Opening "Shadow Play" at the StadsGalerij Breda - Witte Rook

Shadow Play is the artistic result of the Las Lanzas project in which Iratxe Jaio and Klaas van Gorkum investigated the origin and meaning of the various copies of the painting La Rendición de Breda by Diego Velázquez.

On 6 June at 19:00, the exhibition will open in the StadsGalerij in Breda and will then be on display until 13 July.

This exhibition is part of a Witte Rook programme in which the shared Spanish-Dutch history is considered from a contemporary perspective. In 2024, part of this project was presented under the title A hundred weddings before the Surrender of Breda during the Breda History Month, when, following a call in the newspaper, more than 150 wedding photos were submitted that were taken in front of the painting at the Breda City Hall.
