Over the Rainbow: Group exhibition at Rademakers Gallery

Rademakers Gallery is proud to present Over the Rainbow, a vibrant group exhibition celebrating LGBTIQA+ equality in the art world. Featuring works by Yamuna Forzani, Pedro Matias, Chris Rijk, Julia Kiryanova, Simone Post, Anne von Freyburg, Jessi Strixner, and RIk van Veen, this exhibition shines a spotlight on the creativity, resilience, and diversity of LGBTIQA+ artists.

Over the Rainbow offers a kaleidoscopic exploration of identity, love, and acceptance, showcasing a wide range of artistic practices, including painting, sculpture, textile art, jewellery design, and mixed media. The exhibition highlights the importance of inclusivity and representation, with a particular focus on amplifying the voices of female and queer artists.

Pien Rademakers: "As a woman, I have often felt misrepresented in the art world. That’s why I began connecting with other women and representing them. For me, it’s a natural step to also celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community and advocate for equality in the art world."

A special highlight of the festive exhibition opening on April 19th 2025 will be a live performance by Yamuna Forzani, whose work is known for its joyous celebration of queer culture and the LGBTIQA+ community. Forzani’s performance 'In Bed With Yamuna Forzani' sets the tone for this exuberant and thought-provoking exhibition. This performance has been seen at Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen.

Through Over the Rainbow, Rademakers Gallery continues its commitment to championing diverse voices and fostering dialogue around critical social issues. This exhibition is not only a celebration of artistic excellence but also a powerful statement on the necessity of equality and inclusion in the arts.
