(7 Mar 2019 - 23 Mar 2019) | | | |
‘Open
House’ on the Thursday-Night-Feature of March 7th
On Thursday March 7th Readytex Art
Gallery presents her third Thursday-Night-Feature (TNF) for the year 2019. On
the schedule this month, is a more casual and relaxing ‘Open House’ feature. So
no special speakers or presentations this time around, but just a nice evening
to truly enjoy beautiful art and good company. And the team of Readytex Art
Gallery did indeed, as they always do, take great care to install a beautiful and
diverse collection of art throughout the entire gallery.
For this ‘Open House’, the collection
displayed on the ground floor of the gallery is inspired by the upcoming Phagwa
holiday. This colorful holiday, an important part of the Hindustani culture, is
after all enjoyed by almost everybody in our inclusive, multi-cultural Surinamese
society. And although the art displayed in this space is not literally about Phagwa,
the collection, which consists mainly of abstract and colorful art works, does make
a beautiful, artistic link. Throughout the rest of the gallery you will be able
to, as always, enjoy a diverse collection of art works from all 19 artists
affiliated with the gallery. Each artist has his or her own spot in the space,
and such an ‘Open House’ event is the ideal opportunity to take the time to
really look at, and enjoy all that they have to offer.
Readytex Art Gallery invites all to join us
at this ‘Open House’ at the TNF of Thursday March 7th. A pleasant
evening filled with inspirational art and stimulating conversations for artists
and art lovers alike! The doors of Readytex Art Gallery are open from 7:00 –
9:00 pm on this evening.
You are welcome!

Dhiradj Ramsamoedj
In the past paintings by Dhiradj Ramsamoedj were mostly oils on canvas on which the paint was applied with a pallet knife. Now he paints mostly with a brush which results in a smooth, flat finish. The style has become less realistic and the people in his recent work have a completely different appearance. Humans still form the main theme in his work, but the faces of the characters now all have a similar, undefined shape in which the eyes, nose, mouth and other features are only hinted at subtly...

Leonnie van Eert
The artist finds her inspiration in natural
forms, with nature close to home, and in the use of symbols from different
cultures. Uses and forms from the Indigenous, Maroon and Javanese culture in
Suriname are close to the artist who also looks across Africa, Columbia and
Peru. An artwork usually comes from a sketch. The
end result does not have to be the same as the sketch shows.

It is special to make the world from
different perspectives. A blend of cultures that reflects the world from both

we have received from our ancestors and must cherish. That's what I'm trying to
express with my work.
