PICTURING NATURE

Filed under: Art contemporain | Tags: , , |



In the exhibition Picturing Nature Ruth van Beek presents collages of animals and landscapes. Emmeline de Mooij‘s installations, performances and photographs deal with the contradiction between complex modern life, which is filled with material things and the nostalgic primitive.
In a seductive manner, Eleni Kamma sheds new light upon the structures of our society, our surroundings and our architecture. After her 1-year residency at Wiels, she finalized and published the book Enlever et Entretenir, that forms the starting point of her eponymous exhibition in the Project Room.
