EXbunker

André makes a number of works in the park around the bunker especially for EXbunker. These works are created in the weeks prior to the opening. The works of art are subject to change during the exhibition period due to weather conditions or due to (un)intentional actions by walkers and will be repaired by André if necessary.

In the bunker itself, photos of the original works of art will be displayed, possibly with photos of older works. There will also be a map in the bunker so that visitors can find the works of art in/around the park.

André’s artworks are minimal, subtle and temporary. After a while, nature or man erases the artist’s traces again and in the end nothing more remains of the work than a photograph or a film. This produces funny and sometimes strange images. Anyone who sees André’s work, or the photographs thereof, starts to look differently at the world around them.

De muren hebben oren

Adriënne Verburg

"De benen nemen" (to take to one's legs/to bolt)—why do we say it that way? Instead of just saying "I'm leaving"? At the same time, people are judged if they don't speak "correct" Dutch. We accept all sorts of crazy proverbs, yet a tiny grammatical error can sometimes be enough to dismiss someone.I am fascinated by how we communicate with one another. How we take it for granted. How words follow rules, how objects communicate with us, and how we, in turn, interpret them. And then there are those proverbs, which often describe things whose meaning is no longer literal at all. Do we truly understand each other, or is that not the case and are we just pretending? In my work, I look for the confusion within proverbs sometimes by depicting them literally, sometimes by changing something small about them.
