Marie Jeanne de Rooij has the ambitious task to give both continuity and new impulses to this oldest of Dutch galleries.

It is remarkable that she didn’t choose to organize a big group show to close the ranks.

She clearly chose to close the ranks more aesthetically and substantively.
Auke de Vries
Her experience with big spaces obviously helped her in this big gallery, making one big show loosely based on one idea: landscape.

He also photographed ‘souvenirs’ from these places.
Awoiska van der Molen
Using photography as a more or less spiritual medium his works connect well with works by invited artist Awoiska van der Molen (1972) who internalises landscapes with this still more or less miraculous medium.

The few small works by Auke de Vries (1937), one of the doyens of the gallery (who has a big exhibition in Museum Beelden aan Zee at the moment), show sculpture as part of an invisible landscape.

As a whole this fine and strongly reflective show underscores the space – or the different spaces – of the gallery itself.
