She lived there with her mother, Gine Hoogendijk, until she was eight years old. Her grandfather, Dirk Albert Hoogendijk, was a prominent art dealer. Hoogendijk grew up surrounded by artists, gallery owners, theater makers, actors, and dancers. After moving to Overijssel, she spent a lot of time in the studio of her stepfather, the painter Roelof Frankot. In Amsterdam, Hoogendijk completed her education at the Vrije School and became involved in the art scene in the early 1990s through her relationship with artist Rob Scholte. In her early twenties, she became the director of Rob Scholte BV and contributed to his monumental wall and ceiling painting, &#8220;Apr\u00e8s Nous le D\u00e9luge,&#8221; in Nagasaki, Japan. At the end of 1994, a car bomb attack occurred in Amsterdam on the vehicle they were in. Hoogendijk returned to the capital in 1997. She founded Micky Hoogendijk Productions and became the creative director of Supperclub, a groundbreaking artist society. She gained national fame in the Netherlands starting in 2000 with a role in the television soap opera &#8220;Goede Tijden, Slechte Tijden.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In 2002, Hoogendijk moved to Los Angeles to study method acting at the Eric Morris Actors Workshop. She appeared in &#8220;Raising Helen&#8221; alongside Kate Hudson, worked with Rutger Hauer, and lent her face to the creation of a character in the video game &#8220;Killzone.&#8221; In 2006, she founded the film production company Dramatic Beat and developed a video site for young filmmakers. The New York Independent Film &amp; Video Festival nominated her in 2008 as &#8216;Best Actress in a Feature Film&#8217; for her role in &#8220;Blindspot.&#8221; In the Netherlands, Hoogendijk appeared in various films and series and worked as a model for designers like Mart Visser. Until 2012, she worked as a television and film actress and presenter.<\/p>\n<p>The camera that Hoogendijk&#8217;s mother, Gine, gave her shortly before passing away in 2009 proved to be a life-changing gift: the camera became the guiding thread of her existence. In San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Austin, she honed her skills as a photographer, focusing on autonomous portrait photography. In 2012, some of her photos were exhibited for the first time at Art Platform in Los Angeles. In the following years, Hoogendijk frequently exhibited her work in the United States and the Netherlands, as well as in Belgium, Great Britain, Turkey, Canada, Mexico, Colombia, and Japan. In 2015, she had her first solo exhibition in Amsterdam at the Eduard Planting Gallery, titled &#8220;The Other Side of Fear Is Freedom.&#8221; Her first museum retrospective, &#8220;Through the Eyes of Others I See Me,&#8221; was shown at Museum Jan van der Togt in Amstelveen in 2017. Simultaneously, a publication with an overview of her work was released by Terra Publishing. Hoogendijk is represented by galleries in Amsterdam, London, Houston, and Mexico City.<\/p>\n<p>After numerous travels around the world, Hoogendijk has been living in the Netherlands again since 2018. She initially had her own studio and gallery in Hoogeloon, North Brabant. She exhibits her photography both domestically and internationally, and since 2020, also her bronze sculptures. In 2022, Waanders Publishers released the monograph &#8220;<span style=\"color: #bfa07a;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #bfa07a;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bol.com\/nl\/nl\/p\/kracht-kwetsbaarheid-micky-hoogendijk\/9300000071355830\/\">KRACHT kwetsbaarheid<\/a><\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Micky Hoogendijk, fotografie en sculpturen,&#8221; written by Karin van Lieverloo. In the spring of 2023, Hoogendijk returned to Amsterdam. She now lives and works in the Amsterdam School monument Huize Zonnewijzer, where Gallery The Ones at Home is also located, in collaboration with garden designer Erwin Stam. Here, Hoogendijk creates new work and showcases it upon request.<\/p>\n<p>In April 2024, Studio Micky Hoogendijk proudly announced the unveiling of \u201cThe Ones\u201d at the ECC Personal Structures exhibition during the Venice Biennale. Micky Hoogendijk, known for her introspective work, presented her new addition to the series, \u201cThe Ones I \u2013 Larger Than Life version,\u201d a monumental four-meter-tall bronze sculpture that testifies to the harmony between vulnerability and strength, and the importance of unity among people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Micky Hoogendijk was born in Amsterdam.
