Put in the agenda! Z-Files # 13 is on Thursday 29 October in the hall of the Rotterdamse Schouwburg. This Z-Files is then entirely devoted to sculptor, graphic artist and painter Louis van Roode (1914-1964). The reason for this is the restoration of the wall painting in the Olvehflat, popularly known as the Lijnbaanflat. In addition, attention is paid to the art of reconstruction, in which Louis van Roode played a leading role.
