Dear Everyone,
I am writing this letter to inform you that the Spanish Tapas Buffet Dinner event that we have organized is being cancelled. Two of the musicians met an untoward accident last weekend and they are still recuperating until this date.
We will instead be holding a special sit down dinner for all the people who made reservations. The said dinner will be on the same date and venue of the initial scheduled event.
We hope that you would still be able to attend the sit down dinner at Le Mastroquest restaurant with us albeit in a simpler manner. Let me know until tomorrow if you are going to make it or not.
Thank you and see you at the dinner!
Sincerely,
Rowena S. Korbijn

Solo Exhibition of Karina Dukalska: 3 – 12 September
Posted By Star Galerie on August 12, 2011
Biography
My name is Karina Dukalska. I was born on the 1st December 1993 in a small city in Poland called Kielce. At the age of six my family decided to move to Holland. Back then I thought my life was being torn apart, because I was leaving my family and home behind. But now, I look back, and can’t do anything else than thank my parents. This move changed my life, in a way that cannot be described. In my opinion it shaped me into the person I am today; a happy and powerful young woman.
I’ve been going to international schools from the very beginning. Currently I am a senior at the International School of The Hague. This multicultural environment I’ve been in for the last eleven years made me very open minded. My friends come from all over the world. They share their stories about their home lands and other places they moved to, and this boosts my passion of travelling. I have seen a mayor part of Europe, but also Kenya and Cuba. Yet I am still thirsty to see more. My priority on my long list right now is Australia, India and Mexico. I know that seeing these places will make me grow. Not only widen my cultural understanding, but also expand on my artistic perspectives.
Other than travelling, I love photography –in particular lomography- and to paint with oil paint. I’ve been painting at a gallery run by Margarita Garces since 2003. My first works were pure observations of nature, and now they have developed into a play of colour and contrast. In my opinion, this is because all of my interests are starting to merge together. My recent paintings present the play of colour that is very common in lomography, details and contrast found in photography, and the main objects painted are gathered from places I have seen. All my travelling is reflected in my paintings. Without the travelling, I would not be able to present the authentic atmosphere of the places in my paintings. I try to present the passionate feeling that I soak in during my trips. I hope that the viewers can connect to the places that I have painted, in the same manner as I do. This is because the way I see the world is expressed through my works. They are windows which reveal my appreciation to the world in which we live in. In the future I plan to continue painting, to show the true colours of places that seem to be dull or neglected.

Posted By Star Galerie on July 21, 2011
cordially invites you to the VERNISSAGE of A GROUP EXHIBITION on Sunday, 31st of July 2011 at 16.00 – 22.00.
by:
Scribe, Susana Gómez, Silvia Fratiloiu, Gienek Krawczyk
” An ART EXHIBITION ” of 4 Artists with diverse nationalities, both talented and renowned, will be showcased at the Star Galerie – Borneostraat 116, The Hague, The Netherlands.
Scribe
Born and grown up in Paris I have my head full of colours from Le Louvre exhibitions and full of textures from the Parisian fashion shows.
I still have difficulties to get rid of the rigid structure of engineering studies that can sometimes show in my paintings, abstract is one way to express the boiling energy I have in me. I am active in clay sculpture too.
Style: Definitively abstract with paintings, abstract and figurative with clay modelling.
Susana Gómez
I have always had a strong interest in drawing and painting.
In the last two years I changed my architectural inspiration, as the architect I am, and I decided to look for the way of expressing my ideas and feelings by means of the art of painting. So I have devoted myself to do what I like the most, to convey my vision of inner and outer world through painting.
I love the color, I love the light, I love to tell stories and I love to immerse myself in the world of the canvas.
Silvia Fratiloiu 
Inspired by Pablo Picasso, Silvia Fratiloiu’s work shows the desire to paint in an abstract fashion. Her painting technique was acquired through Maryolga Nieto and further modelled to her own feelings and emotions.
Other influences include nature and music, which may be experienced by the viewer of the present exhibition.
Gienek Krawczyk
After so many years (I am 80) I don’t remember when I started with Art, perhaps some 75 years ago with drawings, colors, portraits, figurative. Two years ago, I discovered a new kind of having fun in my hobby: to TRY ABSTRACT, why not?
Thanks to an incidental information at the EPO-ART-CLUB, I enjoy discovering how this new world in painting is even more infinite than we can imagine at this moment.

Origin-Light and Colours: 21 May – 07 June
Posted By Star Galerie on April 9, 2011
Star Galerie cordially invites you to Maryolga Nieto’s Solo Exhibition on May 21 and 22 at 18.30-22.00, at the Star Galerie: Borneostraat 116 The Hague.
RSVP: info@stargalerie.com
Why is it called Origin-Light and Colour?
In Origin-Light and Colour, life is the subject of Nieto’s work. Capturing is the essence of her artistic quest. One may enjoy the rich and forceful whites, while another perceives the amazing balance between the technical progress of changing colours from their original form, into a world of colour, episodes, cosmos, remote sub-realistic landscapes and textures. The impact of the dark and deep night that generates a shudder in the observer, immediately gratified by waves of colour that are presented in front of his eyes; a singular world, Nieto holds that appreciating a work of art requires and engagement and effort of the viewer. It is contemplative in a typical Latin American way, going beyond what is immediately visible.
Who is Maryolga Nieto?
Born in Caracas, Venezuela with more than 40 International exhibits around the world (Europe, South America and U.S.A. ) accounts for 25 years of artistic recognition at the age of 7; Institute of Arts in Venezuela, studies consecutively in Cheshire Academy, Connecticut; New York, and Miami, Florida; In 1991, after 13 years in the US, she returns to Venezuela; Current residence in the Netherlands since 1997. Member of the ASAP. Venezuelan Association of Plastic Artists. Member of Sociapb in the Netherlands. Currently directs the Arts extra-curriculum studies and conferences (The Art Club) for The American School of the Hague, British School in the Netherlands and the International School of The Hague.
Why is her work on the cutting edge of contemporary art?
After years of investigating new techniques Nieto began to discover and explore the possibilities of using the spectrum of UV light. She had also introduced new contemporary mediums transcending the suggested three dimensional of Jackson Pollock, Lucio Fontana and Rothko. In her paintings she added new techno elements. Suddenly, the impact of light explodes into the observer’s mind. The experience is a sudden life creative moment on it’s own for each individual. “I use visions, textures and images that are captured by the light and in one abrupt unexpected moment are reflected and transformed from their original form, into a complete different composition. The experience is a sudden life creative moment on it’s own for each individual…”
Before (without UV Light)
After (with UV Light)
What other media bring Origin-Light and Colours to life?
The characteristics represented here in this project Origin-Light and Colours, summarized and interesting proposal. This light represented by the artist, uses technical means such as, White light-Black light, as ways to stimulate the observation of the painting in two ways; the spectrum of visible light-day light or white light – the spectrum of invisible light – black light. This adds the usage of emptiness of – space – by the perpetual flow of sound waves, the movements with flash effects of a stroboscope alternating videos.
