STRAAT museum launches her new exhibition, The Essence, on April 10th. It’s all about diving into what drives graffiti - the names, tags, lines and repetition - as its own visual language. The show follows graffiti’s journey from the underground in New York City to a global movement that inspires modern art. To celebrate the opening, the legendary graffiti artist Bill Blast (Wise/William Cordero) will create new work, give an interview and sign blackbooks on April 11th.

A. Beginning brings together seven artists who have each started over in their own way after studies, illness, or personal changes. The exhibition explores the balance between vulnerability and resilience and shows how the desire to start over runs deep within us. Even in uncertain circumstances, the urge to grow and move forward remains present.

The Ultieme Selfie concludes the Selfie van de SZiel series with works by fourteen artists, each presenting their own ultimate self-portrait. Through paintings, photography, film, installations and performances, they explore themes of identity, vulnerability and connection.The exhibition invites visitors to reflect on who we are and what connects us to one anothe
