From December 20, 2025, to January 4, 2026 Every summer, Maurice Christo van Meijel draws the clouds, the sea, and the beach. Always the same location (beach house 3 at Beachclub Texel), always the same technique (pastel chalk on paper), but in different sizes. Last summer, he worked primarily with large formats, resulting in a series of 80x60 cm works. The works are framed and are on display at Galerie Posthuys under the name Noordzee XL. Galerie Posthuys is open daily during the Christmas holidays—including holidays—from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Galerie Posthuys in De Koog is not a traditional gallery with classical works of art, but a meeting place where artists, visitors and buyers come together. Contemporary art Galerie Posthuys presents contemporary art. Some artists take the landscape and nature as their starting point, such as the dunes, beach and polders. With other artists, the starting point is less recognisable, but mainly tangible. Rhythm, handwriting and colour are more prominent here. The gallery has four rooms, each with its own exhibition. They regularly exhibit new work and can always be seen in the stockzolder space. In addition, ten new artists are introduced each year. Collaboration and activities Galerie Posthuys also has partnerships with other companies. For example, the gallery has been providing the art in Texelsuites since 2006. The exhibition of works of art in Bij Jef is also made by the gallery. Information about these works of art is available in the gallery. Some additional activities worth mentioning are the annual Haringnegendaagse (in June) and the open studio of Maurice Christo van Meijel – every first Sunday of the month during the summer period.
