Save the date for Moving Through Thin Places, a solo exhibition by Femke Gerestein (1982 Middelburg, NL). In January 2023 Femke Gerestein was selected by guest-curator Martha Jager as the recipient of the Vleeshal Art Prize. Since then Gerestein has developed a new body of work which will be on view at Vleeshal from 27.01.2024 to 21.04.2024.
Once every five years, Vleeshal awards the Vleeshal Art Prize to a promising artist from Middelburg. This artist wins not only a solo exhibition at Vleeshal, but also a close collaboration with a talented, external curator invited by Vleeshal. This time, curator Martha Jager has been invited.
