Nevin Aladag
Aladag’s artistic practice doesn’t argue from the position of a loss of cultural identity in migration and Diaspora. On the contrary it draws its content and contexts out of the convergence of these geographic and cultural spaces. It discovers new forms of participation in the subcultures of popular culture “genres” of the suburbs and minorities. […]
Lisi Raskin
Lisi Raskin 1974 in Miami (USA). Lives in New York. Technology and science are fields of wonder for children and adults alike. Chemistry sets, video games, and most recently the realm of the Internet have become tools that provide people, at any age, with the fuel and elements necessary to further their desire to explore […]
Andrew Hurle
For the past fifteen years, I have used the technologies of mechanical and digital image reproduction as both a subject and a medium for artistic work. This practice has evolved from the simple use of photocopiers to produce collage ‘pictures’ into a more thorough and introspective examination of the structure and process of the machines […]
Mathieu Mercier
The starting point: manufactured objects, elements of construction and interior organisation lifted from the field of mass utilitarian production, primary material of works that often echoes the historically referential forms (Suprematism, Constructivism, Geometric Abstraction). […] Filing, arranging, sorting out selectively. Eliminating. But also inhabiting and residing. Finding one’s place, holding one’s place, staying in place. […]
Ronnie van Hout
It often seems that the majority of the artwork presented by Ronnie van Hout is a self-portrait. He is usually there in one form or another, acting in a video as himself or one of his many characters. It could be as a photograph of himself, or a desperate voice on a tape, or even […]
Shiro Masuyama
Shiro Masuyama is an artist who hides in a dark corner to observe popular aspects in life that are hardly ever noticed. His interests are directed to various common phenomena that generally do not matter much in our lives. The viewpoint his work adopts is usually quite simple: for example, he observes what people do […]
Lisa Strömbeck
In the tradition of Nordic Film and literature, such as the films of Ingmar Bergman, there is a focus on the ‘small world’, and its flows of desires and meanings in everyday life. Themes that are recurrent in the video and performance-based artwork of Lisa Strömbeck, whose work is at once intensely private and very […]
Iris van Dongen
The work of Iris van Dongen is always instilled by gloomy romanticism. In recent years she has been producing drawings several meters in height, their sheer size giving them a quality one can hardly escape. Though van Dongen’s work comes about mainly in an intuitive manner, the theme ‘man tormented by demons’ seems to keep […]
Germaine Koh
Germaine Koh makes works that pivot out onto the possibility of their reception. Koh’s confidence in the artwork’s ability to add meaning to the world combines what she can reasonably expect to believe about its significance, with a faith in what she cannot know or anticipate about it. […] You are not required to know […]
Kristina Braein
Perhaps another way to describe Bræin’s ingenious commentaries, reactions, and inversions of the main logic of any room is to say that the artist’s installations advocate the out-of-the-question. In the spirit of the impractical, they shed light on the impossible, the invisible, and the unspeakable, which contest the programmed organisation of the surrounding architecture.Bræin’s focus […]
