29.03.2026
Shofukan is a Japanese cultural centre housed in a former kindergarten from 1929, designed by architect A.J. van Doorn in the style of the Amsterdam School. Tucked away in one of the last intact hofjes of Rotterdam, behind the Charloisse Kerksingel, the centre has for over twenty years been home to the practice of classical Japanese disciplines including tea ceremony, ikebana, calligraphy, and aikido, alongside a traditional teahouse and a Japanese garden. Shofukan closed its doors at this location in April 2026, Het Zuid Manifest was the last moment for the community and public to visit it.
On Sunday 29 March at 15:00, Het Zuid Manifest presented PSYCHOMAGIE, a seance by Paul Goede.
Goede does not circulate any visual documentation or descriptions of his seances, these can only be experienced in person.
Paul Goede's seance was presented in collaboration with Stokker Jaeger.
Stokker Jaeger is a project space initiated in 2025 by Lily van der Stokker to host the Stokker Jaeger Foundation. Its first exhibition, De Kelder, was a group show with friends of
Lily van der Stokker and marked the beginning of an ongoing exploration of the space and its possibilities. Stokker Jaeger operates independently, without positioning itself as an alternative to a gallery or art spaces in general.
