'Memory Knight' at Art Rotterdam 2008

Rotterdam, Feb 2008

Memory Knight at Art Rotterdam

From the 7th till the 10th of February 2008 Jeanne van Heeswijk presented her latest installation Memory Knight at the Art Rotterdam. The work is a reaction of Het Dwaallicht (Will o the whisp) on the recent demolishing of the New Crooswijk area in the north of Rotterdam.

In 2004 Van Heeswijk started with Het Dwaallicht project a search for the identity of this neighbourhood. While tearing down the old houses and moving out most of the current inhabitants, the area is now a days promoted by the property developers as a nostalgic place with history. After a solo at RAM Gallery at the Art Rotterdam, the installation Memory Knight will be shown at the Center for Visual Arts in 's-Hertogenbosch as part of the exhibition ANNO HIER.
