Exhibition opening: Arcadian Dreams, Creatures from a World Reborn

We are thrilled to invite you to the opening of Arcadian Dreams: Creatures from a World Reborn, an exhibition showcasing the surreal works of artist Margriet van Breevoort. This event celebrates the first solo exhibition and the TU Delft Art Collection’s latest acquisition, Pangoled in its Natural Habitat, a striking piece that explores themes of nature, evolution, and post-humanism.

For this exhibition, Opperclaes has transformed the ECHO building into a world where van Breevoort’s creatures make us rethink the relationship between humans, technology, and our future on Earth.
