Mandy El-Sayegh: Figure, Field, Grid Solo exhibition at the Depot of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen

1 November 2025—8 March 2026
Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, Netherlands

Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen presents the first solo exhibition in the Netherlands by Mandy El-Sayegh. The exhibition marks the launch of a new multi-year programme in the Depot, where contemporary artists are invited to develop immersive and site-specific installations. 

For this new commission, El-Sayegh presents an installation that reveals the anatomy of her paintings through newly created works: collages composed of silkscreen prints and hand-painted elements that incorporate both art historical and contemporary references, including reproductions of Old Master drawings from the collection of Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. The result is a space that functions both as an exhibition and a laboratory: fragmentary, intimate, and immersive at once. 

A performance is scheduled to take place during Museumnacht on 7 March 2026, which will bring the exhibition to life in a new way.
