As part of its Art at the Parc cultural program, the historic estate, Parc Broekhuizen in Leersum announced the launch of a solo art exhibition by Egyptian abstract expressionist artist Riham El Adl.  

The exhibition which is titled ‘Journey’ will run from April 7 – May 25, 2024 and it will be the first time an Egyptian artist is featured at Parc Broekhuizen.  

El Adl is an Egyptian abstract expressionist artist residing in Amsterdam, the Netherlands since 2020. She is influenced by her North African upbringing between Egypt and Morocco as well as her extensive travels around the world, including trips in South America and its majestic Amazon rain forests.

El Adl’s art emanates vibrancy, boldness and abundance of colors, drawing inspiration from her unique life experience and personal journey of growth and transformation.  Her artwork seamlessly blends abstract, figurative and narrative elements, inviting diverse interpretations from viewers 

“We are very excited to feature a solo exhibition for Riham El Adl’s artworks and to shed light on her as one of Egypt’s rising talents in the contemporary, abstract expressionist art space,” said Anita Bos, General Manager, Parc Broekhuizen.  As we continuously strive to combine art with our heritage, contemporary design and the grand nature that surrounds us, El Adl artworks will surely be an added value,” she added. 

“Riham El Adl’s upcoming exhibition resembles her personality and journey in life – colorful, bold, transformative and adventurous - taking the viewers on an exciting journey that moves them on a celebratory and spiritual level,” said Irene Shreuder, Culture Ambassador, Parc Broekhuizen.  Our two cultural programs, ‘Sculptures at the Parc’ and ‘Art at the Parc’ host exhibitions that feature some of the world’s most exciting and well reputed artists.  

“It is a huge honor for me to exhibit my artworks at the glorious and majestic premises of the Parc Brokehuizen,” said Riham El Adl.  “The minute you enter the gates of the estate; you can’t help but feel awe at the beauty of the architecture that dates back to the 15th century.  The Main House was previously a castle built in 1801 and the complimenting contemporary interior design that still maintains the heritage of the place, transport you to the time of the noble residents who lived there”.
