Short description:
‘Trial and Errrorrr’ is an exhibition of ‘works in progress’, inviting 7 artists based in The Hague to present their ongoing projects. ‘Trial and Errrorrr’ aims to create a playground for new ideas, using the exhibition format as a testing ground for previously unseen performances, workshop trials, readings, technical experiments, or physically unfinished works. The exhibition brings together works by artists Beatrice Cera, Eilit Marom, Maitiú Mac Cárthaigh, Mar Fu Qi, Nienke Roth, Rosa van Walbeek and Valerio Conti. In the month preceding the exhibition, feedback gatherings and conversations were held; sharing insights, ideas and try-outs of works in process. These feedback sessions have been central to the curation of the exhibition. In this way, ‘Trial and Errrorrr’ is one outcome of these feedback moments. The exhibition aims to contribute support that is often missing for emerging artists and to fill a gap that is left after leaving the art academy, particularly that of artistic discussion, theoretical insight and critical reflection. With this in mind, ‘Trial and Errrorrr’ attempts to create a safe and collaborative space; a place for project development and experimentation whilst escaping preconceptions of what an exhibition should be. ‘Trial and Errrorrr’ is curated by ‘WaitingSnake Studios’, a curator duo based in The Hague run by Clara Sharell and Emily Stevenhagen. Their central goal is to build a supportive network of emerging artists, for and with each other, and create a new community in an art world that can be difficult to enter alone. Vernissage: 12 July: 18:00-21:00 Opening hours weekend: 13 & 14 July: 13:00 - 17:00

Maar in die doffe, zwarte nacht, als de wereld slaapt en alleen de sterren waken, voel ik me levendiger dan ooit.
- J. van Oudshoorn, Willem Mertens' levensspiegel

Jan Koos Feijlbrief looked the archetypical civil servant he was, his inner life and writings were those of a free thinker and sensitive soul. Under the name J van Oudshoorn he wrote some of the finest lines written in Dutch literature, about shame, guilt, alienation, inferiority, isolation and youthful infatuation. Over 70 years after he died, Jan Koos Feijlbrief alias J. van Oudshoorn, inspired 12 artists and a publisher to make work that will be on view from June 15 - July 7 at See Lab. Vernissage event June 15 at 17:00 hrs.

‘Murmurmurmurs’

See Lab hosted the exhibition ‘Murmurmurmurs’. Together, the four murs wanted to share their stories and tell them in whispers of their practice. Their exhibition showed their distinctive voices, invited to share more stories, and celebrated together to create a murmur of its own.

Murmurs were innocent and whooshing sounds that came straight from the heart. They were silent, yet telling. As such, the presenting artists contributed their own mur to the presentation of their collective Murmurmurmurs. The four distinctive voices told their own personal stories through their artistic practices. Without a need to scream, they instead whispered their tales in the ways that suited them best. In various forms, shapes, and sizes, they asked you to look and listen, and maybe say something back as well (if you would like to).

The exhibition opened on Friday, February 16th. The following Saturday, the 17th, the audience was welcomed to join the public event of shared storytelling in the exhibition space, and on Sunday, the 18th, a collective dinner closed the exhibition.
