<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Back in the Netherlands.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Jingdezhen, China. It was fantastic, fun, weird and actually far too short, 22 days.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And actually back a bit too early because it snowed in Jingdezhen today, I would have liked to see that.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Chinese friends post movies and photos of the snow on WeChat, so I can follow it a bit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Everyone uses WeChat, similar to our WhatsApp and Facebook.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Everyone is on the phone in the Shanghai metro. Most payments are also done with WeChat, in taxis and shops.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Business cards you hardly get anymore nowadays in China, one immediately asks if you have WeChat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">On the photo with Chinese men, they almost always look serious, so I look pretty .. well, ridiculous then with such a big smile. The ladies usually laugh then, or at least smile.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I have had to work hard to finish everything on time, especially the last days. The two large vases have come out of the kiln beautifully and I hope they can come to the Netherlands soon.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Very special that my good friend and painter from the factory, Xiao Feng, painted on every vase in Chinese characters the words "Made in Jingdezhen". Yes I can recognize some Chinese characters now, so I know that these words are actually there ;-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The last day I walked around on a large factory site with a lot of smaller porcelain workshops, right on the Yangtze River, far outside the center of Jingdezhen.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">A lot of porcelain waste, and even another big vases factory.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I did not really experience the Christmas holidays this year, those days I was finishing the last things.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Oh yeah I got a glass of extra strong rice wine on Christmas Day at the factory and that night I was (ridiculously) early in bed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">With overloaded luggage of Chinese imitation lego, tea, shards and a fairly old, large Chinese abacus back to the Netherlands. The 9 hour long night train trip (to Shanghai) I have spent about completely asleep.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">One night in Shanghai in a hotel that looked like an 18th century palace, with a much too large luxury room, nothing to complain about!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This time, my fifth time in China was the most fun and intense time. It almost felt like I really lived in Jingdezhen:-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Meeting so many lovely and wonderful people, welcoming and helpful, it is of course very nice to have new good friends in China.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The farewell was therefore more difficult this time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Now I have to get rid of the rice wine addiction and fortunately I have been pretty much cured of my stubborn coffee addiction in 22 days.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The breakfast of delicious soup with mushrooms and a kind of meatball, and two fried eggs without salt as breakfast for 8 Yuan (1 euro) I will also miss.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Back in the land of the fries with mayonnaise and cheese sandwiches.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Ofcourse also very nice to be back home!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Mountains of photo and film material. So I have enough editing to do in the new year..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">14 December 2018</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So incredibly cool to be back in the porcelain city of Jingdezhen, China (last time was in 2013 for an exchange project with Delft 'Blue revolution', organized by Adriaan Rees).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It is not the best time to be here in terms of temperature.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Especially if the municipality decides to put the entire inner-city district without electricity for 24 hours. It was a rather fresh night, but I got an extra blanket. And therefore no coffee in the morning. But mushroom soup with eggs in the morning because the restaurant downstairs was open. And other stores worked on an aggregate.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I am really the only foreigner in the city (I am often stared at, haha), I really have not come across one, okay except in the pottery workshop (artist in residence place), but they do not come out of their studio's (at least I think ;-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Everyone is super nice, in shops, restaurants and especially at the factory where I am working.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Also there it is freezing cold, no heating, so I work with three layers of clothing and a coat. But they do have a small stove arranged for me, so it is not too bad actually.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The factory is located half an hour from the center, and today two taxi drivers could not find it, the first one put me off in the city, the second had to call first with three people and a central.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Yesterday a bit too much rice wine at lunch and then back on the scooter back to my hotel, rollercoaster.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Many scooters, many cars, but nobody drives really hard (at least not as those complete idiots in The Hague that almost rattle me and my children off our bikes).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The first day here I was a tourist and archaeologist and I found a lot of ancient porcelain.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">23 December 2018</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Yes, you are nothing in China without a scooter!</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And here are some more clichés, yes, everybody in the factory gurgles the whole day and spits on the ground, and the traffic is a real chaos, but still it runs smoothly and smeared, and especially with 3 people together on a scooter + a baby.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And almost all men smoke, and I get a cigarette offered by visitors about five times a day, which I kindly refuse.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And it is hilarious when I walk into an unfamiliar neighborhood supermarket and say Ni Hoa (just hello), everybody thinks it is funny.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Usually they say ’Hello!' to me.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The boss of the factory is a very friendly 66 years old boss who lives in the factory. Every afternoon at 12 o'clock he cooks a fantastic meal and then I sit down with him on a chair at the table, while the other employees stay or sit here and there in space. The television on the CCTV 30 minutes of news. We communicate via my Google translation app and the same kind of app on the phone of Xiao Feng, the cousin of the boss that I can get along with very well. We have such strange conversations and humor turns out to be quite universal. They especially have to laugh when I try to speak Chinese, that goes pretty well with talking, but I forget about it too quickly, unfortunately I do not have such a linguistic talent. And we talk about Brexit and the army of China (if that is on TV). And we drink Baijiu, a strong drink, at lunch, and then we toast. I tried to refuse once, and no, that was not possible. Today I said that I did not feel so good and if I could get boiled water, of course no problem.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Besides the boss, there are two permanent employees for the heavy work. And four part-time painters. One of the four is a young girl who comes in with a double coat and hood, never says anything and starts painting with gloves on for a few hours and then leaves, her work is taken over by a boy at another time. There is also a muscular guy who throws the vases on the wheel.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Xiao Feng brings me to my hotel in the evening on the back of his scooter. He used to be a hoodlum, but now has a family with young children. Tonight he showed me his scars, nowadays he is just a really friendly guy.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In the morning I eat mushroom soup in the restaurant under my hotel. The owner is a really handsome lady, she works 7 days a week from about 6 in the morning until 9:30 in the evening.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We paint here with Cobalt, which is black before firing and turns blue after firing.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">When the painting is finished, the vase is sprayed with glaze that will give the shine after firing. If a vase needs to be sprayed with glaze the boss tells me to leave the building. I suspect that people here are still using lead glaze that is forbidden in The Netherlands.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Furthermore, painting is as what I am used to, only the enormous surface of the vase did take some time getting used to.</span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">

Two new ceramic sculptures. I was expecting the Majolica in a somewhat blue-gray color. I previously did a test on a different glaze and temperature. (And did not have time for new tests). But on this specific glaze (and higher temperature) it was still just brilliant blue. The kiln Gods have decided (and I will respect their choice)! Thanks Riëlle Beekmans and Leon Perlot!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Now exhibited at ‘Op visite bij Pieter - Beelden in de tuin’, Woonzorgcentrum Stefanna in Delft.</span><br />

<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Digging into the history of Coevorden</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Archaeologists find extremely special sculptures from the seventeenth century</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Coevorden</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Anyone who digs in the soil of an old city like Coevorden can make special finds. During excavations in the Kerkstraat archaeologists found walls and remains of cellars from the 17th century. In an old waste well and between other archaeological remains, archaeologists found two extremely intriguing sculptures.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"It is to be expected that you will make special discoveries if you are going to dig in the center of a historic city like Coevorden," says Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk, excavator, at the project in the center of Coevorden. While digging, a stone's throw from the Reformed Church, the archaeologists first found the floor of an old porch. "That seems to consist of two parts. We found a tiled floor in the highest part of the house, "says Van den Nieuwendijk.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Van den Nieuwendijk and his team think that the front house dates from the sixteenth century. "We could trace that from the remains of a cesspool." He points to a semi-circle of slightly darker earth.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"It is always nice to find something from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, since Coevorden experienced turbulent times at that time with wars against the Spaniards in the sixteenth century and Bommen Berend in the seventeenth century." "It teaches us more about how life was like in such a time. "</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A reference to the war history are the traces of warfare. Finds of musket bullets from the seventeenth century at this excavation are silent witnesses of the war history of Coevorden.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Archaeologists found several cellars in the backyard. Although they are less old the cellar walls are more interesting. "It is still guessing, but we think the front cellar dates back to the late sixteenth century, possibly from the time after the Spanish occupation when damaged houses had to be rebuilt." "The rear part of the basement seems to have been added later, possibly in the early eighteenth century, assuming the brick size and the dating of shards of pottery that we found there. "</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">CERAMIC CARICATURES FROM THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Behind the cellar walls were cesspits and waste pits found by the archaeologists. Possibly this was a fenced back yard of the houses on the Kerkstraat. Remains of a wooden division were also found.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In a cesspool and a waste pit, the archaeologists found two complete ceramic sculptures of exceptional quality. The statues with a green glaze probably date from the late seventeenth century, and are of great historical and artistic value through their expressive appearance and comic character. "Why these two sculptures are found in almost intact condition is really a mystery," says Van den Nieuwendijk. "They look like caricatures, meant to be scoffed." One of the sculptures looks like a standing soldier with a Spanish-looking helmet and a duck's head (maybe a goose's head?). The other sculpture looks like a soldier on a toy horse, where the toy horse once again has the head of a duck or goose.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"These are artistic seventeenth-century ceramic sculptures as we have never seen before, they provide us with a lot of questions, such as where were they made, and why and how did they get here and why." On the statue there is a year of 1592 , but the archaeologists suspect that it is not the date of production but that it refers to the year 1592 as a historical reference to the expel of the Spaniards in that year. "We know that it dates back to the late seventeenth century because of the glaze used and the context of other finds such as ceramic shards." "Such a historical object is of exceptional importance for the history of Coevorden and also for the history of the country".</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The archaeologists hope to find more clues during the course of the excavations that can provide clarity for the mystery of the two sculptures.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The found cellars will be excavated even further, whereby archaeologists in deeper layers can make older finds that can shed more light on the late Middle Ages of Coevorden.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">MAP</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"We first make a kind of map of the spaces we excavate and we document everything," says Van den Nieuwendijk. "Then we can dig deeper again."</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The entire plot has not yet been excavated. So there can still be anything underneath.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 14px;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The archaeologists are curious about what else can be found under the Coevorden soil.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A few weeks remain for Van den Nieuwendijk and his team for the research. Then a new shop building with houses is built.</span></div>

The artists received an explanation about the museum, the collection and the history of Coevorden during a meeting. As a result, they have chosen their own object or story about Coevorden. This object or story served as</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">starting point to create a work of art. In the exhibition the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">chosen subject and the work based on it will be displayed next to each other. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Through the artistic translation of our collection, in the exhibition answers are given to questions like:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">‘What happens to the historical and new objects when they are exhibited side by side?’ and ‘Are you going to look in a different way to the object and history?’</span><br />

Flowers in blue and white. When I was chatting with Jan a few years ago at Struktuur 68, I said to him how I would like to paint one of his sculptures entirely in blue and white. He remembered this idea and in december he called me on the phone and said that he didn’t know exactly what to do with this sculpture and wanted me to think of the idea of painting it in blue and white. Ofcourse I loved the idea. I started with the torso in January and now I am working on the legs. </span><br /><span style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Working with Jan is such a privilege, despite his age (91) he is still creating works of art, isn’t that amazing?!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Of every sold piece of art, the artist will donate half of the revenue (or more) to the fund. The collected money will be split among the 4 organizations above mentioned.<br />MISSION STATEMENT<br />The world in which animals live today is of much growing concern.<br />New facts come to light each day about abuse in the biotech industry and other sectors where animal testing is prevalent—all in the name of human progress. At the same time, there is a growing awareness about the strong link between animal welfare and human well-being. Humans are slowly coming to know animals as they really are, and not just as resources to be exploited.<br />This exhibition in Amsterdam envisions, among other things, a future in which the animal and human worlds are united in common interest and collective welfare. It shows animals as our equals—with their own wills, purposes, and personalities—and not as mere victims on the path to human consumption.<br />Raising awareness of animal abuse and giving aid to abused animals is critical. We want to contribute to organizations that help prevent animal cruelty. Therefore, all proceeds from Art For Animals’ Sake will go to those organizations that help animals in need. We have asked all artists to use only materials that do not include animal byproducts. </span></div>

They have designed two Art cabinets with each containing 5 works of Art. The ‘Kunst kast’ is going to travel around different locations, mostly care institutions, in combination with an art education program.</span></span><br />

<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">While you can buy ordinary suits everywhere these days, we will go that extra mile to ensure the products you buy with us are one of a kind, high quality and outfitted with tiny details that difference the ordinary from the extraordinary.</span></span></div>
<div style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">GMraven makes art wearable. We believe that art should not be just one piece of artwork at one place but a dynamic creation, carried all over the world. This wouldn’t be possible without talented artists who provide us with their art. See below for an overview of the art and artists GMraven works with. Please keep in mind that with our measured suits there is always the possibility to make something of your own! We can create whatever your mind can imagine.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Welcome to Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk’s imaginative ‘Cirque de Pepin’!</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #142c63; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk exhibited his work earlier in Japan, Singapore and China. In China, he learned the craft of ceramics during several residences. In Rotterdam, he is particularly famous for his beautiful contribution to the sculpture ‘Ode to Marten Toonder’, which after a renovation has recently been restored and returned to her old familiar spot on Blaak. Van den Nieuwendijk also exhibited in several museums, including Museum Prinsenhof in Delft.</span></span></div>

<div style="color: #142c63; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In his solo show Ménagerie des Monstres his love for fairy tales, old stories, historical facts and mythology is clearly present. A Menagerie is a collection of wild and exotic animals kept in captivity, the precursor of the modern zoo. The concept of the menagerie originated in France of the seventeenth century. Initially, the word referred to a household, but later it was referred to as an aristocratic or royal animal collection. The Encyclopédie Méthodique of 1782 defines a menagerie as a “establishment of luxury and curiosity.” Later, the concept of the menagerie also concerned traveling animal collections that exhibited wild animals at trade shows in Europe and the American continent.</span></span></div>

<div style="color: #142c63; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk exposeerde zijn werk eerder onder meer in Japan, Singapore en China. In China leerde hij de kneepjes van het keramische vak kennen tijdens meerdere residencies. In Rotterdam is hij vooral bekend door zijn prachtige bijdrage aan het beeld ‘Ode aan Marten Toonder’, die na een renovatie sinds kort weer op haar oude vertrouwde plek op Blaak staat. Tevens exposeerde van den Nieuwendijk in meerdere musea, waaronder Museum Prinsenhof.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #142c63; line-height: normal;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In zijn soloshow Menagerie des Monsters komt zijn liefde voor sprookjes, oude verhalen, historische feiten en mythologie terug. Menagerie is een verzameling wilde en exotische dieren die in gevangenschap worden gehouden, de voorloper van de moderne dierentuin. Het begrip menagerie is ontstaan in het Frankrijk van de zeventiende eeuw. Aanvankelijk verwees het woord naar een huishouden, maar later werd er voornamelijk een aristocratische of koninklijke dierenverzameling mee aangeduid. De Encyclopédie Méthodique uit 1782 definieert een menagerie als een “vestiging van luxe en curiositeit.” Later kreeg het begrip menagerie ook betrekking op reizende dierenverzamelingen die wilde dieren tentoonstelden op beurzen in Europa en het Amerikaanse continent.</span></span></div>

Shards of saggers (a protective fireclay box enclosing ceramic ware while it is being fired), large ceramic kiln stilts (triangles to support plates while being fired), and many shards of biscuit fired (first firing without glaze) Delftware faience and Majolica. And ofcourse I found blue and white Delftware shards next to other ceramics like clay pipes, German stoneware and one Chinese porcelain export ware bottom piece with an unknown makers mark. Hope to find more soon. </span><br />

<span style="font-kerning: none;">I made this small sculpture already some months ago. My kids are Pokémon fans, not the GO but the trading card game. They said I should make a Pikachu sculpture in honour of their favorite character, I said I would, and after this promise, I was bound to do it.... Now the hype is more or less over (or at least that’s what I think, correct me if I'm wrong), it has become a historical artefact.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Why the fair name has been changed from the pretty good name 'Realisme' to the hip English 'For Real' is a mystery to me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">But anyway, I am very pleased to be present at this fair because it is known as the place to be for figurative art, and well... my work is pretty figurative.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It is a 16th century shard of a Faience plate from Portugal with the image of a strange looking rabbit or, when you turn the shard, a strange looking parrot.....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Below two still lives with the 'rabbit and parrot' shard in the middle between Chinese shards (for comparison, with rabbits as well) and a shard of a Dutch early 17th century Majolica plate, all from my own archaeological shard collection. And flanked by a few of my own ceramic works.</span></span><br />

Her private experimental gardens are open for the public. I had the privilege to participate in a ceramic exhibition in October in these gardens in the village Dedemsvaart. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Here are two photo's of my Dragon Emperor in the garden.</span><br />
