Pictures: Motel Seven at the Willem Kerseboom Gallery, Amsterdam. February 6, 2010.

An unconventional show at the Willem Kerseboom's: graffiti- related work instead of modern Chinese Art.

Mr. Kerseboom deserves respect for trying to bring this type of western contemporary art to his audience and clientele. It turned out to be a well visited show in an absolutely gorgious gallery along the pitoresque canal called Leidsegracht.
Most visitors looked like they come from around that way: as we say "Grachtengordel" chique, not the average visitors for a graffiti-related show.  It seemed to me the work exposed did  what art is supposed to do: some of the invitees were obviously excited and a little shocked by seeing MotelSeven's work.

I hope more established galleries will dare to do the same as Willem Kerseboom and open their doors and the doors to the art world for this type of art.
