Eat Love Die
04/06/2020 - 15/11/2020
Artist Roos van Geffen (1975) concerns herself with the greater topics of life such as desire, transience and farewells. Van Geffen is now approximately in the middle of her life span. Many a year has passed and death is no longer an abstract thought, but a slowly advancing reality. EAT LOVE DIE is her first retrospective exhibition that centres on death and all emotions that come into play.
The Last Pet
Museum Tot Zover ("So Far”), a museum on life & death, presents contemporary work by artists responding to a growing trend in the Netherlands: mourning animals. De Laatste Aai, which can be translated as either 'The Last Pet' or 'The Final Caress' pays homage to animals and considers not only the grieving process and compassion for our pets, the rituals and practices surrounding animal death, but also our indifference to other animals.
Photo album "Ik Ruik Hem Nog Steeds" (I smell him still) gives a peaceful look at animal love.
Artist Satijn Panyigay''s beautiful photo album is about the emptiness in the house after the loss of a pet. The book consists of text fragments and photos from her series "I still smell him" and appears in a limited run of 100 signed editions.

Visiting Hours. Photography
The space of a last farewell is most often the aula of a funeral home or crematorium. The artist Audrius Kriauciunas shows with the photo exhibit 'Visiting Hours' his fascination with the Dutch design of these spaces.
