Wesley Meuris

Wesley Meuris Work from his oeuvre. “Beginning with an interest in the interaction between architecture and human conditioned-behaviour, I became intrigued by the conditions that coalesced around the making of cages for animals. The implicit requisite is, of course, that the cages be ‘liveable’ with respect to a particular animal, so that it may survive […]

Lorenzo Durantini

Lorenzo Durantini Work from his oeuvre. “I am interested in freeing up space between figuration and abstraction. The tension between recognising meaning while interrogating its very possibility has pushed me to the periphery of representation. My work explores the detritus of the photographic studio through playful sculptural interventions that question its role as a site […]

Johan Rosenmunthe

Johan Rosenmunthe Work from Silent Counts. “The point of departure for Johan Rosenmunthe is a childlike fascination with stones – ordinary objects, mysterious and silent but carrying a hidden story. The artist applies to them his nostalgic, scientific and philosophical point of view and presents them as the traces of this intriguing visual tale entitled […]

Tom Ireland

Tom Ireland Work from Sierra Blanca. “My more recent practice explores the relationship(s) between modernist art and design practices and the western space programme of the mid/late 20th century as proponents of interrelated aesthetic and ideological values. My practice is becoming increasingly reductive with the bare minimum of intervention in source materials and with greater […]

Marius Engh

Marius Engh Work from his oeuvre. “Marius Engh’s work seems to derive from the encounter between minimalist forms and prosaic elements. This apparent formalism, however, dissolves upon closer observation, in an unexpectedly political twist. That is why in “Lycanthropic Chamber”, his solo exhibition at Standard in 2008, one could see nothing that physically resembled a […]

Daniel Kukla

Daniel Kukla Work from the The Edge Effect. “In March of 2012, I was awarded an artist’s residency by the United States National Park Service in southern California’s Joshua Tree National Park. While staying in the Park, I spent much of my time visiting the borderlands of the park and the areas where the low […]

Bettina Buck

Bettina Buck Work from her oeuvre. “Buck’s practice is decidedly anti-modernist working with assemblage, collage and reconfigurations of existing, mundane, often found materials; regularly reclaiming industrial or industrially produced components. Materials and objects with traces of an alternative history and existence – carpet, found posters, aged foam, latex, plastic are selected, re-imagined and combined to […]

Yves Klein

Yves Klein Work from his oeuvre. “Due to the fact that I have painted monochromes for fifteen years, Due to the fact that I have created pictorial immaterial states, Due to the fact that I have manipulated the forces of the void, Due to the fact that I have sculpted with fire and with water […]

Ellsworth Kelly

Ellsworth Kelly Work from his oeuvre. “American artist Ellsworth Kelly is universally recognized as one of the most important purveyors of American abstraction. Born in Newburgh, New York, Kelly studied at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn until he was drafted into the U.S. Army at the age of 20, spending the majority of his military […]

Ole Martin Lund Bø

Ole Martin Lund Bø Work from With Day for Night. “…The title refers to a cinematographic technique used to simulate a night scene, while shooting at day time. Tinted glass, metallic foil, dark wooden boards, a furry tennis ball. Familiar features from storefronts, lowriders, executive offices and clay courts. These works are extractions, rather than […]
