Kunsthuis SYB

From July 1, Kunsthuis SYB welcomes Inge Meijer, who will be a guest until August 15.

In March, twenty-three third- and fourth-year students of Academy Minerva stayed at Kunsthuis SYB for one day and one night. Their works and experiences have been collected into a new online publication.

Residencies and small organisations are microcosms. Very often, they are spaces of experimentation that give the artist in residence a moment out of time and in a new space, while being inextricably linked to new contexts, networks and environments.

In May and June, Lotte van der Woude will be staying at Kunsthuis SYB. During her stay in SYB, Lotte researches the history of Frisian shipping based on her own ship, the Anthonio Maria from 1905, and her family history.

Kunsthuis SYB is happy to announce the appointment of coordinator Gisanne Hendriks!

What can you do and make in 24 hours? Over the next few weeks, Kunsthuis SYB is glad to welcome 23 students from Academy Minerva for a 24-hour residency.

On 13 and 14 March photographer Janne van Gilst will share the results of her research into anthrax groves and cyanotype experiments in a window exhibition at Kunsthuis SYB (Hoofdstraat 70, Beetsterzwaag).
