28th July – 24th November

It’s not about being sexy, it’s all about knowledge of the right colour combination.
It’s not about being smart, it’s all about the capacity to create unique pieces of art.

Stay away from prejudices and let creativity take over the world.

We invited 10 artists to be part of this show, famed for illegal graffiti on the streets, painting gigantic murals and creating breathtaking pieces of art. And, to top it off, these 10 artists are all women! Yet, this isn’t about feminism, activism, or equality. Or this group of women working in the so-called ‘rough men’s world’. It’s all about creativity.

Street Love I A mix-medium show featuring a group of artists who all have a particular, but often varied link to art made on the streets. Artists who graduated from art academy that started exploring their creative path while hitting the streets with spray cans. Creative photographers with a passion for raw textures and capturing the most iconic street sceneries. Illustrators and designers who love to get away from their sketchbook and computers and create stunning work on the streets. And well-established artists that showcase their art in galleries all over the globe, but still embrace their first love, the streets. It’s their personal translation from their own creative path that made them the artists that they are today. Street Love brings a collection of artworks from seven artists showcasing their current level of skills. Sometimes with a clear link to the streets and sometimes requiring the imagination of the viewer to take over.

Artist line-up: Marije Maria, FELEON, Ravian Derriere, Potato and Onion, Luis Sanchez, Ali C. Ambriz, Bondage Bunny.

In official partnership with Pride Amsterdam, the internationally acclaimed photography exhibition, “Kings & Queens”, by Micha Schneijderberg (Snorella WC) and photographer Léon Hendrickx, takes over the art’otel Gallery. The captivating & poignant yet often humorous exhibition, features drag queens from all over the world, bringing the viewer closer to their identity beyond the exhibitionist extravaganza. Each image features two personalities of the same individual laid bare. The man, woman, or else, is intimately embracing their alter ego, the drag king or queen – or is it vice versa?

The exhibition is free to visit daily 11AM – 11PM 24 July 2023 – 6 August 2023. @artotel #myartotel @amsterdamstreetart

Abstractalizm, la última exposición de la galería del art’otel, es una muestra que conjuga el arte abstracto con el sabor de la cultura urbana, en esta ocasión en torno a un conjunto de nombres del panorama internacional combinados con nuestros artistas neerlandeses preferidos. Abstractalizm presenta a 6 artistas que dan vida a esta temática, y dado que el cartel está compuesto por pocos artistas ofrece la posibilidad de que cada uno presente más trabajos que nunca. Piense en patrones, líneas y colores vivos proponiendo esa necesaria inyección de vida y energía en los oscuros días del invierno. Abierto todos los días de 11:00 a 23:00 en la galería del art’otel Amsterdam.

The name Punctilious, pronounced as «punk-til-ee-us», is derived from the Italian word «puntiglio,» which means fine point. The inspiration behind this exhibition is found in the «illegal» graffiti movement of the eighties. The artists pioneering this movement pushed boundaries and took risks, while working within tight timeframes. They approached their craft with the utmost seriousness, striving for perfection, accuracy, and punctiliousness. This exhibition presents the work of 3 renowned artists who are balancing on the thin line between absolute geniality and total madness. For The London Police, DIGITAL DOES, and Hugo Mulder DHM, every dot is thought-through, every splatter is a visual expression placed on an exact spot and every stroke has an indescribable meaning of artistic value.
