This year the engineering and architectural consultancy will be offering a varied programme with a concert by the Noviomagum Wind Orchestra (NMWO), an exhibition of paintings by Rita Vansteenlandt and presentations of various projects from Royal Haskoning. In addition interested parties will be able to take a guided tour around the building.

Noviomagum Wind Orchestra
The NMWO will carry you off to Paris and New York. Allowing you to be as inspired by New York as Frenchman Serge Lancen. This bustling city inspired him to write his Manhattan Symphony. Gershwin’s visit to Paris is described in music in An American in Paris. A splendid concert programme has been built up around these two famous compositions. With the many contrasts in style and atmosphere the 40 members of the NMWO orchestra, under the leadership of conductor Lex Bergink, promise a sparkling performance.

Rita Vansteenlandt’s landscapes of today
It is becoming increasingly obvious that Rita Vansteenlandt occupies a unique place in contemporary expressive art. Her style is characterized by the perception of an increasingly changing landscape and its beauty. She is an innovator both on a formal as well as on a purely expressive level, an innovator who continually builds on achievements as befits a true innovator. After all people do not build a monument to what does not or did not exist.
She literally and figuratively paints reality from an elevated spot and attitude in lyrical colours that are not at any stage unreal. An image that the beholder recognizes with surprise, without perhaps immediately noticing that the disturbing elements have been addressed and erased by colour and arrangement and through broad rhythmics. The reality in her oeuvre is a provocation for the pursuit of an act of glorious picturalism.
