Platforms Project 2022 is taking place in October this year. To develop their ideas, EX-MÊKH decided to do some woodshedding to develop new ideas and to produce a teaser for it’s presentation in Athens!
Platforms Project 2022
Con alma – evaluation
To accompany the exhibition we asked Ben Faydherbe to make a small booklet with the work of all three of us. Our secret member did great and the booklets we took were gone before the end of the fair! We are getting a nice set of little booklets.
Back in Holland after a satisfying presentation by EX-MÊKH at the Hybrid Art Fair in Madrid life continues. In between other projects Kees wrote some reports about Madrid. On chmkoome’s blog he published daily reports. He also wrote a report on ARCO on the Art-site for Den Haag Jegens & Tevens . You can find EX-MÊKH’s exhibition at the Hybrid Art Fair on the EX-MÊKH site under exhibitions.
Reporters mentioned Con Alma in reports in on-line magazines ( Liceo Magazine for instance) and lots of pictures of our work showed on social media.
Con Alma
Today we discovered a post of the Hybrid Art Fair in Madrid which will start in three weeks. It is coming near and we look forward to visiting the other fairs in the Madrid Art Week: ARCO, JUST MAD-Art Fair, Drawing Room and Art Madrid.
The title of EX-MÊKH’s exhibition will be Con Alma. We take the soul of the collaboration of Ellen Rodenberg, Maarten Schepers and me into the hotel room of the Petit Palace Hotel. We change this room into a mirror for our public to reflect on!
Hybrid Art Fair
EX-MÊKH will participate in the Hybrid Art Fair in Madrid from Februari 24 to 27. The fair is held in a hotel in the centre of the city and participants are expected to exhibit in hotelrooms. We will present work under the name Con alma trying to give the neutral and functional hotelroom a soul, the soul of EX-MÊKH!
In the mean while publicity for participants is starting as you can see on this page!

EX-MÊKH has been working on a new site and after having great holidays in which we did some “woodshedding’ on the Veluwe we put the site on-line yesterday. All the exhibitions since 2014 are on the “exhibitions”-page, we will continue to work to get the exhibitions from 2006 onwards on the site.
Hybrid Art Fair
Last November EX-MÊKH was invited for the Hybrid Art Fair in Madrid. We already heard nice stories about this fair so we decided to apply. The fair is held in an old hotel in the centre of Madrid:
This Fair is also part of the side program of ARCO Madrid and the Madrid Art week
A new EX-MÊKH site!
After long deliberations, and because the surferspace for the old site was not available any more, we started to look for possibilities for a new site. The old software (Microsoft Frontpage) was long out of date and couldn’t be handled by the new versions of Microsoft anymore. So now we are trying to get this done, the new site is under construction.
