In my videos I mainly focus on the minimal narratives based on psychological states and social situations in which issues about negotiation of power, identity and gender are raised. I’m interested in what defines different groups and communities of people, and how people interact as social individuals in relation to a community or social situation, […]
Kimberly Clark
The artists Iris van Dongen, Eveline van de Griend and Ellemieke Schoenmaker have been working together under the name Kimberly Clark since 2005. Their photographs, sculptures and installations offer a simultaneously hedonistic and deeply disturbing view of nightlife, showing the concentrated remains of party euphoria imbued with explicit signs of psychological fluctuation. Often verging on […]
Thomas Lerooy
Thomas Lerooy’s sculptures and drawings question various historical tendencies in the visual arts by means of an imaginative play with images. Starting from a seemingly restrained figurative language, Lerooy creates a universe with endless possibilities where one image spontaneously proceeds from another, creating a labyrinthine mindscape of multilayered meanings and misleadings. Transience and death are […]
Pernille Koldbech Fich
(…) Oscillating between reality and fiction, between the actual personality of the portraitee and the diffuse semi-fictionality which, although inherent in all photographs, cannot be fully grasped – this is precisely what this compelling atmosphere of past and present achieves, this blending of reality and fiction, this merging of photography, painting and film that triggers […]
Freek Wambacq
Freek Wambacq’s work, which often draws its inspiration from chance encounters and wayward discoveries, investigates the nexus of sculpture, installation and architecture. While it can be seen in a critical relation to Minimalism and Arte Povera, it playfully undermines their cerebral rigour with a wry sense of humour. Unlike Arte Povera, for instance, Wambacq’s practice […]
Mai Yamashita + Naoto Kobayashi
Mai Yamashita + Naoto Kobayashi are a Japanese artist couple and started to work together in 2000. After graduating from the Tokyo University of the Arts they moved to Germany, where they have been living and working since.Their mostly performative works are condensations of everyday life, whose simple structure and deliberately absurd methodology allow them […]
Kajsa Dahlberg
Kajsa Dahlberg, who graduated from the Malmö Art Academy in 2003 and completed the Whitney Program in New York in 2008, works with image, text and sound. In her practice she explores the construction and mediation of narratives in the context of political representation, history and identity, while investigating their relations to the medium itself. […]
Martina Hoogland Ivanow
The photographs of Martina Hoogland Ivanow are characterised by a dark, mesmerizing aesthetic, conveying a heightened presence which is at once real and poetic. Hers are small stories told by way of one image. Hoogland Ivanow’s latest project (and upcoming book), “Far Too Close”, is a visual meditation on both physical and emotional distance – […]
Ane Mette Hol
My work focuses on the relations between drawing and the reproduction of objects such as photocopies, printed matter or masking paper (e.g. rolled up in a corner or stretched out on the floor). Spectators must take a closer look to discover that the objects as well as the traces and marks are carefully drawn by […]
Awst & Walther
The Welsh-German artist duo Manon Awst and Benjamin Walther began their collaboration in 2006. Their backgrounds in architecture and theatre strongly influence their approach to space and place – an awareness that resonates in their sculptures, performances and installations. The artists’ choice of unconventional sculptural material is determined by aesthetic and haptic qualities in relation […]
