAC Temporary Art Centre, Eindhoven
Bend the line – Being the line is a collaborative project between Roos Vogels and Gam Bodenhausen. Moving between worlds of the known and unknown, the artists will take you into their process of control, improvisation and doubt. The process-based installation with drawings and spatial work will grow and change as a stream of thought during this period of four weeks.
Roos and Gam’s work touches each other in subject matter and technique, but differs in approach. Light gray pencil drawings against jet black carbon. They move undisturbed between the lines that can be followed, diverted, transformed or influenced. Both work big, convincing and above all with a lot of patience. The hyper focus that arises during the making of these impressive works is palpable and invites further research.
