THE CURATORS ROOM – AMSTERDAM CHAPEL
Inaugural exhibition
’11+11=22’
FRANS FRANCISCUS
(Curated by Gabriel Rolt for The Curators Room)
11 November 2022 – 01 January 2023

Location:
The Curators Room – Amsterdam Chapel
Prinses Irenestraat, 19
AMSTERDAM
The Curators Room is pleased to present 11+11= 22 by Frans Franciscus, a solo exhibition curated by Gabriel Rolt dedicated to the oeuvre of the Dutch painter whose career has been centered on reconfiguring canonical structures present throughout the history of European painting. Working in a classical tradition of portraiture and landscape, the artist continues in this legacy through figurative works that span both flatwork and ceramic sculptures. His body of work concerns biblical references which he reimagines often with an autobiographical flair.
This show helps bring into the world and inaugurate the new temporary exhibition space, The Curators Room – Amsterdam Chapel, which dialogues with The Curators Room – La Oficina, the only permanent space of the project which opened in Barcelona last April. Franciscus’ show will be held in the new temporary space from the 11th of November to the 1st of January 2023 and serves as a loose anthology of his work in the past 20 years. It suggests a curious chronology given that the artist almost entirely stopped painting 6 years ago in favor of an unexpected shift of focus from painting to clay. Only in the last year has the artist reconciled with his painting practice.
THE CURATORS ROOM – MOYA
MOYA (museum of young art) Oosterhout, adopted The Curators Room for the upcoming months. We will open with two exhibitions: ‘Most Normal’ , a solo show by Amsterdam Based artist Bas Geerts together the group exhibition ‘Wat voel je nou’ with works by Daria Birang, Juan Narowé, Lisette Ros, Javier Ruiz Perez, Paul du Bois-Reymond, Bas Geerts, Cesc Abad, Freddy Tratlehner, Nathaniel Bolarinwa, Eduardo Millan and Jose Bonell. This school-reunion -like exhibition marks a few highlights of The Curators Room ‘s presentations since our very first exhibition a year ago. We are very excited about this new cooperation. Stay tuned! Hand in hand with the exhibition, there is a program full with performance, music and food in the works.

‘Most Normal’
BAS GEERTS
(Curated by Gabriel Rolt)
The Curators Room – MOYA is proud to announce Most Normal, a solo exhibition by Amsterdam based artist Bas Geerts.
The question at the core of Bas Geerts‘ practice is the timeless discourse on mimesis: how to represent reality. What interests him the most is however not the actual material world, but the digital one (even if one could ask whether such a distinction can be truly made, nowadays). His works serve as a possible way of translating the digital realm, ubiquitous and contemporary filter of our life, onto a concrete and tangible surface. To do so, Geerts employs precisely what today’s technology has to offer: digital instruments. During the years, he developed a computer program able to transform technological algorithms into organic designs, shapes and forms of unpredictable format.

Laura Hermanides – ‘Anahit’

Room #312

LAURA HERMANIDES
ANAHIT
The Curators room is delighted to announce the participation at Loop Barcelona 2022 with the international art world’s premiere of ‘Anahit’, a new video work by Dutch filmmaker Laura Hermanides, curated by Gabriel Rolt.
Imaani, a victim of sexual violence, relives a post-traumatic episode when she enters a swimming pool, where vulnerability and fear are expressed through a delicate and magnificent body language. The water goddess of fertility, wisdom and healing, Anahit, encourages her to use dance as a tool for the reappropriation of her body. Movement takes a central role in the therapeutic process. Breathing sets the rhythm of alertness, through short but deep breaths of air traveling back, little by little, to the young woman’s memory.
The process of fighting against her own demons leads Imaani to a physical exhaustion that she will only resolve by shouting at her inner noise. The element of water, present attribute of the deity, accompanies her as the natural force of life. Reliving the event with impetuous courage she faces the predator, becoming the owner of her being, devouring it. Her calm is finally restored and she retakes her place within the group, melting her inner hostility into power.
Hermanides manages to build an emotional bridge between the audience and the protagonist, transgressing her emotions and impacting those of the spectator. She firmly portrays her triumph facing the enemy.
