We actually wanted to create our very own world in Eindhoven, so that it becomes more worthwhile to pop in for a visit, and with different reasons.<\/p>\n<p>The gallery is now six years old and a whole series of exhibitions have been realised. We work together with artists from home and abroad who, without overly complicated procedures, are selected based on chance meetings. But it sometimes happens the other way round, that an artist runs into our work, which results in a meeting that then sometimes results in an exhibition.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11611\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11611\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11611\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/JCauty-RiotJar-ADP-Wind-Farm-Too-Little-Too-Late.jpg\" alt=\"James Cauty, ADP Wind Farm: Too Little, Too Late, Modelbouwfiguurtjes, glazen pot, ledverlichting\" width=\"700\" height=\"980\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11611\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">James Cauty, ADP Wind Farm: Too Little, Too Late 2016, Plastic miniature figures, industrial jam jar, led lighting<\/p><\/div>\n<p>At the PAN we are presenting works by three artists: Tokihiro Sato, James Cauty and Marc Mulders \u2013 respectively living and working in Tokyo, London and Oirschot. We have a special connection with each of them. The sculptural photos of Tokohiro Sato can only be created with the patience and care that are so characteristic of his homeland. With cheerfully morbid humour, James Cauty captures the tension and madness of London in jam pots and Marc Mulders throws open the enormous barn doors of his studio to paint the flowers in the meadow and the natural surroundings. All three artists have enormous dedication and above all endless patience.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9633\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9633\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9633\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shirakami3-100mm.jpg\" alt=\"Tokihiro Sato, Shirakami #3, 2008, Inkt-jet druk\" width=\"700\" height=\"880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shirakami3-100mm.jpg 700w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shirakami3-100mm-239x300.jpg 239w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-9633\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tokihiro Sato, Shirakami #3, 2008, Inkt-jet print<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Marc struggled to capture the colours and the light of the environment in which he works, in darkness. Almost nothing was good enough for Marc\u2019s critical eye and only a few weeks ago, when we had almost given up, he suddenly succeeded.<\/p>\n<p>So we have a first: dark, colourful work by Marc Mulders. He mentioned, in passing, that dark paintings do not sell. But they are actually just as light and colourful as his lighter works. After all, these colours are also present at night, but you don\u2019t see them, or you see them differently. This is true for all the pieces we exhibit: instantly enchanting. Instantly enchanted \u2013 as we were when we first saw it. If you take a closer look at Marc\u2019s darker work, there is much more to discover.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11542\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11542\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11542\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/BLACK-FEATHERS-20.10.16.jpg\" alt=\"Marc Mulders, BLACK FEATHERS 20.10.16, olieverf op doek\" width=\"700\" height=\"1054\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/BLACK-FEATHERS-20.10.16.jpg 700w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/BLACK-FEATHERS-20.10.16-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/BLACK-FEATHERS-20.10.16-680x1024.jpg 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11542\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Marc Mulders, BLACK FEATHERS 20.10.16,\u00a0oil on canvas<\/p><\/div>\n<p>It goes without saying that we will also bring a large number of our own objects, some of which have been created especially for the PAN.
