The exhibition entitled WAAR (English: Where?) explores the relationship between context and authenticity with the Glass Farm as its focus, a hypercontextual building inspired by the local farm typology, yet surprising for its scale and materiality.
A series of Wunderkammern in the museum show the development of the Glass Farm and present studies of the local farm typology through historical drawings and photographs, a photo collage of the average farm as well as excerpts from the local media. Guest curator Winy Maas invited three artists, Jeanne van Heeswijk, Jeroen Kooijmans and Hester Oerlemans who place their work in the historical context of the museum or the village Schijndel, in which they, like Winy Maas, grew up. The exhibition will be open through 5 May 2013 and can be visited Tuesdays - Sundays from 13:00 till 17:00.
