Wako Works of Art presents Dear Friends, Dear Colleagues, an exhibition curated by the Dutch artist Henk Visch. It is our second collaborative project with the foundation "Huis Henk Visch".
Since its establishment in 2016, the foundation "Huis Henk Visch" has overseen the preservation, registration, and exhibition of Visch’s own works and those he has collected over the years. Its activities extend beyond the exhibitions at the art space AUTO VITESSE and encompass collaborations with a diverse range of art spaces, institutions, and artists. In 2024, the foundation presented an exhibition titled If I must die, you must live in collaboration with our gallery, focusing on Palestinian artists and poets in the context of the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
Alongside new sculptures and drawings by Visch, this exhibition presents works from the Huis Henk Visch Foundation collection by 14 artists, including Guillaume Bijl, Jan de Bie, and Louise Bourgeois. This collection has been shaped over many years through Visch's encounters and exchanges with those artists and is deeply intertwined with his own journey. Visitors can also read a booklet featuring texts written by Visch about his encounters with each artist and artwork, as well as on the memories and relationships that have emerged from them. We warmly invite you to take this opportunity to experience the exhibition.
