Sunday: Talk&Walk:
Isolde Venrooy and Hans Zijlstra
On Sunday 11 June from 3 to 3.30pm, visual artist Isolde Venrooy and earth scientist Hans Zijlstra will present their collaboration, which took place during Isolde’s Greylight Projects residency period (March-May 2023). Isolde and Hans combine art and science in a design for a public water tap: a fountain of glass, minerals and seeping water, in which underground processes are brought to the surface. Isolde will share her fascination with sponge animals and man’s dealings with water; and Hans will talk about his fascination with flints and the filtration of water through minerals.
This event takes place during the open studios weekend of artists Stefania Crișan and Isolde Venrooy, the 10&11th of June.

WHAT REMAINS
A question that plays a role in contemporary art practice is what to do with the material of a (temporary) installation when the exhibition is over. Or the material left over from experiments in the artist's studio. This is one of the questions Christian Landspersky asks with the project What Remains Gallery.
For Greylight Projects, it is a recurring topic as a workshop and exhibition space for contemporary art. What remains after an artist has been a guest in our studios in Heerlen. Is this a material intervention or are it lasting ideas that resonate in the minds of visitors and participants?
To draw attention to the original material, which the contemporary art system, once used - as replaceable, temporary and reproducible - discards. In a field of both mental and physical tension, What Remains Gallery approaches the forgotten and excluded and, at the same time, the present and existing. What Remains Gallery is not so much the idea of an art gallery as a mental space for transformations to be explored.
What Remains Gallery:
What remains / What Remains? Since its inception in 2009, the What Remains Gallery has revolved around this question. Instead of producing something new, the focus of the artistic practice is on exploring what already exists. What remains of an artist's work, an artistic work and its idea after it has been exhibited? What Remains Gallery starts from this end, to discover a new beginning in artistic potential.
Featuring works curated with materials from previous works by Laure Prouvost, Lawrence Weiner and Tony Cragg.

WHAT THE FLAG?! 2023
The flag has a long tradition of different uses and meanings. Flags are commonly used to transmit signals, to identify countries, regions or cities, or to visually demarcate a territory. Flags are also frequently used to represent political ideas and beliefs. The artists are asked to respond from their own work and vision of the medium “flag” within the context of the location in which they are shown. The different flags will be shown to the public at various locations in and around the inner city of Heerlen. There is also an exchange of artists flags between art organizations and museums in the Euregion, a collaboration within the Very Contemporary network.
Participating artists:
Anna Neukamp, Athanasia Vidali, Ben Weir, Christian Landspersky, Éloïse Alliguié, Famke Storms, Isolde Venrooy, Jean Boumans, Jody Korbach, Kaya Erdinç, Kenneth Moreno Kiernand, Mikail Korcek, Rose Nordin, Stefania Crisan, Tom Bogaert, Vera Drebusch, Luuk Smits, Paul Koppers, among others.
