About ROOF-A
ROOF-A is a cultural venture in Rotterdam, focused on connecting people and culture. We seek to make borders more flexible and open doors with and between artists, museums, galleries, companies, and individuals. ROOF-A is an international meeting place, a safe space, crossroads and starting point for artists and photographers, collectors, the public, and anyone else who is curious about a world full of imagination. ROOF-A will not only provide space for inspiration and ideas, for museum exhibitions and cultural encounters, but also for entrepreneurship and the building of lively networks between the arts and the business world.
The ROOF-A concept comes from almost 20 years of experience in the public art sector and is focused on content and quality. The cultural enterprise will have two wings: ROOF-A Gallery (exhibitions, young talent, collectors) and ROOF-A Development (artistic projects for individuals/companies, advice to patrons seeking to support cultural projects, strategic development consulting for cultural institutions, helping companies get linked to cultural programmes).
ROOF-A will be a dynamic cultural venture that provides a platform for art and adventurous exhibitions, but also responds to the current demand for connection. How can artists, companies, galleries, patrons, and museums strengthen their social interaction? From November 5th ROOF-A started with a multidisciplinary programme on an international level with three solo exhibitions by Gijs Assmann, Tania Franco Klein, Marjan Teeuwen, three previews by Kalliopi Lemos, Marc Mulders, Diana Scherer en een Rooftop installatie van Atelier Van Lieshout.
