Exvitations for Beautiful Exhibitions | 31 August 2018

Here are some cards, photographed in August 2018, from my personal archive of invitations to several René Daniëls exhibitions I visited in my teens.
Every one of them little works of art – with a drawing on the front the artist made specifically to announce the exhibition. The invitation as an ‘Exvitation for Beautiful Exhibitions’; ‘Innodiging voor Mooie Tentoonstellingen’.
