As musician (piano) and artistic director of the Ives Ensemble, Snijders is known for his thoughtful and sensitive performances of contemporary music. He is also an art collector and interested in the visual arts of today.

According to Snijders his show is bringing together seven artists whose practice is permeated with the idea of obsessiveness and attention to detail through repetition. The exhibition features works by Jill Baroff, Tom Benson, Susan Collis, David Connearn, Károly Keserü, Katie Paterson and Ignacio Uriarte and includes drawing, painting, sound installation, photography and a whole lot of counting.
