AYSHA E ARAR AND MARIANNE BERENHAUT AT MIDDLEGATE PROJECT

GEEL
Dvir Gallery is delighted to announce Aysha E Arar's and Marianne Berenhaut‘s participation in upcoming group exhibition from September 17, 2023 to December 17, 2023 in Geel
The Middlegate project in Geel is a recurring event. After Middlegate 1 in 2013, organised by Jan Hoet, and Middlegate 2 in 2018, which was a collaboration between the Werft and the M HKA, Autumn 2023 will see the third edition. This time, the project is in the hands of Pierre Muylle (independant curator) and Philippe Van Cauteren (artistic director of S.M.A.K.) in collaboration with the S.M.A.K. museum. The TAGELDIMDE/MIDDLEGATE exhibition is an innovative art experience that focuses on breaking conventional categories and preconceptions. The exhibition not only pays homage to the first edition of Middlegate, but also serves as an “overture” to future possibilities. Visitors are challenged to look and think beyond fixed categories. The curators, Philippe Van Cauteren and Pierre Muylle, explicitly distance themselves from traditional dialectics that are often central to art exhibitions. They strive for a more fluid, porous way of thinking, free from rigid definitions and expectations around what art should be. Works of art are seen as “vital traces of an artistic existence,” needing space and breath to live.
