Marian Bijlenga and Deirdre McLoughlin were to have a duo presentation at the KunstRai Art Amsterdam as early as 2020. Marian Bijlenga had made a beautiful series of fish scales and Deirdre McLoughlin a new series of ceramics. This is already the second year that the Kunstrai Art Amsterdam has been cancelled. We were so looking forward to seeing their work in one presentation. Fortunately, this will now happen in the gallery. And there we have enough space to also show a few of the large palimpsests by Marian Bijlenga and more than 10 pieces by Deirdre McLoughlin. That would never have been possible at an exhibition!
