Exhibition Arto Theater until the end of 2024
SCHOONHOVEN/KRIMPEN AAN DEN IJSSEL • Until December, paintings by Elma Hoste can be seen at the Arto Theater in Schoonhoven, enriched with poetry by her husband, Polder Poet Jorris Hoste.
The work of Elma Hoste is characterized by wonder for the everyday and tranquility.
Hoste: “I love peace, silence, beauty. How the sunlight plays in a glass vase, colors and structures in vegetables and fruit, flowers swaying in the wind.”
The exhibition shows her work from recent years in context.
‘Poetically, she captures the silence wordlessly’
The paintings are flanked by poetry from Jorris Hoste, Polder Poet of the Krimpenerwaard. Upon his appointment, he was characterized as someone who ‘says a lot with few words’: “That fits well with my partner’s work.”
An excerpt from his poem ‘stilderen’: ‘Poetically, she captures the silence on the canvas wordlessly and no one says anything.’
Opening by councilor Kirsten Jaarsma
The exhibition will be opened on Friday, September 6 at 8:00 PM by Kirsten Jaarsma, councilor for culture of Krimpen aan den IJssel.
Interested parties should register due to limited space via elmahoste.eventbrite.com After the opening, the exhibition can be seen in combination with a theater visit.
