Through Hardships to the Stars
A Liz Strick exhibition
An exhibition built from willpower, ambition and the will to survive: the true source of inner strength.
Liz Strick: “I live for painting. My paintings are my life.”
Liz Strick could never have known the extent to which these words would become a reality. In 2013 her life changed completely after receiving a diagnosis of breast cancer and then succumbing to heart failure and a stroke. The stroke brought permanent partial paralysis of her left hand as a result in 2014. In 2015 she fractured her hip.
After five heavy years of rehab and physiotherapy eventually THE ART OF LIZ STRICK appeared. It brought her back to life. Art could be used as a form of therapy!
Liz has always worked from her feelings. Her current work is expressionist in its design. (In the past it was more impressionistic, her landscapes in oil).
The willpower to create a form of cooperation between both hands was an incentive for the brain: ‘miraculous’ abstract works could arise in the form of paintings on paper with mixed techniques and a characteristic fine line play. There were also various collages.
Liz’s work can be found on her website: lizstrick.com. In addition to offering sales, those interested can also borrow art work on loan for display in the home.

*Response/feedback to exhibition :
Direct Left Power
“A short while back I visited Liz Strick’s Plan B home exhibition.
I first met Liz at the 2013 ZomerExpo and had not seen her since, though we kept in touch via e-mail. She has had some issues in her life and has had to re-invent herself, both personally and as an artist. One major setback was the loss of the use of one hand to work with, which, certainly for an artist, is a rather crippling disability.
Against all the odds she has started re-using her paralysed hand and has produced some stunning and very moving works with it. I remember having to draw with my ‘wrong’ hand during my years at the academy. It forces you to look and draw more precisely, not relying too much on your routine. For Liz, this must be the same experience and she not only copes very well, the resulting works are awesome indeed! So much so that I could not resist buying one of them.
I whole-heartedly invite any visitors to this site to call on Liz and make an appointment to come and see her work. Be gentle with her, give her all your patience and buy her work. You will not regret it!”

Official opening was on June 8 at 6 pmFor the general public the exposition was open from June 9, 2013 onwards
The Gemeentemuseum in The Hague and Stichting ArtWorlds have organized the ‘Summer Expo’ for the third year in a row. The country’s largest visual arts exhibition was put together through an open invitation for artworks.
Established and non-established artists competed for a space in the ‘Summer Expo 2013’. The theme for submissions was ‘Earth’. 1700 artists contributed around 3000 individual works of art. The exhibition will be held from June 8 to September 15 in the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague. The pre-selections took place in Amsterdam, Eindhoven and Rotterdam.
This year 239 works were offered for sale in the museum. Just like in London’s Royal Academy of the Arts Summer Exhibition, this show will allow the general public to purchase the artworks. The organization wants to encourage the general public to buy art and it also offers artists the chance to sell their work to a larger public audience.
