SLUIJTERS AWARD

Solo Exhibition by Erika Peucelle

The Sluijters Prize is a Dutch award recognizing emerging talent in the field of painting. Awarded every two years by the Kunst aan de Dijk Foundation, the recipient of the Sluijters Prize was granted, among other things, a solo exhibition at KunstRAI / Art Amsterdam 2024.

In 2023, Erika Peucelle (Croatia, 2000) was honored as the fortunate winner of the Sluijters Prize. In her paintings, Peucelle portrays the everyday reality of her surroundings, her travels, and youth culture. Utilizing various painting styles—sometimes rapid and sketch-like, other times precise and refined—Peucelle strategically places accents where she intends. Peucelle completed her studies in 2023 at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague.

In addition to Erika Peucelle’s work, KunstRAI featured pieces from a selection of other nominated candidates for the Sluijters Prize.
