RESEARCH

In general, research is part of many of my projects. At present (end of 2025), I am assisting with a research project for the Mondriaan fund on the Dutch participation at the Venice Biennale within the political and social context, focusing on the 1930s. My independent research focusses on Spanish art in Dutch (museum) collections, such as Spanish informalism - for example of Antoni Tàpies (1923-2012) - in the international political context of the time the works were made and acquired. In 2020-2021 I lived in Barcelona, where I researched the life and oeuvre of the Spanish Catalan twentieth century artist and designer Jordi Fornas (1927-2011) for a private client. 

Collection management

For QKunst I work with art collections of companies and government bodies. This involves the collection inventory and registration, organizing the depots, creating exhibitions and presentation concepts at the offices, researching the collection, writing (exhibition) texts and giving tours. Clients are or have been: the Province of Zuid-Holland, the municipality of Amersfoort, Wageningen University, Delft University, KPN, Nationale Nederlanden, Rabobank, Achmea, Alliander, among others.

events

I co-organised Vuelta//Arte, an event related to La Vuelta Holanda, connecting the Spanish and Dutch art worlds. The event took place 17-18-19 June 2022, in Utrecht, Breda and Den Bosch. In this project, I worked together with artist-in-residence platform Witte Rook and Stedelijk Museum Breda. The Spanish art professionals who were invited included Fernando Sánchez Castillo, Susanna Inglada and Agustín Pérez Rubio.

gallery & Fair assistant

I worked for Galerie Sanaa, Gallery O-68 and Tableau Magazine as art fair assistant and gallery host. I also worked as gallery assistant and art advisor at the art loan Kunstuitleen Utrecht.

art in public space

I am currently working on the initial stages of several art in public space projects in Utrecht and Amsterdam, the Netherlands. They connect art, design, heritage and history, mobility, community, landscape and urban planning. In 2023-2024 I was one of the organizers and mediators of the art project BUILD! by Stichting Buitenstaander, in which six emerging artists created new large outdoor pieces for the public space of Lage Weide business park in Utrecht. They reflected on topical issues in the area, such as sustainability, and worked with local materials and entrepreneurs. The works were on show in autumn 2024 at Lage Weide, Utrecht, and in the summer of 2025 at the sculpture biennial ARTZUID in Amsterdam.

review committee

In 2024 I was a member of an independent committee regarding the membership for professional visual artists of contemporary art space Kunstgarage Franx in Zoetermeer, NL. In several meetings, the candidates' work was discussed with fellow art professionals.

art guide & Speaker

I give art tours, host openings, moderate and speak on the occasion of exhibitions and other presentations and projects.
