The renowned novelist Marja Pruis will be engaging in a conversation about her latest literary masterpiece, 'Huiswerk', alongside Roos van Rijswijk. Aptly described as a typical Pruis creation, 'Huiswerk' is a work that captivates with its lively and associative narrative, multifaceted characters, inventive storytelling, and a touch of humor that will have readers chuckling throughout. However, beneath its seemingly light-hearted surface, the novel delves into more profound and unexpected themes. In 'Huiswerk', Clara Feij finds herself in the most splendid residence in Amsterdam, where she delegates all cleaning duties to a procession of foreign housekeepers seeking refuge. But when Rose enters her home, everything changes. How can you assist someone when you know nothing about them? And how can trust endure when all evidence points against her? 'Huiswerk' is a striking novel that explores the intricacies of intimate happiness and domestic betrayal. Marja Pruis, known for her debut novel 'Bloem' (2002), which delves into the realms of desire and expectations between men and women, and her subsequent work 'Atoomgeheimen' (2008), which tackles subjects of sexuality, intimacy, and the erosion of ideals, showcases her prowess as a writer. In addition to her role as a literary editor at De Groene Amsterdammer, Pruis also crafts insightful essays on various topics such as humor and beauty standards. Her collection of essays, 'Genoeg nu over mij', earned her the prestigious Jan Greshoff Prize for essay writing in 2019. Furthermore, Pruis has compiled a series of essays titled 'Boos Meisje. Over vrouwen en frictie' (2022), which delves into the complex predicament that girls and women find themselves in. They are expected to be kind yet assertive, but not excessively so, lest they be labeled as angry girls. Save the date! Marja Pruis, along with many other talented writers and poets, will also be gracing the stage at the grand festival evening, Saturday Night Unlimited, on January 20th. This event, hosted at Theater aan het Spui and Filmhuis Den Haag, offers a diverse range of programs across five stages, allowing attendees to curate their own unique experience.

Uncover the secret of the success of the Haagse School art movement and embark on a journey to a time of fishing boats, fishermen, and the early railway lines. Around 1860, The Hague experienced a flourishing art scene. Renowned artists such as Jozef Israëls, the Maris brothers, Jan Hendrik Weissenbruch, and Hendrik Willem Mesdag settled in the city and depicted the world around them in innovative ways. Most paintings from the Haagse School showcase the Dutch landscape. With the availability of pre-made paint in tubes and the expansion of new railway lines, artists could venture outdoors to work. They created numerous oil studies on-site, which served as inspiration during the colder winter months in the studio. While the landscapes were realistically painted, the focus was on capturing light and atmosphere. A famous quote by Willem Maris states: "I do not paint cows, I paint light." Every district in The Hague hosts evening openings at the Kunstmuseum, featuring free bus transportation, drinks, music, and a stage program. This lecture serves as preparation for the (free) museum visit on Wednesday, March 20th, from the Scheveningen and Segbroek districts. Interested individuals can reserve a spot for the lecture promptly, as availability is limited. The Kunstmuseum Den Haag is hosting this event.
