Founded in Amsterdam, The Netherlands in 2007, Rademakers Gallery is a contemporary art gallery and creative agency that presents artworks by renowned as well as emerging artists at the interface of art, design, fashion and jewellery. Rademakers Gallery participates in national and international fairs such as Art Rotterdam, PAD Paris, Design Basel, Enter Art Fair Copenhagen, PAN Amsterdam and Design Miami.
At Rademakers Gallery, there are two main pillars for the way we operate. First, the aim is to strengthen the position of female artists in the art world. This is why we represent mainly female artists. This is exactly the other way around from regular practice on the art market, which is currently dominated by male artists. Additionally, we are passionate about sustainability, which is deeply rooted in many of our artist’s practices. For example, our artist Joana Schneider works with discarded ropes and viscose thread from recycled plastic, Simone Post creates work from misprinted vlisco fabrics and Sebiha Demir uses empty bulletshells used in police training to create sculptural animals.
The founder of Rademakers Gallery, Pien Rademakers, is an art historian who has a passion for the multidisciplinarity in the arts and strongly values an inspiring context where all creative disciplines merge together. She loves the overlap between art and design, and thinks there does not have to be a distinction between the two. It is impossible to view art from one angle only as all disciplines influence and inspire each other. Every show, artist and work is personally chosen and curated by Pien Rademakers, with an open minded, colorful and feminine vision. She is committed to present balanced and accessible exhibitions and programs that strengthen the position of all the artists she strongly believes in. In doing so, the Gallery functions as a platform for discovering talent alongside presenting eminent artists.
As we believe in the gallery as a platform for creativity to come together, we do not only sell art, but also provide personal advice and act as a creative agency. Whether you're looking to buy a single work of art, or need support with establishing a coherent and outstanding art collection. From a thorough knowledge and years of experience, we work discreetly and reliably for private clients, professionals and businesses like interior designers and embassies. Then, if you are looking for something specific and unique, we can assist in commisioning works by our wonderful artists and create new art together.
