We are EX: EXbunker, EXboot & EXtern. We used to be a WWII bunker and a former Zandpad prostitution boat. Now, every month, we fill ourselves with groundbreaking new art. Will you come and take a look?

We are EX

We are EX. Groundbreaking, accessible, and dedicated to emerging artists.

It started in 2014 with EXbunker in a former WWII bunker in Wilhelminapark. In 2019, EXboot was added, serving as an exhibition space in a former prostitution boat from 't Zandpad.
We showcase art to anyone who encounters us in the public, unique spaces where we reside. Our entrance fee is free, and our doors are open—especially to those who don’t often come into contact with art.

The presenting artists are often freshly graduated. For artists at this stage, EX offers a place to exhibit as well as support in the form of coaching and a budget for the realization of their work. The artists are often present at their work as attendants or speakers during the exhibition’s reception.

EX thus brings accessible, groundbreaking art to a diverse audience of enthusiasts and passersby.

Artists

Meet some of the artists that had a recent exposition at one of EX's locations.

Noor van der Wal

In her work, Noor van der Wal explores the relationship between man and nature, reflecting on the destructive power of both. Themes of disappearance and appearance recur in both her work and analog photographic process.In the isolated space of the EXbunker, Noor van der Wal invites you to witness a landscape that will slowly unfold. Where the bunker was once built to keep out external influences, Noor will instead allow these influences to transform her work. On treated steel plates, an image will appear through oxidation.

Do you want to help us?

You can help us by volunteering or through a donating.

Donations

Since we do not charge an entrance fee and do not ask for any rent for the exhibition spaces, our income mainly comes from donations and subsidies.

Donations help us keep the spaces open. Email me, and I will gladly respond. Every donation is tax-deductible because Stichting EX has Cultural ANBI status.

Volunteering

You would like to welcome my visitors and guard my art as a volunteer? The artists who exhibit with me are often present during opening hours. But unfortunately they are not always available, and I’d like to be open the exhibition for an extra day, namely on Friday from noon to 5pm.

Will you help me for a compensation of €20 per afternoon in the EXbunker?

Subsidies

EXutrecht is subsidized by the Municipality of Utrecht
