PAWS

Aug. 2023

Art is our beating heart, and collaboration is our pulse. With each season, Wandler evolves, unveiling new facets of its identity. Now, a fresh chapter unfolds - an evolution that is rooted in optimism, artistry, and color.

Together with David Surman we look to the legacy of the CoBrA movement as a way to converge our values with CoBrA’s unrestrained use of strong colors, its prominence within the Amsterdam art scene, and emphasis on spontaneity, experimentation, and collaboration. PAWS emerged as a testimony to friendship, a blend of both our creative voices, guided by the belief in the universal creative potential of humans. The collaboration reflects Wandler’s belief that art needs to be made more accessible and artists should be provided with a platform. Showing that a gallery can be a place where anyone can feel welcomed.
