    We will celebrate the amazing first year of the gallery, before our space closes temporarily for renovations. We think back on the year we’ve added to our résumé and all the new people we’ve met.

    It is not only to a successful year for us, but also the amazing artists we had the pleasure to host. We want to give them a final chance to present their work in our gallery before closing.

    The ‘+1’ exposition has a unique and new approach. Aside from inviting known names from the gallery, such as Jean-marc Spaans, Lenny Stöpp, Isabelle Backer, Gillian Bolton and many more, these artists will all bring their own +1. A group exhibition with known and new names, as fits the spirit of N_W Art Gallery perfectly; embracing our history, yet at the same time ushering in new life in the gallery world.

    Gillian Bolton, Pim Schumacher, Lennart Heiner, Terry Cole, Rosaline van der Horst, Justine Ellul, Tineke Porck, Matthijs van Zessen, Lenny Stöpp, Zowie Smeets, Hara Anthanasopoulou, Pearl Sijmons, Isabelle Backer, Esther Hoogendijk, Daniel Heikens, Heather Visser, Jean-Marc Spaans, Nino Calos, Studio Earthling, and Het Verbod.

    Gillian Bolton
    September 6 – November 1, 2025

    Painter Gillian Bolton, based in The Hague and a 2024 graduate of the Royal Academy of Art, explores rhythm, balance, and the dialogue between structure and emotion. Built from geometric forms yet never distant, the works reveal shifting surfaces and subtle color play that create a quiet intensity. Layers applied with precision invite a slower, more attentive way of looking. Bolton’s practice seeks moments of stillness where clarity and vulnerability converge.

    Hara Athanasopoulou
    September 6 – November 1, 2025

    Royal Academy of Art (KABK) graduate and Jan Roede Prize 2024 winner Hara Athanasopoulou combines the patience and precision of craftsmanship with a curiosity that uncovers underlying stories. Her research into textile production engages with both the material complexity of fabrics and the historical role of women in their design and making. Inspired by her grandmothers in Greece, who first introduced her to needlework, Athanasopoulou explores the intertwined histories of textile practice and women’s cultural significance.

    Lennart Heiner
    September 6 – November 1, 2025

    Lennart Heiner challenges conventional definitions of art and its production. Rather than building towards a single major work, he develops ideas through small, quickly materialized pieces that together form a subjective encyclopedia of the world. When installed collectively, these works create juxtapositions and associations in the spaces between, without prescribing a fixed narrative. Gentle humor and childlike simplicity invite viewers to set aside intellectualization and engage with the work in an immediate, experiential way—much like listening to music.
