DUO showcases ten urban artists who visually explore the long cultural history of Spain and the Netherlands. Five artists from Spain and five from the Netherlands have collaborated in teams of two to explore five common cultural themes. Each artist has created their own canvas, showcasing their unique inspirations, techniques, and vision.
ARTISTS
The participating artists are Belin (ESP), TelmoMiel (NL), Musa 71 (ESP), Leon Keer (NL), SUSO33 (ESP), Mick La Rock (NL), Okuda San Miguel (ESP), Mr. June (NL), Irene Lopez (ESP) and Nina Valkhoff (NL). The artworks were created at STRAAT in the week before the exhibition opening.
DUO was conceived by SUSO33 in collaboration with Santiago Herrero, director of Cultural and Scientific Relations for the Spanish Agency for International Development & Cooperation. The exhibition has been carefully curated by SUSO33 and STRAAT's head curator, David Roos.
DUO is on show in the main hall of our museum, originally from April 19th until - June 2nd, but is extended until June 30th.
