Whatever Lola Wants is a group exhibition with new works by Fritz Bornstück, Klaas Kloosterboer, Simon Hemmer and Jan van der Ploeg.
Jan van der Ploeg has designed a limited edition poster specifically for the occasion. This autonomous work incorporates a continuous motif that can also be used to cover an entire wall. Work on show by the other artists also includes specially selected pieces.
from Saturday, February 18th, 2012 to Saturday, March 24th, 2012
Jan van der Ploeg (1959 Amsterdam) began painting murals in his signature geometric designs in his hometown of Amsterdam. Since then, he has painted his designs on the walls of galleries, museums, artist-led spaces, corporate environments and the homes of private collectors throughout the world. His visual language incorporates combinations of simple shapes and bright colours in varying dimensions. Van der Ploeg strives for functionality and simplicity blended with shapes and hues drawn from popular culture. Jan van der Ploeg followed his art training at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam and at Croydon College of Art in London. Recent solo exhibitions include shows at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, the House of Art in Budweis in Czech, Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam and the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague. In 2010 Van der Ploeg had a two-person show with Thom Puckey at Centro del l'Arte Contemporanea, Prato, Italy and his work was featured in Riposte, an exhibition held last year at Stedelijk Museum Den Bosch.
