ALICEDAY GRAND OPENING

Filed under: Art contemporain, Peinture - Illustration | Tags: , , |

The exhibition’s title Bambaataa, curated by Der Kommissare François Curlet,  has an onomatopoeic resonance, a remastered ethnic note… A ricocheting fugue on the manipulation and production of objects made with a edgy meticulousness: a horizontal response from Haim Steinbach; physical and analogical for Dewar & Gicquel; glacial and analytic by Robert Watts; the mises en scène charged with intense psychological tension from Liza-May Post; the forthright unstitching of urban appropriations by Frédéric Platéus and the inch-perfect products of Natalia Brilli.

Aliceday, Bruxelles. NEW LOCATION. 24.04.2010 > 29.05.2010.

THE VALUE OF VOID

Filed under: Art contemporain, Graphisme, Peinture - Illustration | Tags: , , |

Navid Nuur creates sculptures, installations and text works which often make use of the “aura” of a particular material. For instance, he produces a sculpture out of melting ice lollies just as easily as from blocks of Oasis polystyrene foam. In a nimble and poetic manner Nuur investigates the soul of the things that surround us.

De Hallen, Haarlem. 20.03.2010 > 06.06.2010.
