Dutch Galleries and Artists at Armory Art Week
Gallerie Ron Mandos
Gallerie Ron Mandos presents: “In 1512, enslaved Africans escape their captors to live in the South American jungle. In 1652, Dutchman Jan van Riebeeck lands two ships at the Cape of Good Hope. In 1956, Gordon Parks photographs children in Alabama, waiting to drink from a ‘colored only’ drinking fountain. In 2012, South African security forces kill 34 mine workers who are on strike.”
At The Armory Show 2020, Galerie Ron Mandos will present a group show with artworks by Kendell Geers (ZA, 1968), Remy Jungerman (SR, 1959), Mohau Modisakeng (ZA, 1986) and Esiri Erheriene-Essi (UK, 1982). All were inspired by the aforementioned historic events and their works are intertwined with concepts of g black identity, inequality, the African diaspora and the colonial history of the Netherlands, where the gallery is based.

Carpenters Workshop Gallery will present a show by Atelier van Lieshout: “Over the last three decades van Lieshout has produced work that straddles the fields of art, design, and architecture, creating pieces that question and parody power structures and systems. At the heart of his work is a desire to undermine the myth of the artistic genius. Not afraid to embrace taboo, van Lieshout believes that “art should be a place where there are very few limits.” AVL have gained international recognition for their sculptural installations featuring controversial or sinister nuances. Alongside playful perversion, their work conveys disdain for limitation and a longing for freedom.”
