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 […]
Richard Grayson
Had the young Karl Marx been adopted by the slapstick brothers of the same name, spending summers abroad with Noel Coward, he might have grown up to be English-Australian artist Richard Grayson. Theories of surplus value and dialectical materialism need panache and body language to overcome the leaden feet of history. Indeed in a pithy […]
BULL.MILETIC
BULL.MILETIC is the name of the artists’ duo founded by Synne Bull and Dragan Miletic in San Francisco, in 2000. The collective’s main interest lies in the question of how reality is perceived through different media. By investigating the nuances between presentation and representation, their work temporarily displaces the viewer and facilitates his or her […]
Heman Chong
Murmurmurmurmurmur (VeneziaAccademiaRemix), Heman Chong’s work for the Singapore Pavilion at the 50th Venice Biennale, reveals the author as someone who is developing a language of pluralism, rather than following a strict obedience to a specific medium. Alongside 20 monitors, the room features a light installation comprised of 38 pink fluorescents, an aural sample of language […]
Eva-Maria Bogaert
Eva-Maria Bogaert’s installations move along a fine line between artists’ films, painting and scientific experimentation. Concentrating on the phenomenon of time, they visualise continuities and processes. The resulting pictures of fleeting sequences of landscapes and structured fields define a kind of filmic painting. Eva-Maria Bogaert works with very simple, ‘poor’ materials, as for instance slides […]
