Artistic direction
Roland Wisselink
Artistic Director
I am Roland Wisselink, visual artist, curator, and one of the initiators of KEl-30, based in the Biotoop. My interests lie in spatial work, exhibition making, architecture, and sustainability, and especially the intersections between these disciplines. In 2007, I graduated from the Academie Minerva (autonomous visual arts). With a scholarship from the VSB Fund, I subsequently followed a Meisterschülerstudium under Professor Eberhard Bosslet at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Dresden. Here I learned a great deal about art and how it relates to space.
