Maaike Schoorel - Unsung Eve

'Unsung Eve' documents Dutch artist Maaike Schoorel's contemplation of her own work in relation to the historical collection of one of the oldest museums of the Netherlands: the Willet-Holthuysen House. Through paintings, collages, drawings, and objects, Schoorel explores and reimagines the old mansion's history, its collection, and the story of its founder, Louisa Holthuysen. This book, designed by Goda Budvytyte, presents artworks created specifically within the context of the museum and includes a roundtable discussion which brings together a diverse, international group of critical thinkers to deliberate on feminism, historical collections, and their impact on art and society today.
