Installation view Best of Graduates 2024
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Galerie Ron Mandos proudly presents the annual Best of Graduates exhibition, a celebration of emerging artistic talent from art academies across the Netherlands. This exhibition provides a vital platform for recently graduated artists, introducing them to galleries, collectors, and curators.
Each year, the Galerie Ron Mandos team, alongside Best of Graduates curator Radek Vana, visits graduate shows across the country to identify standout artists.
As is tradition, the winner of the previous year’s RM Public Choice Award has designed this year’s Best of Graduates poster. Last year, Fanja Bouts was chosen by the public as their favorite artist from the Best of Graduates 2023. A visual artist specializing in installation and illustration, Fanja’s work explores the contrast between the playful and the absurdly serious, creating chaotic scenes with non-linear narratives. Congratulations, Fanja!
