SUPERFICIAL HYGIENE

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

altblog – Magali ReusSuperficial Hygiene aims to introduce to the Netherlands a set of practices of a younger generation of artists who employ, adapt, and corrupt the grammar of our accelerated environment to propose a new understanding of the relation between the mediated image and text, and objects and the physical body. The most recent developments in image production allow for a new kind of realism, one, which has caused a further rift between objects and their representation. As a result, our physical relationship with images and things in our daily environment is changing. 
Selection of Websites: Tauba Auerbach, Helen Marten, Erkka Nissinen, Trisha Baga, Magali Reus, Elizabeth Price, Erik van Lieshout & Kelley Walker, Ed Atkins, Marlie Mul, Nina Beier & Simon Dybbroe Moller, Florian & Michael Quistrebert and Anne de Vries.

L’ÈRE VULGAIRE PASSERA

Filed under: Photographie | Tags: , |

altblog – Slava MogutinIn 1792, revolutionary France establishes the Republican calendar and thereby puts an end to the subsequently called “ère vulgaire” (EV). In 1989, another Revolution eliminates Stalinism in Russia and East Germany. This is the beginning of a new era for the youth of Eastern Europe but also for the West where the awareness of an historic paradigm shift raises.
The exhibition “l’ère vulgaire passera” shows the work of four photographers who echo this major shift: Aleksandr Schumow, Andreas Fux, Slava Mogutin & Brian Kenny.
Guest curator : Patrik Schedler.

Galerie Esther Woerdehoff (Pop-Up, 16 rue du Perche), Paris. 28.11.2013 > 21.12.2013.


REFERENCE POINTS

Filed under: Art contemporain, Photographie | Tags: , , |

altblog – Nicolas Lamas - Partial ViewThe work of Nicolas Lamas is based on a process reflection about space, time, culture and science. Exploring different scientific fields such as astronomy or physics, Lamas formalizes his questioning using various media, playing on codes of monstration, comparing objects which seem a priori to be opposites, to elicit meaning and drama. The young Peruvian artist based in Belgium creates a world crammed with possibilities, creating permanent interactions, ellipses, attractions and repulsions, inversions between horizontality and verticality, incompatibilities between vacuum and matter, distortions of logic.

LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE GOT HERE FIRST

altblog – Dominique Somers and Egon Van Herreweghe - 01altblog – Dominique Somers and Egon Van Herreweghe -02New duo-exhibition with collaborative and individual work by the artists Dominique Somers and Egon Van Herreweghe in Stilll. The content consists of images reproduced from other books, all belonging to the library of the Antwerp FotoMuseum. By using different modes to reproduce these finds – scanning, photocopying, photographing – the original visual material is manipulated once more. Imperfections of image surface and duplicating techniques are marked. Point of departure was the creation of a book, a jury price given to the artist during Art Brussels at the POPPOSITIONS off fair.

Stilll is a gallery working with artist who use photography as a medium. Expect sculpture, painting, drawing, performance, video… from a photographical point of view.
