Van Gogh AiR heeft het genoegen u uit te nodigen voor de opening van de tentoonstelling van Samuel Sarmiento op zondag 27 oktober 2024 om 15.00 in de Van GoghGalerie, Sint Elisabethlaan 1a Zundert.

Samuel Sarmiento heeft in oktober gewerkt in het gastatelier van het Van GoghHuis. De resultaten daarvan worden tot eind november gepresenteerd in de Van GoghGalerie.

‘The concepts of north and south, as well as up and down, are subjective constructions. So coming from an island in the north of South America, I decided to visit the birthplace of the painter Vincent van Gogh, who was born in the south but always lived closer to the sky than the earth. Seeking to understand the landscape and the light, I can define my experience at Van Gogh AiR as a starting point in my work to develop a universal language that uses everyday life to build sacred stories. During this time of creation, I understood Vincent’s importance not only as an artist but also as a human and a living archetype of a person ahead of his time’, aldus Sarmiento.
