The Holland Paper Biennial

The Holland Paper Biennial will be held for the sixth time from 10 June - 10 September 2006 and will be exhibited at two museums: Museum Rijswijk and the CODA Museum, Apeldoorn.

A wide selection of works by 22 artists will be on show throughout the premises of Museum Rijswijk, while large-scale work, installations and artist’s books by 20 artists will be exhibited at the CODA Museum.

The artists selected for this Holland Paper Biennial all work closely with the material paper. For some the starting point is pure fibre, while others make their own pulp from a mixture of fibres. A number of artists use handmade or industrially produced paper, which is worked by means of presses, perforations, folding or cutting.
