Exhibition Floortje van Loon ’IT IS NOT WHAT IT LIKE’

The House of Cotton and Now is an icon for Almelo. Originated from the unforgettable musical, now continued as a building that connects. With everything that ordinary Almeloans love: Heracles, famous (former) residents, pictures and movies, free portraits, shared stories, etc, etc. But it is more: a breeding ground of new activities, a cultural hotchpotch, where things and people are connected. Also in the interest of the downtown.

Looking beyond the first impression
In the exhibition “It is not what it seems,” Van Loon deliberately plays with recognition and alienation. An image that seems clear at first glance changes the longer you look. The exhibition invites visitors to doubt, interpret and be surprised.

Active within the regional art world
Van Loon has exhibited in various places in Almelo and beyond in recent years. She participated in the International Art Brut Biennale in Hengelo, exhibited at Kunstpunt Almelo, participated in Open Ateliers Almelo and in the Open Air Gallery in Enschede. She also organized her own exhibitions with other artists, including pop-up exhibitions. Accessible and inclusive art is an important starting point for her: art should be experienced by everyone.
