For our upcoming gallery exhibition, we have chosen to focus on the element fire. Throughout the history of mankind, fire has been vital to the existence of humans, as well as being the key to progress. Man has been sustained and nurtured by fire – as it has always been used for cooking, warmth and of course the creation of ceramic vessels and works of art.
Our guest exhibition is of work by the talented contemporary artist Désirée Engelen from her Gardens of Fire series. In this work she uses fire and gunpowder to create flowers and gardens on canvas.
We will have various talks and handling sessions throughout the weekend. Due to the limited space of the talks, please let us know if you would like to attend: info@vanderven.com
