Bortusk Leer’s was interviewed by Walter van Teeffelen about his exhibition Art’s not serious, being dead is.
Walter writes for cultural platform If then is now.
During the ‘intelligent lockdown’ Bortusk Leer made special monsters with comforting and humorous messages such as ‘Stay Fucking positive’, ‘Smiling is contagious’ and ‘Smile, you wanker’. This work is now on display in the gallery for the first time.
The O.D. Gallery is happy to announce it’s reopening and cordially invites you to the exhibition Art’s not serious, being dead is.
With this exhibition we cheer up the people in Amsterdam. It is the second solo exhibition in the gallery of artist Bortusk Leer, known for his Happy Monsters holding signs with provocative slogans. During the ‘intelligent lockdown’ he made special monsters with comforting and humorous messages.
The O.D. Gallery cordially invites you to the exhibition Art Vandals
Street art is an art form dominated by men. The O.D. Gallery thinks it’s time to show that there are also female street art artists. On 28 March, we open the duo exhibition Art Vandals, with work by the Canadian artists MissMe and Pony. In a very different visual language, the two artists convey a corresponding message about the position of women in society.
The O.D. Gallery cordially invites you to a fresh start, the exhibition 20. In our first exhibition of the new year we look back and forward. Back to last year, by showing some of our favourite artists who exhibited in the gallery. We’re also introducing some new artists the gallery is looking forward to work with in the coming years.
January 25 – March 22
The O.D. Gallery cordially invites you to the exhibition Lettersoup.
The first type and lettering exhibition by a group of designers/artists/craftsmen and friends who share a studio based in the eastern part of Amsterdam since 2016.
The O.D Gallery is proud to present its second partnership with Portuguese cultural foundation LAC that is known for its collaborations with renowned international street artists, often before they are known by a larger audience. Together we created an exhibition with a wide variety of artworks by the street artists of the future.
