"Estate ‘Het
Buitenland’, on which the gallery is located, offers a serene sight. Twilight
has set in, a crackling fire is lit and some candles enlighten the outdoor
kitchen for Joop Cornelis and Tyrell Kuipers. They prepare real outdoor dishes
in a smoker, such as stew, satay, smoked salmon, roasted ham and grilled vegetables.
The guests
walk in and out of the gallery with their plate to get some food. It's raining
lightly, but that doesn't seem to bother anyone. In the gallery, about 25
people are dining at large tables, surrounded by art. If you enjoy a stew, you
can enjoy a painting of donuts, a print of a hamburger and a large image of an
ice cream as well at the same time. In between dishes, conversations about art arise,
guests walk around the gallery and, for a change, guests walk outside to sniff
in the fresh evening air with a hint of charcoal." (lees meer / dutch only)
