variation nr.1

For years Bart Drost brooded on the possibility of carrying out an art project in or from the former transformer house on Hezelstraat in the Ooijpolder. On April 1, 2021, the Stone and Nature Foundation will make the house available to Drost for his art projects for one year. He will use this period for new personal art projects as well as organizing short art projects for and by third parties in his capacity as Mr.MAAS.
