Sophia Tabatadze
In “Humancon Undercon” (2007), Tabatadze returns to installation after a year spent working mainly in video and performance. The work shows the influence of the latter in that it introduces for the first time an element of fictional narrative. The artist imagines the construction of an apartment block in her native Tbilisi, whose story embodies […]

The new Dutch neighbourhood Leidsche Rijn (Utrecht) is an example of an area where high expectations converge. This new district is the setting for […] the biggest new housing estate in the Netherlands. It is one of the most extensive new development projects in Europe, set to accommodate almost 80.000 people in 2015. [Libia Castro`s […]
Can Altay
Can Altay works with video, documentation and installation. His works take the viewer along on tours of the city, involving him in the everyday life of the street and making him aware of the life of certain people, who have made themselves a niche and developed existential structures within the urban environment. Altaydocuments everyday practices on […]
Attila Szücs
What can explain Szücs’s obsessed realism? Which is, of course, not realism either in the philosophical sense of the word; on the other hand the rhetoric of the Szücsian depiction is after all based upon a realist method and the problematic of the grip on reality. Szücs paints from photographs. He finds, collects and examines […]
Gert Robijns
Belgian artist Gert Robijns confronts us with a “super-reality” in his work: a universe that exists parallel to the one that manifests itself visually. In order to make us experience this world, Robijns analyses and distils various aspects of our reality. Images, sounds, objects, and our surroundings are reconsidered as singular, characteristic entities. Thus the […]
Reynold Reynolds
Reynold Reynolds’s work utilizes film and video in a fine art context, developing projects to be shown both as short films and gallery installations. He employs the language and methods of cinema to explore physical and psychological trauma and the complexities of alienation. His work emphasizes visual power and aesthetic innovation over narrative development. Stressing […]
Jorge Queiroz
There are different layers in my work – forms, signals, spaces, light, energy, sound, colour, intensity, more or less real time and surface. The line between the part inside and the part outside is nearly nothing: the silhouette and the outline cannot be regarded solely as limits, but as a way of representing on paper. […]
Alex Morrison
Morrison’s practice spans an interest in architecture, memory and projection, identity and authenticity, notions of domestic and public space and the contentions arising from these delineations. He holds a particular interest in how a museum’s politics and anxieties surrounding the perception of art works can be readily applied to the policing of action, use and […]
Katharina Löfström
Perhaps, the combination of a film image showing a football game with a mixed soundscape – of an air conditioning unit fighting against the heat, a refrigerator joining in this fight, the intrinsic high-pitched buzz of an ageing Korean television set, and, far away in the background, barely perceptible but extremely loud screams – reminds […]
Roderick Hietbrink
Hietbrink’s work investigates to what extent the experience of the space surrounding us can be manipulated, allowing us to reinterpret it. Elements such as shape, structure, construction and acoustics, which all lie within the architectonic framework, form an important role within his practice. By manipulating these spatial elements, he is able to transform the characteristics […]
