In light of BONNE F/W’25 The Carpenter, Galerie de Schans invites Bart Lunenburg for a new solo exhibition titled ‘The Carpenter’
Bart Lunenburg his artistic practice revolves around the memory of buildings, craftsmanship, and our collective history. The Carpenter is part of his ongoing research project Jaarringen. This project explores the rich tradition of historical timber construction within Amsterdam’s ever-changing urban landscape.
For his exhibition at Galerie De Schans, he transforms the space into a workshop, where sculptures, photographs and installations serve as tangible reconstructions of his studio. With a keen eye for detail and craftsmanship, Lunenburg examines how material, form, and history influence one another, and how wood, as a building material, carries both physical and cultural significance.
Lunenburg will also present new works that focus on the accumulation of the wooden foundations of early medieval houses, buried deep beneath the Warmoesstraat and the surrounding area, which are known as the oldest part of Amsterdam.
The Carpenter by Bart Lunenburg is on view from September 4 to October 19.
Join us for the opening drinks on Thursday, September 4, at 18h.
We want to thank AFK for their generous support of Bart’s project.
