It’s all about making beautiful things happen
As a multi-talented person, I love working on projects. The reason why I started my own company in 1999, ‘Make Them Love You’. My personal motto for the things I do.
It’s a great journey, giving me the chance to be involved in communications, concept & product development, project management & support, or ‘sharing my love for Rotterdam with you’.
In November 2012 I became partner in SiLO – a cool Rotterdam accounting firm for the Art, Culture, Hospitality and Creative Sector. I also decided in 2012 to use my own name, instead of Make Them Love You (MTLY), for the things I communicate online. I like my roots, so don’t be confused when I’ll bill you through MTLY 😉
Tour in Rotterdam, I love you
I use Rotterdam as my canvas in creating special tours for you. If you like a real local experience with a professional very enthusiastic friendly tour-guide, then look no further as what I do is perfect for small groups. It depends on what you like, where I’ll focus on during the tour. Art, architecture, food, history, nature, urban life, hot spots … we have it all. You can find me on SpottedbyLocals, where I blog since 2009 about my amazing city and often in food Valhalla Markthal – where I guide groups.
As trained artist, I make things
I am known for my immense database of photographs taken from my daily life which I use in my art work, designs and site-specific projects.
- minimass® TINY ART, unique small tales to wear or share (for sale)
- Together with my architect friends, we create the world of wooll-e, a Dutch designed no-drilling-needed wall lamp with changeable sleeves – very cool (for sale)
- The Mobile Guerilla Knits, an homage to my muses – the selected Facebook profile pictures that inspired me to make the cool-in-wool portraits (they’re all great and not-for-sale)
Peripheral Dialogue
Each of my projects has its own needs and dynamics to ‘Make Them Love – Your idea, product, dream, challenge .. ‘. Sometimes I develop opportunities for talent to accelerate or showcasing the very best contemporary art: by working across local and international frameworks and collaborating with others. Support artists, galleries and small organizations with their business development: by coaching, curating, representation, account management, communications, visual reporting or organizing bespoke art tours for national and international professionals.
Anne-Marie Ros Projects proudly presented a curated booth-group-show ‘Peripheral Dialogue : this side of paradise’ with works by the artists Anna Tanner USA, Jeroen Bodewits NL, John Curran USA and Mirjam Somers NL at The Manchester Contemporary, 27 – 30 September, 2012.
I was one of the four guest curators for the successful International summer art exhibition ‘4 the Korenbeurs Schiedam‘, which took place from June 30th until September 16th, 2012. During ‘4 De Korenbeurs’ I developed a side program with free art-tours in the Korenbeurs.
During ‘Art Rotterdam 2012’ Anne-Marie Ros Projects created ‘Paviljoen Rotterdam’, a successful side-art-fair with young Rotterdam Galleries in the 1300m2 Cité building at Laan op Zuid.
In 2011 and 2012 Anne-Marie Ros was chairman of the Rotterdam Gallery foundation and helped develop a communication strategy and new communication tools.
