Anneke Eussen

Press release

DOCUMENT is pleased to announce Anneke Eussen's third solo exhibition with the gallery and the artist's first solo exhibition in Portugal, opening on Friday, May 29. Anneke Eussen (b. 1978, Kerkrade, The Netherlands) lives and works in Vaals, The Netherlands. She utilizes the formal principles of Minimalism evoking geometric seriality, yet quietly deploys hidden narratives and secret histories in her work. Her practice revolves around cultivating and repurposing found materials into meticulously detailed and ghostly wall sculptures. Through layering, arrangement, and assembly interventions, Eussen is never manipulating the original shape of the objects and insists on using their original framework. She had a solo exhibition at Kunstverein Schwerin, Germany (2023) and has participated in group exhibitions at Fondation Villa Datris, L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, France; GIST Triënnale in de Zennevallei, Belgium; HISK, Antwerp, Belgium; Horizonverticaal, Haarlem, The Netherlands; Lage Egal, Berlin, Germany; Park Platform for Visual Arts, Tilburg, The Netherlands among many others. She was awarded the Legacy Purchase Program at Art Basel Miami Beach 2023 and subsequently her work entered the collection of the City of Miami Beach.
