Vacation Stories

Summer is over and autumn is approaching. What lingers from summer are the vacation stories, the trips that were taken. In BK Information No. 5, 2018 we made an appeal to share with us your art experiences from this summer.

Visual artist Frist Dijcks visited the abandoned d'Aspremont-Lynden castle in Belgium, where artists both named and unnamed have been brought together for the exhibition Scene Unseen and wrote about it in Jegens & Tevens.

Gerrie Starreveld, visual artist also wrote about art in Belgium: "This summer we visited the Beaufort Art Triennial along the Belgian coast. The weather was fantastic, we moved from one beach club to another and viewed the artworks on the spot.
What was striking was the way people handled the artworks. In Ostend, the orange Rock Strangers by Arne Quinze is part of a course for all kinds of bicycle carts that children and adults use to make the boulevard unsafe. It looks playful.
At one of the images of Kader Attia's Holy Land were parked a shopping cart and 2 chairs. The owners sat against it in the sand at the back and used the sculpture as a back support.
And then there was the one lady at The Navigator Monument by Simon Dybbroe Møller. We enjoyed it."
