    During Amsterdam Art Week 2025, Gallery by Fanny Freytag is proud to present the solo exhibition I am a lot of people by Lisette van Hoogenhuyze. The exhibition will take pbe open during Festive Gallery Night on Thursday 22 May between 17:00 and 19:00.

    In I am a lot of people, Lisette van Hoogenhuyze explores the many facets of identity, examining the different roles we take on in life. From mother to lover, from past to present, her work reflects the complexity of the ‘multiple self.’ Van Hoogenhuyze questions how we are expected to be many versions of ourselves at once while also holding on to who we truly are. Her work challenges us to reconsider the layers of identity and their impact on our behavior and relationships.

    Get inspired by Lisette van Hoogenhuyze and her exploration of the many facets of identity!

    The eye glides along, literally from one statue to the next, until it remains still at the back of a bronze sculpture. This is a statue of a woman who wears a long, pleated head covering and, with her back facing the camera, looks out at the immense bluish glass wall of a modern office tower. We circulate throughout the Botanique, the Botanical Gardens of Brussels, created in the nineteenth century. Here Emma van der Put made video recordings of the sculptures that are still standing in the botanical garden today. In her video work Project Panorama, 2025, they are the protagonists who, from their anchored position in history, witness the city’s rapid development. With their tranquil drama the group of statues contrasts with an environment full of anonymous, geometrically designed architectural giants. The park is a time capsule, as it were, but what information does it contain? And what does it say about us, as humanity? Past, present and future seem to be in suspended animation here. The work of Emma van der Put is suffused with suggestiveness. The human figure in all its physicality is portrayed in her Project Panorama as an autonomous presentation, a body both monumental and fragile. On the basis of that ambiguity, the sculptures reach out to the world. But will the body hold up?
