21 November, 2025 17:00 - 22:00

Every third Friday of the month, you're welcome at the Kunsthal for an exciting and inspiring programme infused with a generous dose of art. All exhibitions are open until 22:00 hrs and each edition is curated by a different Rotterdam-based partner. On Friday 21 November, Pretty Girls Like Trap Music will be pulling the strings. The exhibition They have always been here from artist Kudzanai-Violet Hwami serves as the source of inspiration for this vibrant evening.

Kudzanai-Violet Hwami

From 8 November, Kunsthal Rotterdam presents They have always been here, the first solo exhibition in the Netherlands by Zimbabwean artist Kudzanai-Violet Hwami (b. 1993). Specially for this occasion, Hwami is creating new work, including layered paintings, digitally reworked photographs, and her very first bronze sculptures. With rich, saturated colours, personal photographs and archival material, she draws attention to people who have often been rendered invisible in history – in particular queer people of colour within the African diaspora. Read more here.
