De Zwarte Ruyter is pleasured to announce a exhibition by
Hans Wilschut and Johan Thom.

In 2008 Johan Thom (1976 Johannesburg) and Hans Wilschut (1966

Ridderkerk) collaborated on various projects. Now their ongoing
friendship and professional dialogue brings them together in
Rotterdam in an exhibition influenced by each other’s work and
interests. Wilschut’s video work ‘Lemniscate’ will be exhibited in one
area of De Zwarte Ruyter. In another area Thom will create a
performance in part as a response thereto and in part as an extension
of their ongoing dialogue.
Wilschut’s newest book publication “Still Motion” will be also be
available for signing by the artist.

De Zwarte Ruyter is a new research and presentation space for
contemporary art and visual culture which wants to take a precise
role within the Rotterdam art world and far beyond. De Zwarte Ruyter
operates from the belief that new expressions of art, the development
of new or alternative ideas can best be developed in a free and
informal but critical environment. Additionally De Zwarte Ruyter is
home to BookCase a bookstore for artist books, publications, editions
magazines which are published by the artist without a publisher.

Be very welcome and for additional information please contact
De Zwarte Ruyter.
