Contemporary Contemplations is an open exhibition format in the form of a travelling exhibition with a growing number of internationally active artists from the Netherlands and Germany. Initiated by Dutch artist Gerda Kruimer and German-Dutch artist René Eicke, the project began in 2018 at Arti et Amicitae in Amsterdam, followed by Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin, Kunsthaus in Erfurt, phk18 in Rotterdam and ACEC in Apeldoorn in 2019.
At Galerie Ursula Walter, 14 Dutch and 8 German artists will show their works. Three large-format works will be developed directly for the wall or window. The exhibition will focus on the common coding underlying all the participating artists and their partly similar abstract signatures against the background of the historical rupture between the "abstract West" and the "figurative East".
