OPENING SOLO-EXHIBITION

 JOEY SCHRAUWEN [NL]

 

Roodkapje is proud to announce the second exhibition in its new space. The performances of upcoming, Rotterdam-based artist Joey Schrauwen were highlights of last year’s outdoor Root Camp and performance-festival Winterwolven. During the exhibition, there will be regular public performances. The first ones are schedules for Friday July 21 and Sunday July 30.

On the night of the opening, Roodkapje also presents the 11th edition of Starter. Burgertrut is an integral part of Roodkapje Rotterdam. We re-establish the restaurant as a place where you can not only eat, drink and support art, but also experience art. On July 14 artist Louis van der Waal does two performances in Burgertrut at 18:30 and 20:00. [More below].

JOEY SCHRAUWEN [SOLO EXHIBITION]

14/07 – 06/08 | ROODKAPJE

How do I become a listening ear?

A voice left blank, in which to resonate You.

Your presence, Your mind, Your feelings and thoughts.

Allowing impressions to enter,

and soothing any cravings to express.

The way we tend to interact is way too loud already.

You might hurt your voice, which you need to sing that inner aria of yours.

I will see if I can get in tune with you,

so we can hear You from just where You Are.

Tuesday: 17:00 – 20:00

Joey Schrauwen, whose roots are in Rotterdam and in breakdance, graduated as a Theatrical Performer from the Maastricht Academy of Performing Arts in 2014. The productions he has made since then include Stopping the world (2016), for which he constructed a large, rotating wheel. His work starts from the moving body and the sense of wonder. In his own words: “In my work, I look for ways to challenge what is ‘real’. Where does our imagination become so true that it enters reality?” In recent years, Joey Schrauwen has worked with the likes of Guilherme Miotto, Davy Pieters, Peter Missotten, 155, Sanne Nouws and Jerzy Bielski.

Starter #11: Louis van der Waal | The Dark side of the box _

 

A presentation from a cardboard box, an ode to the gathering, the fairytale to feel safe, a grubby story to enjoy your vinegar licking meal at Burgertrut. Louis van der Waal will lead you to some shitty fantasies and bring you to a complete flop of a tasty world. A musical text performance of an imaginary world constructed by disasters.
