An exhibition celebrating the Quadricentennial of the Dutch discovery and settlement of the Hudson River and its environs, the Hudson Valley Center for Contemporary Art (HVCCA), in Peekskill, New York, will showcase contemporary Dutch installation art, opening on September 12, 2009 until July 26, 2010.
Sixteen artists will be shown in a space of 11,000 sf. with 24 foot high ceilings. The exhibition will extend to the Hudson River waterfront where several major, site specific works will be shown. The selection involves artists with great promise - most have never exhibited in the US.
Much of the work has been created specifically for this exhibition, including work by three artists who came to Peekskill for the HVCCA artist-in-residence program. This program provides artists with the opportunity to create long-term installations, as well as the opportunity to interact through panel discussions & dialogues with the community. To date the program has been limited to artists who have never before exhibited in a US institution.
The artists in the exhibition are:
- Marc Bijl
- Martha Colburn
- Fendry Ekel
- Dylan Graham
- Folkert de Jong
- Job Koelewijn
- Maartje Korstanje
- Alon Levin
- Erik van Lieshout
- Serge Onnen
- Daan Padmos
- Karen Sargsyan
- Lara Schnitger
- Jennifer Tee
- Rob Voerman
- Guido van der Werve
