Sander Breure & Witte van Hulzen 1985

Lives in Amsterdam (NL). Works in Amsterdam (NL).

Represented by:

A constant throughout the multidisciplinary work of Sander Breure & Witte van Hulzen is
their fascination with human behavior, the coded structures within it, the influence of time and place on human relationships, physiognomy and body language. That societal interest is explicitly manifest in ‘Parts, Bits and Pieces’. Here the word ‘part’ can also be taken to mean ‘role’: the role played by an actor, for instance, but also the roles (of pupil, doctor, mother, customer or loved one) played by people in day-to-day life.

Rijksakademie publishes first edition ever with In a Box

In honour of its 150th anniversary, the Rijksakademie is issuing editions for the first time in the institution’s history. The edition entitled In a box consists of 13 works of art by better-known Rijksakademie alumni in a handmade wooden box that together form an exhibition - even the cards with descriptions are included. An edition by Claudia Martínez Garay is also for sale during the Open Studios (17-27 June).

In 2016 and 2017 they participated in the residency program of the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten, Amsterdam (NL). Their work has been awarded multiple prizes, including the René Coelho prize and the TENT Academy Award in 2009, the main award at the Seoul New Media Festival in 2016 and the Charlotte Köhlerprize in 2018.
