Wild Care Tame Neglect

Exhibition by visual artist Edward Thomson Clydesdale at Huize Frankendael Amsterdam

What possible agency and space do (tamed) nature and culture occupy within this former country estate surrounded by the busy city, a site that now actively serves as a restaurant and reception location. Is it possible for art in such a location to escape an ever-present aesthetic harmony? What role and whose desires does an artist fulfil in a scenario where they act as host, gardener, programmer and hermit?

The exhibition gathers works by Thomson as well as of literary theorist Frans-Willem Korsten and artists Jason Coburn, Nikola Lamburov and Ine Lamers. Designers Sandra Kassenaar and Bart de Baets developed a poster campaign during a public workshop programme with de 5e Montessorischool Watergraafsmeer, colleagues and visitors. The exhibition design by EventArchitectuur cleverly reframes the garden of Huize Frankendael itself as an architectural structure for the showing of art.

Forest Idyll in Lingezegen Park

Forest idyll forms a trio with the Mountain idyll & Water idyll.
This idyll is still in the design stage, the other two are ready to be executed in the park called Lingezegen. This park of 1200 acres is located between two Dutch towns, Arnhem & Nijmegen. The forest idyll design is proposed now on a former castle garden in the village of Ressen, Lingewaard. The location might be changed, not the concept.

Designed in cooperation with landscape architect Astrid Harsveld from DLG.
