Vendelmans: Alice Frey

13 - 29 April

For its inaugural exhibition, Vendelmans is proud to present a selection of works by Belgian artist Alice Frey (1895-1981). The exhibition is the first solo-presentation of the artist’s work outside of continental Europe, and also marks the first exhibition dedicated solely to Frey in the last fifty years.

The exhibited works, primarily executed in the 1930s, are illustrative of a particularly intruiging moment in the artist’s career, during which we encounter FREY searching for, and finding a visual language which was entirely her own. The self-portrait of 1936, showing the artist aside her palette and which FREY exhibited at the Venice Biennale of that same year, is exemplary of this stride towards her artistic identity.
