Art Island 2026

Those travelling to IJmuiden at the end of May can see the work of Hans Wilschut in Galerie van den Berge’s solo presentation at the Art Island art fair.

The Duration Of Elsewhere

The Duration of Elsewhere brings photography and video together in an exhibition about a slower rhythm of looking and experiencing. Especially in the urban environment, Hans Wilschut searches for ways to give more attention to what unfolds in public space. His images often take just a little more time, and within the everyday there remains a persistent sense of longing for another place.

Rotterdam in Focus

Rotterdam is shown in diverse ways by photographers throughout history. In post war Rotterdam Cas Oorthuys, Henk Jonker and Aart Klein show an orderly, bright and modern city where empty spaces symbolize progress. Photography from the 1960s and 1970s by Carel Blazer and Onno Meeter, offer a new colourful perspective on the city and reflect the social and economic challenges of the time. In the 1980s and 1990s, Jannes Linders and Gilbert Fastenaekens shattered the myth of orderly Rotterdam. They captured industrial estates, vacant buildings and forgotten places allowing the "urban landscape" to flourish as a photographic genre.

Eleven Cities Prolongued Until 2027

From 2018, thirteen works by Hans Wilschut can be seen in the Fries Museum in Leeuwarden. On behalf of the museum, the landscape photographer took photos of the Frisian eleven cities and Drachten and Heerenveen. Wilschut was inspired by old sketches and drawings from the collection of the Fries Museum.

Resonances From The Void

Resonances From The Void organised by Kunstambassade Rotterdam, presents works by more than 20 artists. The selection reflects on our present time, marked by an acceleration that often seems to slip beyond our control, as if the world is passing through our fingers. Yet a deep human longing remains: for participation, collaboration, the exchange of ideas, and meaningful contact through language and shared presence.

Fotofestival Visions of Green Cities

Stichting De Stad Verbeeldt presents photographic narratives by photographers such as Baukje Venema and Gerlinde Schrijver, alongside work by amateur photographers, students from Deltion and Cibap, and pupils from Meander College. As part of the festival, Hans Wilschut presents his project Visions on Green, in which he explores the outskirts of Zwolle.

Unseen Amsterdam

During Unseen Amsterdam 2024, Hans Wilschut presents a solo show at the booth of Galerie van den Berge. The presentation brings together a selection of new and recent photographic works, making his ongoing exploration of urban space, architecture, and the everyday use of the built environment visible within the compact setting of the fair.

Wild Summer of Art 2-Brutus

Brutus Space presents the 2nd edition of a Wild Summer of Art featuring work by 50 Rotterdam-based contemporary artists and a dynamic public program of events, screenings and performances. This year's edition is guest-curated by Amira Gad in collaboration with Sophie de Vos. The participating artists were selected from a long-list of creatives nominated by a select group of scouts who are well-versed with Rotterdam's art scene.

An ounce of information is worth a pound of data

The winter edition of ART Central Rotterdam XL will bringtogether a series of contemporary art spaces and galleries, local cultural institutions, and artist-run spaces in a curated exhibition. De Goot, a very centrally located new cultural venue, will be home to the exhibition spread over two spaces on the Beurstraverse 154 & Beurstraverse 111.

Non Static Architectural Encounters

Recent and almost recent photo and videoworks by Hans Wilschut

Watersnoodmuseum

Water is essentieel voor ons bestaan, maar zijn ongekende kracht kost ook elk jaar vele levens. Met de stijgende zeespiegel en de toename van extreem weer wordt onze relatie met water een steeds grotere uitdaging. In de tentoonstelling 'Nooit meer een ramp zoals in '53' reageren zes kunstenaars op de relatie tussen mens en water. De kunstwerken onderstrepen de kracht van water of zoeken naar nieuwe denkwijzen voor de toekomst. In deze groepstentoonstelling presenteer ik met genoegen het project 'Atlantis of Galicia', dat bestaat uit een aantal fotowerken en een videowerk.

Skyline, Stadsmuseum, Gent

Skyline. Highrise construction in the Low Lands We recognize people by their silhouette, cities by their skyline. The exhibition ‘SkYline. Highrise in the Low Countries’ challenges our often all too cursory glance at a city. It asks what lies behind the whimsical pattern of stone, steel and glass. And why we are always seeking to build high, higher, highest.

Brutus-Wild Summer Of Art

Wild Summer of Art combines the rut of the new roaring twenties with the brooding excitement of a holiday love and the freshness of a bottom-up artist initiative. This exhibition shows recent work by upcoming talent, mid-career makers and established names from region 010. This exhibition shows where Rotterdam art is and where it is going. It is the artistic thermometer between the buttocks of a feverishly working city.

The Art Of Making Architecture

In the intermediate domain of architecture and visual arts, the boundaries of art, design, architecture and urban planning are constantly being explored. In this exhibition, visual artist Rob Voerman, photographer Hans Wilschut enter into a dialogue with Eindhoven architects Ralph Brodrück & Renato Kindt, Jan Schevers and Wouter Hilhorst & Hyukjin Kang. This presentation takes place in collaboration with the TU/e and has an educational component, more than 55 master students of architecture TU/e participate with work in this exhibition.

Giant Labour

The New Waterway in 150 Years of Photography is an outdoor exhibition in Hoek van Holland presented along the Koningin Emmaboulevard. The exhibition consists of forty life size photographs that together trace the development of the landscape around the New Waterway over a period of 150 years. This includes the excavation of the waterway through the dunes, as well as later interventions such as the construction of the Botlek, Europoort and Maasvlakte.

We Like Art

Now on display at We Like Art, a series of photos by Hans Wilschut about Het Stenen Hoofd, a project about one of the last free zones in Amsterdam, on display until December 12, 2021. It is a desolate place for most of the year, but in the summer months, Het Stenen Hoofd on the Westerdoksdijk in Amsterdam is a popular location for performances and as a city beach.

De Walvis

De Walvis is a story of one building. An office space at Bickerseiland in Amsterdam that got a second life. Commissioned by Maarsen Groep photographer Hans Wilschut follows the process of its reconstruction for almost two years, documenting the site inside and out. While the subject is concrete the artist approaches it in a poetic way, showing the subtle beauty of forms and textures. Go through the book's pages and you will see the building in such a detail as if you were twisting an achitectural model in front of you.
