Sigurdur Gudmundsson

Sigurdur Gudmundsson Work from his oeuvre. “These photographs, influenced by Fluxus and conceptual art, and collectively titled Situations, construct a certain poetic and philosophical vision through a series of staged situations where the artist himself is a stand-in for a persona caught in different circumstances. Each mise-en-scène frames human existence in a humorous and pointed […]

Leon Chew

Leon Chew Vasarely Foundation. Work from “Architecture was always defined in relation to it’s nature. Either nature is a model for architecture or it’s opposite. Whether considered different or similar, the assumption that they are two distinct entities is questionable, however. First, because the terms ‘architecture’ and ‘nature’ are intellectual constructs through which we comprehend […]

JSBJ – Bartholomew

JSBJ – Bartholomew (group exhibition) @ 12 Mail. Works by Jeremie Egry, Martin Oppel, and Samuel Francois. “Physiological transformation, historical category, individual and collective statement, adolescence is fully marked by ambivalence and confusion. Despite this diversity, references relating to this transitional period continue to grow in importance, often to become the main components in the […]

Jacob Riddle

Jacob Riddle Work from .jpg. “All digital files are made up of information. This is the biggest difference between what is virtual and what is physical. .jpg is an acknowledgment of the digital information that creates what we view as an image. Beyond just acknowledging the image information, the code is manifested in the physical […]

Artie Vierkant

Artie Vierkant Work from Image Objects. Vierkant has an exhibition at Club Midnight in Berlin that opened tonight. “Image Objects are a series of works which exist somewhere between physical sculptures and altered documentation images.

Travis Kent

Travis Kent Work from Hope You’re Well. “Travis Kent’s recent photographs in “Hope You’re Well,” his first solo exhibition, are devoid of irony. Though many of the images approach cliché––the back of a head against a pristine rainbow, a hipster couple kissing in the trash-laden kitchen of a house party, a crocodile in a murky […]

Mark Soo

Mark Soo Work from his oeuvre. “Mark Soo’s work focuses on the associations between culture, technology and the history of representation, and their impact on questions of subjectivity. Soo’s current exhibition “Madame Guillotine” is concerned with relations of image production and photography, as seen through depictions of the guillotine and associated images dating from the […]

Cameron Crone

Cameron Crone Work from his oeuvre. “I was trained as a photographer, but I never made photos like Lee Friedlander or Robert Frank. By that, I mean I never had a mode of working where I would go out into the world and make photographs intuitively. I made photos of specific things that I was […]

James Hyde

James Hyde Work from Inhere. “James Hyde’s paintings and objects are not about the act of seeing or about the world, but how they interact. Each painting is a membrane of the encounter between self and world. Its form can be understood as a perspective on to the world as much as a demonstration of […]

Marina Weigl

Marina Weigl Work from The Horse and I. “My work is a metamorphosis of memories and emotions. It is like a poem and tries to use poetic imagery to visualize a feeling of lightness. Creatures between dream and reality are presented. I have tried to create a state of intoxication, of adventure, curiosity, something of […]
