The beginning of the Gallery

“Anything you can imagine, you can create”.

This is the core belief of Simone. In addition to a management career, building a house herself was always one of her dreams.

Simone bought the 520m2 property in 2018, made plans and started working with a contractor to renovate it. After a couple of months of construction, the house was not finished and the budget was tight. “I’m going to finish it myself,” Simone decided. She taught herself jobs and she went to work on the weekends. Pouring her own floors, fixing ceilings and walls, designing furnitures by re-using second hand items. She created architraves instead of doors, build her own bed from steel and created four meter long lamps.

This was how ART[s] Gallery Simone Jansen was created in 2021. An attractive house with big walls, perfect for beautiful, inspiring art. Her passion for art, crafts, interior design and architecture all come together. Artists are given a unique place where they can exhibit their works. Art lovers can visit the works in a beautiful place.

Filmtip: the renovation of the house and Simone’s story were part of a NPO2 broadcast of “BinnensteBuiten”. Watch her story in 8 min via this link

LEVEN! A LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE WITH REGIONAL DISCOVERIES

LIVING IN AN ART GALLERY

When Simone Jansen starts searching for art for her own home  -a place that she mainly renovated herself-  she doesn’t feel comfortable in the formal and sometimes distant galleries. Instead of giving up her search, she takes matters into her own hands: she starts a gallery of 415 m2 in her own home with works of (inter)national artists. “I love to support artists and art lovers in their search for unique artwork in an informal setting”.

The interest among artists appears to be great, there is even a waiting list for the unique gallery. “Interaction is very important in the gallery. The artists are presented as a team and they are present on the open days. We celebrate successes together and I share client responses and sales in the group. As a result, everything is very transparent. For me, ART[s] is a hobby in addition to my job as a manager at a bank, so the gallery has planned exhibitions every two months instead of a continuous opening.” A hobby that she carries out with great dedication during the entire process: if a visitor decides to purchase an art work, Simone will bring and install the art herself by appointment. 

“Visitors are very enthusiastic. With the purchase of art, you bring soul and craftsmanship into your home. I really enjoy helping clients, it makes me happy. And to be able to live among all the artworks, that is a great wealth”, Simone concludes.

The house was published in the magazine Art of Living in 2022.

When you know, you know. It’s a feeling. One that we got when we were stood in front of Sophie de Vos astonishing photography. We were immediately taken in by the story behind her work. Truth is, we happened to be at ART[s] Gallery Simone Jansen by pure luck. And I’m glad that we were. Simone’s team is outstanding. Not only did they print the works to dimensions that would fit into our home, but they also took care of delivery and installation. They truly deserve a golden star.Jeanne-Marie en Kees

HAPPY CLIENT, HAPPY US

“Sometimes your eyes come across unique pieces that are meant to be. I had that experience during ART[s] Gallery Simone Jansen’s opening exhibition. I saw a textile work of  Marianne Kemp and combined it with a black work of Laura de Wilde. The combination was love at first sight and I knew right there and then: “this is what I’m looking for!” Really happy to enjoy two works in my living room”.

“The tranquility in combination with the depth, which you see when you look closer, immediately touched me when I saw this work by Ans de Kruyf. Her great work fits perfectly in our dining room. Her art is present without being dominant. From every angle you see something different and the work blends in with the environment. I’ve been looking for sincere art for years. I found that ART[s] Gallery Simone Jansen in Noordwijk. I will definitely come back for the selection of works and for the warmth and advice of the owner of the gallery. I am curious what I will discover there in the coming years.”
