Dans Les Collines

Seventeen days in Néret. Seventeen new *Days*.
Throughout Dans les collines 2, Frank den Os continued the daily rhythm of A Measure of Days: one collage made every day of the exhibition.

While earlier Days found new homes and left empty spaces in the Field, seventeen new ones came into being: small, distinct records of the time lived alongside the exhibition.

Today is the final day of Dans les collines 2. We're grateful for the conversations, encounters and everyone who became part of the work by taking a Day with them.

After today, the Field will divide: one part will travel to Appelscha in the Netherlands, the other to Crevant in France. Two new constellations, and the next stage in the work’s continuing dispersal.

The exhibition ends after today. The practice continues tomorrow, as always, with another Day.

✨ What a wonderful ending to a vibrant weekend of art and culture! ✨

On Sunday, we wrapped up the second weekend of the Dans Les Collines exhibition with Ivo Van Woerden’s presentation of his book 'In de greep van de goeroe'.

While the rain was making itself heard both outside and inside ☔, our little venue was completely full of interested visitors. We were delighted to welcome back familiar faces and to meet so many new people. How wonderful to see so many people finding their way to us!

Ivo gave us a fascinating afternoon and, of course, we ended it the way we should: with an apéro; drinks, delicious bites and plenty of conversation. 🥂

All in all, the perfect ending to a fantastic second weekend! ❤️

For now, our gates will be closed for three days…

But on Thursday, 3 September at 14:00, they’ll open again for the final weekend of Dans Les Collines! ON TO THE GRAND FINALE!🎨✨

🎨✨ A Fantastic Evening About George Sand!

Last night, art and culture lovers were treated to a very special lecture by Madame Cherrier, guide at the Maison de George Sand à Nohant. 🏛️

With passion, enthusiasm and a wonderful eye for detail, she took the audience into the fascinating world of George Sand — a world in which the fine arts, theatre, literature and music all played important roles. 🎭📚🎶

In the atmospheric surroundings of Domaine Lavau, we felt as though we had stepped back in time and gained a wonderful insight into the life, interests and cultural world surrounding this remarkable woman. 🌿✨

We would like to thank Madame Cherrier for her fascinating talk, and of course everyone who joined us for their presence and enthusiasm. 👏

Thanks to all of you, it was once again an evening we will look back on with great pleasure! ✨
