Using a mix of discarded and broken tiles, ceramics and glass Marianne den Hartog creates a colourful, lively and joyful mosaicworld. A selection of her work is for sale in Galerie Zone until the end of August. 

Frans Beelen (a member of our collective) is is one of 30 artists from The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and South Africa participating in the summer exhibition at gallery Beelden in Gees (Schaapveensweg 16, 7863  Gees).

Set in seven hectares of beautiful countryside in southeast Drent, art and nature embrace each other here in pleasant harmony and you can easily spend several enjoyable hours wandering through the meadows and gardens and looking around the beautiful gallery where Frans' gorgeous 'wearable ornaments' are on display.

Fascinating assemblages - under the pseudonym "Straatjutter" (literally translated this means "streetcomber") Krista Peters made one everyday for a year (and every one was photographed and placed on the internet www.straatjutter.net). Each one is labelled with the day it was made, where the 'rubbish' was found, and a title. The 'real' things are on display in Galerie Zone until 26 July.
Better hurry as they are selling fast!
