War and the creation of beauty, both intrinsic to human nature, merge in the bunker exhibitions as an inseparable whole.
Bunker v192 is part of the Atlantik Wall. The defense line was built in 1943 during WWII along the Atlantic and Dutch coast by the Germans.
The bunker is well hidden in the Westbroekpark, on the grounds of Waterkant, a rowing boat rental/ teahouse/ restaurant, better known to many people from The Hague as ‘de bootjes’ -small rowing boats-.
Bunkerexpositie #52 The One Minutes: We Need New Superstars – 24 juli 2024
Bunkerexpositie #51 Until there is nothing left by Jiajia Qi 12 juni – 7 juli 2024
Since 2002, we have been organizing exhibitions in its bunker. The bunker is located in the middle of a beautiful Rose Garden. This makes it a surprising location to showcase art, in an environment where the visitor might not be expecting it.
Within the exhibitions in the bunker, the emphasis is on audiovisual installations inspired by the physical characteristics of the building. The dark spaces are excellent for projecting images and presenting light installations, even during the day. In addition, the conditions of the space are not very suitable for exhibiting, for example, works on paper.
