We warmly invite you to the opening.
The work of Magali Reus (born 1981, The Hague) is based on the close observation of the vernacular, the almost absurd details of everyday life. Containers such as jam jars, sardine tins, detergent packaging and pizza boxes become the subject of sculptural investigations, in which forms are translated, altered and newly created in series. Reus enlarges the objects, combines them with other visual worlds, and transforms their colours, materials and surfaces using a combination of craft and industrial techniques. The exhibition shows works from the last twelve years as well as a series of new sculptures inspired by Viennese architecture and confectionery art.

The exhibition is realised with the friendly and generous support of Mondriaan Fund.
