Nature as Artifice:
New Dutch Landscape in Photography and Video Art
Saturday, September 12, 1pm
SVA Theater, 333 23rd Street

Coinciding with the 400th anniversary of the arrival of Henry Hudson to New York Harbor aboard the Dutch vessel Halve Maen, Aperture Gallery is pleased to present the New York debut of Nature as Artifice: New Dutch Landscape in Photography and Video Art, curated by Maartje van den Heuvel, a major survey of work by contemporary Dutch artists who, over the past twenty years, have taken contemporary Holland as their point of departure.

In support of the exhibition, Aperture and SVA will present a panel discussion on the significance and implications of the artworks showcased. Moderated by Tracy Metz, catalogue co-editor, panelists include exhibition curator Maartje van den Heuvel; Alison Nordstrom, George Eastman House; and exhibited artists Jannes Linders, Hans van der Meer, Frank van der Salm, and Edwin Zwakman.

This event will be followed by a reception in the lobby of the SVA Theater.
