We welcome you to a presentation of the newly released book “Marzee,” published by Arnoldsche. The name Marzee refers to intertwined identities. There is Marie-José van den Hout (known as Marzee), the dealer whose drive and passion makes everything possible. There is Galerie Marzee, the institution with a rich backstory, a fabulous building, and enviable programs. And there is the Marzee Collection, more than 2,500 objects that track the history of Marzee the individual and Marzee the gallery. This book, with a foreword by Petra Hölscher, chapters by Susan Cummins, Flos Wildschut, and Lizzie Atkins, and photographs by Michiel Heffels, tells the story of the dealer, the gallery, and the collection. In 1978 Marie-José opened the first Galerie Marzee in an old butcher’s shop in Nijmegen, the Netherlands; today the gallery occupies an impressively renovated grain warehouse on the river Waal. Imbued with the powerful minimalism of the building, the book presents over 300 pieces from the Marzee Collection that have been chosen and arranged by Marie-José van den Hout herself.
