Florian Slotawa Work from Hotelarbeiten and others. “A nondescript zone lies close to the start of Kurfürstenstraße. This should be the core of the city. Neither entirely residential nor commercial nor administrative, this curiously neglected quarter of central Berlin exudes a sense of fun’s absence. It’s where Florian Slotawa likes to work. His new studio […]

Nathan Baker Work from Seminal. Spend some time on Baker’s website, he has a wealth of great projects. “‘Seminal’ critically examines the dynamic between mass media production and pop culture internalization. The work operates under the assumption that through its dependance on mass media, the contemporary ideal of pop culture has abandoned content through its […]

Nicholas Knight Work from the Sentence Diagrams, Frame & Photo, and Taking Pictures. Interview with Nicholas Night: Jordan: In much of your work, there are underlying (and sometimes blatant) references to the production, deconstruction and obfuscation of the original (sentence, work of art, floor, frame, etc).

Eyal Pinkas Work from the series Covers. “Under the conditions of the camera, objects and spaces reveal themselves in a gentle process of exposure. They perform a change, showing gradually different potential appearances that assumingly originate in their own fantasies. This search for the objects’ imaginable worlds within different surroundings has become a constant departure […]

Wesley Meuris Work from Cages (my title, his works are various cages in the series), Botanical World Archive, and Swimming Pool. “Since the nineties Wesley Meuris(*Lier,1977) has been fascinated by our relationship with architecture, and more especially by the way we convert particular patterns of thought, needs and desires into functions and codes of behaviour, […]

Glue Society Work from their oeuvre, but not from a titled body of work. The Glue Society has no sweeping statement I could find, nor any statement at all. The only information I could dig up was a few names, and the fact that they are an creative collective based in Sydney and New York. […]

Anu Vahtra Work from Installations. There is a great animated gif/video of one of her installations here. I couldn’t find a statement or review for Vahtra’s work, but I did not want that to stop me from posting it. Vahtra uses Xerox prints to create a false wall in the gallery and imply the space […]
