De wereld van Sofie [“Sofie’s World”] is a group exhibition of works by Ilse D’Hollander, Stef Driesen, Tatjana Gerhard and Leon Vranken. The exhibition is curated by Sofie Van de Velde and Jason Poirier dit Caulier. For both Antwerp-based gallery owners, collaboration is of paramount importance.

Both Sofie Van de Velde and Jason Poirier are from a family of gallery owners and learned at an early age how competitive the art world can be. With Gallery Sofie Van de Velde and PLUS-ONE Gallery they take an alternative route and pursue a philosophy of transparency and cooperation. From this position they joined forces with Galerie Ron Mandos to platform the works of four of their artists in the Netherlands.

The exhibition De wereld van Sofie takes place at the same time as the solo exhibition Inner Garden by Filip Vervaet from May 12 to June 10, 2022.
