Eye Filmmuseum presents the first exhibition in the Netherlands about the work of Catalan film and theatre director Albert Serra. Transforming the entire exhibition space into an immersive stage, Serra orchestrates nocturnal and clandestine encounters where theatre, cinema, and art converge. The exhibition offers a “bewildering total experience,” blending theatrical and cinematic elements, inviting visitors into a world reminiscent of the vibrant landscapes of rococo painters Jean-Honoré Fragonard and François Boucher, combined with the contemporary atmosphere of cruising zones. Amidst the grand projected scenes from Liberté, Serra engages participants in a game of observation and participation, exploring the essence of “ultimate freedom”.
The exhibition festively opens on 7 June. The programme kicks off at 20:30 with speeches, followed by an invitation to explore the exhibition. Then, the evening unfolds with the opening party in the Eye Arena, featuring DJ DIORA and YoungWoman.
