Wanneer spreekt een gebaar? Kan een opening zichzelf bereiken? Wie kijkt terug?
In deze tentoonstelling onderzoekt Micha Patiniott de mogelijkheid van direct contact met zelf en stem. Via schilderijen en een video volgt hij het moment waarop expressie zich naar binnen keert. Figuratie verschijnt als intimiteit: een hand, een figuur van achteren gezien. De beelden cirkelen rond een holte. In de video zingt
Nina Simone, terwijl een tekst zich in tautologieën vouwt – echo’s van Gertrude Steins continuous present. De werken vormeneenlusvan uitgesteldeopeningen.
Bij de tentoonstelling verschijnt een in eigen beheer uitgegeven kunstenaarsboek (A5, 86 pagina’s, oplage 25).

Thanks to | all the artists the happy shareholders of CAESUUR the municipality of Middelburg
Since 1995, some hundred twenty plus exhibitions of contemporary art have been made in ruimteCAESUUR (spaceCAESUUR). From 1999 on at the Lange Noordstraat 67 in Middelburg.
Visual arts, in relation with the contemporary art discourse, are always the guiding principle for an exhibition, but a historical and social perspective also determine our choices.
ruimteCAESUUR stands for the autonomy of art embedded in larger systems, and puts the artist’s oeuvre at the center of organizing its (solo) exhibitions. Young, novice as well as "arrived" artists are offered a platform in order to present their work in a noncommercial environment.
Real meeting and learning from each other play important roles within our annual planning.
ruimteCAESUUR is a private initiative, without any profit motive, with Willy van Houtum and visual artist Hans Overvliet as its core; they form the board of the CAESUUR foundation.
teamCAESUUR is more than completed by the artists Jorieke Rottier and Giel Louws.
The exhibitions also in 2024 will be organized as much as possible in cooperation with art initiatives from other countries such as Lípa Art Collection and Luxfer Open Space, both from the Czech Republic, Gallery Durden and Ray uit Los Angeles, U.S.A., Slipvillan from Sweden, Bloom Gallery in Valencia in Spain, etc. Exchange with Dutch artists ensures reciprocity in this process.
The unique composition of this team crosses borders of art practices, gender and generations.
