This year, Expo and Galerie Bart are celebrating a twenty-year milestone in the art world.
This year, Expo and Galerie Bart are celebrating a twenty-year milestone in the art world. In 2003, Bart started out with a vision of wanting to provide young artists with a space to tell their stories and present their artworks. When opening his first gallery Bart kunst in huis close to home, he knew that he wanted to set up shop in the capital, closer to “the action”. He needed less than five years to make that a reality. Over the course of the following years, the original branch left the fairs and sales to the Jordanese outpost in order to establish a space for large-scale projects and artistic experiments instead.
Some name changes, address changes and twenty years later, Expo Bart in Nijmegen and Galerie Bart in Amsterdam are places embedded in the core of the Dutch art landscape, where everyone is welcome to enjoy and admire contemporary art by artists both young and young at heart.
To celebrate this, we will open a jubilee exhibition on Thursday 29 June 2023. Discover a big variety of artworks created by artists we collaborate with. The artworks presented have a symbolic size of 20 x 20 cm and will exclusively be shown at our gallery. So be sure to be the first one to check them out during the festive opening. This event will also be a unique opportunity to have a drink with the artists themselves as most will be present during the opening!
In addition, we are organizing special events during our Jubilee year, from the reopening of Expo Bart in Nijmegen, to studio visits and a artist talk by one of our artists.
