Jan Wagner recently turned 85. The exhibition ‘Een Terugblik’ (A retrospective) is a selection of drawings and paintings that he made in the period 1965-2025. Wagner underwent a gradual artistic development from figurative representation to abstraction.
In addition to being a visual artist Wagner is also a writer. In 2024 he wrote his biographical retrospective ‘Kroniek van een Rotterdamse tekenaar’ (Chronicle of a Rotterdam draughtsman). This chronicle together with the exhibition sheds light on a complete artist’s life.
Opening on Sunday 9 February at 3.30 PM by Arjen Baas former chairman of KunstWerkt. The afternoon will be enlivened by the singing trio ‘Les Étoiles du Nord’. All visitors will receive an edition of the story ‘Is Africa father’ as a present during the opening from Wagner’s sold-out collection ‘Reisverhalen’ (Travel Stories).
The artist will be present on Sunday 16 and 23 February to sign his chronicle. The special KunstWerkt price during the exhibition is €20.
Finissage Sunday 2 March at 3:30 PM.
