DSG is not only landscapes

About this activity.

The DSG is a visual artists' association of 41 members and a DSG Jong department of newly graduated artists, all of whom are connected to Drenthe in some way. Over the years, graphic artists, ceramists, spatial designers and photographers have also joined.
Thanks to the variety of themes, techniques and directions, the exhibitions, which are also organized across provincial and even national borders, provide a good overview of what is happening in Drenthe in the field of visual arts. A return to the tradition of painting from the Golden Age is just as present as the new realism, influences from surrealism, conceptual art and impressionism.
Man is often used as a theme, in portraits, in poetic and intimate situations, as well as in magical and alienating spatial environments, in idyllic places and in crowded halls. In the spatial works, humans and animals show their own nature in fascinating ways, and fragile vegetable forms seem to conquer more and more space.
Many artists convey cunning, humorous, hidden and provocative messages in their work, which must be unraveled by the viewer.
Wordplay in the titles of the works and giving new meaning to found things and utensils recall the magic realists, surrealists and conceptual artists.
In this exhibition, 8 artists and their works provide a cross-section of what is in
