Hosted by The Grey Space together with Fotomuseum, for HOOGTIJ#80

For this edition of Hoogtij, The Grey Space and Fotomuseum have joined forces.  We will have a conversation with the Hague-based artist Marleen Sleeuwits, whose site-specific installations Enter the Cube is currently on display at Fotomuseum Den Haag.

About Enter the Cube
How do we perceive a space? What do we actually see? And what information do our brains fill in? In the new exhibition Enter the Cube, Sleeuwits establishes a dialogue with the work of the famous American Minimalist artist Sol LeWitt (1928-2007). The work of both artists investigates the boundaries of perspective and how we experience space. Inspired by LeWitt’s works in which he endlessly explored the shape of a cube, Sleeuwits has built a colourful site-specific three-dimensional installation. Visitors are invited to enter the cube and wander through the seemingly infinite space.
