'BIRDS OF PARADISE'​​

The art of couture by RONALD VAN DER KEMP
& Hypercars

In MAC Museum Arts & Cars in SINGEN, GERMANY. 

Opening 31 October 2025 until October 2026. 

​

Wild and poetic! With BIRDS OF PARADISE, the MAC Museum Art & Cars in Singen presents a dazzling staging of Ronald van der Kemp’s artistic vision, the Dutch couturier who inspires international fashion houses and redefines couture. His designs are extravagant works of art that oscillate between poetry and provocation with their vibrant colors, sculptural silhouettes, and subtle drama.

Ronald van der Kemp worked internationally for over 25 years as designer and creative director for high-end international luxury brands before launching his own brand RVDK in 2014.

Driven by a conviction that the world was heading in an unsustainable direction he was determined to follow his own path of sustainability and inclusivity with “New ethics in luxury fashion” as leitmotiv while reinventing the notion of a couture house.

RVDK Ronald van der Kemp is the world’s first sustainable couture brand, a pioneering and influential force, recognised by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode amongst the world’s 30 leading brands invited to show at couture week in Paris.

Ronald’s work veers between art and fashion and stems from the innate idea that there are enough leftovers on this world to fuel his creations.

As a multimedia artist he creates intuitive collages encompassing couture, art, drawings, textiles, paintings, objects, jewellery, film, photography and sound.

“I believe that creativity and aesthetics, which touches people underneath the skin, will lead to much needed awareness, empathy and behavioural change in society.”

Ronald is a true inspirational advocate for his cause, speaking at international conferences, colleges and organisations.

At the MAC Museum Art & Cars, van der Kemp’s extravagant creations interact with hypercars to create a magical aura that is both poetic and provocative. These two spheres merge into one, driven by passionate creativity, technical perfection, and the courage to embrace new visions.

BIRDS OF PARADISE is more than an exhibition – it is an experience that transforms couture and automotive hyper-design into a fascinating symbiosis.
