de boer goess LOCA
25 July - 6 September, 2025
de boer (Antwerpen) is pleased to present an exhibition that unfolds as a spatial conversation between contemporary artistic practice and iconic design history. Housed in the architectural landmark De Zonnewijzer, a 1950s modernist building by celebrated Belgian architect Léon Stynen, the exhibition offers a series of intimate vignettes that pair artworks by de boer gallery’s international roster of contemporary artists with carefully selected pieces of vintage mid-century furniture curated by Loic Driesen of the Antwerp-based design studio Studio Loca.
This site-specific presentation returns the space to its original narrative: the gallery, located on the ground floor of De Zonnewijzer, once served as a modern furniture showroom in the mid-1950s. Re-engaging with that lineage, the exhibition bridges past and present, function and form, by situating cutting-edge contemporary works within a historic framework of design that once defined European modern domesticity.
