Hybrid Art Fair 2024, evaluation

EX-MÊKH finished their exhibition at the Hybrid Art Fair 2024 with satisfaction. We were excited about the reception of our work and the way we presented it was very much appreciated. You can see pictures of the exhibition here! We met a lot of interesting people, some of whom were interested in presenting our work in Magazines or in galleries in Menorca or Las Palmas. We will see where that will lead us.

The welcome drinks after setting up the exhibition

Our stay in Madrid was very inspiring. We visited several exhibitions: Ulla von Brandenburg in the Palacio de Vélazquez, The Thyssen Bornemisza Museum, The Prado again, Kees visited ARCO 2024 and the three of us visited the Reina Sofia Museum with a surprisingly interesting exhibition of Carlos Saura (post will soon follow in the blog). It was a very intense and awarding week!

EX-MÊKH Goes Madrid!

From 7 to 10 March 2024 EX-MÊKH will again participate in the Hybrid Art Fair. The fair is located in the Hotel Petit Palace in which the rooms will be exhibition-spaces. During the fair participants can also stay in these rooms which poses questions about art and privacy, the nature of artworks and the nature of hotelrooms. We will try to show relevant works for all these questions, processing our experience with Spanish culture and with working in Spain. It will be a challenge to continue finding appropriate images for these subjects as we tried to do in the 2022 edition of the Hybrid Artfair with the installation Con Alma.

Maarten Schepers and Ellen Rodenberg will benefit from their residency in Arteventura past fall. Kees Koomen has traveled extensively in Spain and enjoys classical and modern Spanish literature and cinematography immensely.
