Marcelle Hanselaer @ Herrick Gallery

The presentation of a short but punchy exhibition of Marcelle Hanselaar’s complete portfolio of etchings: The Crying Game and to celebrate the presentation of a fully illustrated book about this powerful set of prints. It will be the first time that this series is shown in its entirety.
Marcelle Hanselaar is a London-based Dutch painter and printmaker. Her latest set of etchings inspired by Otto Dix’s Der Krieg War prints series are a passionate response to present day violence. “When I see and hear the ongoing reports of wars, of the harsh things we do to each other, I feel I have to do something in order not to be complicit. Being an artist, all I can do is draw and in doing so to draw attention to what matters.”
